to the middle east?

It is my understanding that two religions in that area have been fighting each other for centuries.

Religions are not going away, so wars will not disappear either.

And it is my observation that religious issues and religious differences can stimulate just as much, if not more, pure raw brutality as any other cause, like greed, for example.

It is all very sad, but it is what it is.
