The same hate?
Yes, this is another thread on the Israel-Arab conflict!
I want to talk about the hate that lies within Arabs against Jews, and vice versa.
I feel that there is a huge difference between what is happening with Israelis and the Arab Palestinians. The hatred and violence of the Arab Palestinians against the Israelis is sanctioned by their rulers, by their educational system, by their religious system and their media. This is NOT true of Israel.
Israel doesn't teach kids in school to hate. We don’t have commercials that portray Arabs as a "lesser" people; too bad I can't say the same for the Arabs.
None of this assumes that Jews never hate or never get violent. In every nation there are fanatics. In every nation there are mentally unstable individuals. Fanaticism, hatred, and violence are not officially sanctioned, however, by Israel's institutions. Israel and Judaism promote ways of peace.
It must also be stressed that there is a huge difference between reacting in self defence and between trying to exterminate a nation.
It is the responsibility of the Arab Palestinian institutions to teach tolerance, not hate so those young minds are not poisoned with such vicious violence. When this essential step is made, than our children will be sure to grow up and live in peace with their neighbours.
That’s my take on this matter.
Anyone care to voice their opinion, this is after all a place where opinions flow freely; unlike those places ruled by regimes like Iraq or the Palestinian Authority!
