be filtered through what they've already been force-fed, even by osmosis, all of those years prior to age nineteen or twenty. That's a major labyrinth right there. We Westerners can stare hard at the English paragraphs in their Koran, trying to Understand those consecutive words....but the very words, having been translated from the original Arabic, are doomed from the start to impart different meanings. This is an innate "culture clash". There's no solution, we have to cope with this blockage on a situation-to-situation basis. Hence, there's no end to this murderous friction until one of the sides is completely cowed or obliterated. We Westerners must make certain that that isn't us. Yes sir! Armies are formed and maintained for the purpose of 'defeating' ones enemies or an allies enemies presenting an "imminent threat." All this economic and military driven nation building theory is a horrible waste of treasure and blood around the world. Have an enemy posing an imminent threat to ours or an allies sovereignty do what is necessary to dispose of them! PERIOD! In my opinion, this latest dust up is being brokered by Egyptian intelligence in partnership with Hamas. Egypt is determined to create an incident at the border that will allow them to throw off particulars of the peace treaty and exert full control of the Sinai. The status quo right now is a source of great shame in Egypt among the higher ups. Of course Egypt must make it look like their gov't has nothing
