Loewenstein has turned to fictional writing! Nakba (transl: disaster) is an interpretation of losing a war, by the aggressors, who nearly won.
This is quite different from genocide.
The radical elements on both sides can be better silenced by constantly, diligently, relentlessly talking about the BENEFITS of peace. Discussing those benefits in our newspapers, news programs, TV and schools.
And, stop trying to blame Israeli settlements and Palestinian poverty for a century of war - because both are a RESULT - not the cause.
A couple years of talking about the benefits and, I believe, both sides will be inspired enough to discuss the details. |
