There are Two Sides to Every Story a Myth
Many of us like to think we are broadminded able to put
ourselves in another man’s shoes.
Journalists like to present both sides of the dispute equal
time to both parties.
This is not always possible. Once, you could debate the US presence in Iraq, global warming or universal
health insurance. These issues have gone from left wing diatribes to mainstream
axioms.
Let me settle the Israel/Palestine debate with one story.
Imagine one morning all the Jews wake up crowded into Palestine. They are poor,
inadequately housed with little to eat.
The Palestinians awaken in a Land of Milk
and Honey. They are armed to the teeth with every modern weapon.
How much time will pass before every Israeli is dead?
