White text on black background "If you want to understand how desperately Israelis and Palestinians need peace, consider what would become of them in a state of perpetual war. Against a vastly superior Israeli army, the Palestinians’ most powerful weapon would remain the death and suffering of their own people. Israel’s fate would be woeful, too, if it wants to be a flourishing, modern democracy. If Israel permanently relies on its army to subjugate the Palestinians, it would become an apartheid-enforcing pariah. Israelis carrying out daily acts of oppression punctuated by rounds of killing would themselves be corrupted. For two peoples locked in a violent embrace, peace is the only deliverance"

Is #peace possible between #Israel and #Palestine? A compelling article in @TheEconomist argues it's not only possible but imperative ad offers some practical steps to get there. Perhaps idealistic, not to say utopian but at least someone is thinking about it which gives me hope.
