the “holy land”was promised to the children of abraham. just which of those children would have it (and how much of it, and which parts of it) has been a matter of dispute almost constantly since old abe kicked the bucket.
i think it is unrealistic to expect resolution of this question any time soon. (or ever, for that matter.)
i live thousands of miles from the disputed real estate – it is none of my concern. i wish our nation’s leaders could adopt this attitude. we do not have a dog in that fight, there is nothing for us to win.
