religion was there to help humanity become better humans not go to war with each other and its unfortunate it has turned that way. If Palestinians and Israelies could learn to accept each other regardless of their faith, but look at what the have common, they would live a better life.
Matisyahu: do you want Israeli settlements to stop? I understand that the West left the Middle East high and dry after WWII.. carved up land without any right to do so. I don't dispute the need for Israelis to have a place free from persecution. But will you now support a peace and allow Palestinians a land on which to live? Recognize that they can be as important to your economy as Israel can be for them? In a world where nothing is fair, can you see to it that you, at least, can stand up here?
1967 border . back to that and disarm Hamas . Problem is are both willing to sacrifice ? There will be a time when both sides of the youth are so pissed that they will revolts against their elders
The problem are not the jews or the muslims...the problem are the goverments. There's is a war in Libya, where are killing innocents and people are pretending to care about them but they ignore Palestina...
@s0me0ne173 Go through some history and reason that statement of yours out please. Violent conflicts give birth to new violent conflicts, no matter who wins, the suppressed burst out again with more pressure, and many innocent victims grow up to avenge the things they witnessed.
I'd rather say it's very easy to say something like what you said, when you're in the middle of a conflict.
@FreedomFighter1948 the only difference is that the jews were killed systematically, men, women, children, babies, for no reason other than their religion. i am also opposed to the war in gaza, but we need to understand the roots of the problem, on of which happens to be gazan militantz shooting rockets at innocent israelis.
@MrShmuly Actually Israel has been killing Gazans long before Hamas was around. Sharon killed hundreds of unarmed civilians in 1973 there. The problem is twofold: Career military politicians in the Israeli government who profit from a state of war--keeping Jews in fear and Arabs down; and the corrupt Palestinian leadership in the West Bank that collaborates in the occupation but pretends it is for Palestinian freedom.
@sdpikapp That's what the Nazi's said about the Jews. Don't be so fucking ignorant. I hate how Jews bitch about the Holocaust, while at the same time support the moderd day equivalent, what Israel is doing to the Palestine is similar to the Nazi execution of the Jews.

Well done. If Matisyahu refuses to address what Israel is doing in Palestine in his music, someone has to.

if it is someone interpreting matisyahu's strong belief in peace to apply to their own cause, is that a bad thing? i think not.
