their is all this tension and tragedy happening in this world the only question remains, who benefits when the world suffers?


In china there is acid that falls from the sky, In the Middle East So many children die,

In the United States we think we are better and we can't say why?


I was taught at a young age the golden rule, treat everyone the way you want to be treated. yet,

Somewhere down the line I abandoned that.


I say, somewhere but I know when it happened.


literally the first day of high school.

I went to a school that was a pretty high majority white


a school that was also pretty openly racist to those not white. as such


I wanted to fit in.


I want to make the world a better place. less conflict,


we should learn to love the differences of one another


I want to help Israel and Palestine


understand they have equal claim and cause to the same land.


both have equal claim to the capital city of Jerusalem. Both have religious significance to the land.


I feel it would be helpful to consider the fact that both religions consider this area holy and they both have the same God, maybe this is no coincidence.

perhaps there was some divine plan.

that maybe their God wanted them not to fight an endless war, but to understand their differences and then they might notice they have more in common then they realize.



that is my thought at least. it seems they both have an equal claim to such a land as such I think the country should have one name Banī Isrāʾīl


Respecting both the Muslim and Jewish peoples,

the Arabic name but the message the is relevant to both religions the Children of Isreal, the Children of Judea of God
