Civilization vs. Barbarism?

<--Picture of Israeli children writing messages on bombs:


American and British media have devoted hours to wondering what would drive a seemingly normal young Muslim to destroy himself and others. No one has paused to ask what would cause a seemingly normal young Christian or Jew to strap himself into a warplane and drop bombs on a village, knowing full well his bombs will inevitably kill civilians. Because "our" way of killing is dressed up in smart uniforms and shiny weapons and cloaked in the language of grand causes, we place it on a different moral plane than "theirs."

Manichean language does the world no good. People must realize that Israel must also be held accountable if peace is to be attained.
