I wondered why so ...quiet? (that element mentioned above) and then I realized ...busy busy busy with prayers. Always I hear: "we (israel) are a democracy! this is democracy! the voice of the people!" Guess what? True deomocracy allows for dissent. (not just standing up and arguing in knesset) Democracy allows for free and unbiased press. When democracy does NOT allow for dissent it is no longer democracy. Guess what it is called when one predominat group takes control and squashes dissent? and allows their military to make legal decisions? A Civil society also allows for "manners". Thank you, Rita, for your comment and perspective. The "likes of you" is always welcome. Never mind bullies who have so great a fear factor that they can not be a normal gentleman. I often wonder how many psychologists the government employs (Hah) in order to understand the motivations of those who take their own life and others, in revenge. Isn't living always the Best Revenge? I hope always to convince. We must ALL work to convince. Please to Stick around...you will be able to see the workings of "some" minds and the psychology of why there is such a problem with "creative" solutions towards peace. Shmarta Harry |
