| The Talmud and the Qur`an both tell us that to kill one person is to destroy all humanity and to save one life is to save all humanity. For the first time in 4 years, a terrible attack has been carried out in Jerusalem. It comes AFTER attacks in Gaza that have left dozens of men, women and children dead. A radical Palestinian has carried out a terrible attack on a Jewish rabbinical madrassa associated with the settler movement. A radical Israeli, Rabbi Dov Lior has issued a fatwa giving his blessing to IDF shellings of Palestinian civilian groups. Cain once more desires the death of his brother Abel but this time we cannot tell who is Cain and who is Abel. Or rather, there is no Abel, no innocent brother. There are two Cains who will stop at nothing to kill each other and in the process commit collective suicide. |
