If even a fraction of what has been revealed in this book is true, then it is time for us to take an interest in Arab-Israeli affairs, however reluctantly.
Ron David explains it all with admirable clarity.
Why must we learn about the Middle East? Because for evil to prosper all that is required is for good men to do nothing. Not only have most of us not done anything, we have not even bothered to find out what it is all about.
The apathy is of such stupendous proportions that bin Laden felt he had to bomb the Twin Towers to get our attention. Even after that, we are still not being told the whole story or even bothering to find it out for ourselves. Our capacity for moral apathy, when it does not appear to affect ourselves, appears to be infinite.
Perhaps that was why God created terrorists.
The Middle East will be the cause of the next world war, because Israel was created through an act of injustice, of robbing Peter to pay Paul.
If it comes to that in our lifetimes, some of us should at least have taken the trouble to know how and why.

THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
