I wish everyone who reads this post go to the public library and pick up a book by A.B.C. Whipple entitled To The Shores Of Tripoli. I've owned a copy for a decade, and it will put things in perspective. Essentially, this will never end, and there will never be peace in the Middle East.

Faith may lead to inner peace, but opposing faiths is the recipe for never ending conflict... It's when God is on BOTH sides that things get ugly.

While I support Israel's right to exist, it's occupation of Gaza after the wars should have ended long ago. The US does not still occupy Japan, or Germany, or Korea. Why do we support a government that keeps occupying lands that should LONG ago have been returned to it's people..?

Israel should regain the high moral ground by returning to the borders decreed for it after WWII. THEN bomb the crap out of anybody that attacks THAT...

But just to show I can see both sides of the coin ....

Imagine if we had ceded Texas to the Jewish people after the Holocaust... George Bush would be a 'freedom fighter' (or as we would put it 'terrorist') this very day

HI DIKI

ISRAEL is not occupy GAZZA for 2 years , but the Palestinians CONTINUE SENDUNG MISSLES to THE CITIES IN ISRAEL most of the time and not again militarry targets , but again civilian and their homes

Any type of war or fighting is sad and innocent is the victims, but please this should not be a topic on this forum. I can see the thread going south of the border real fast and it's only going to infuriate people because of it very sensitive nature.

Please let’s just stick to arranger talk, music, mine is better than yours, even though you may hurt my arrangers feelings but it does not become personal.

Going to War over Religion is basically killing one another to see who's got the better imaginary friend.

Also, I think this topic should be moved to The Bar.

Correctamundo...religion & politics don't mix with music at all.

Actually Donny, my friend, sometimes music, politics and religion are inextricably mixed...consider hymns and protest songs, for example.

I just feel this topic should be discussed elsewhere...like in The Bar...it has nothing to do with arranger keyboards.

I respect all beliefs, but there's a place for it.
