Attempting to understand the Arab-Israel conflicts and history has boggled my mind...even as I have tried to read, understand and keep up with all the recent history.
This book brought the conflicts down to people and families with openness and honesty. This resulted in wondering if peace can ever be restored; yet, could be if hate is not taught to every generation. Probably an impossibility. Hope seems to be in concessions and as the author stated (paraphrased) that neither side will get what they are entitled to.
