and if you're an Hasidic Jew, then say something too...
because when I rode up to work today, the street was FLOODED with Hasidic Jews protesting the trampling of the *religious* jews by the Israeli army in Jerusalem....hmmm...sounds like the *religious* jews and the Palestinians have found a new common ground.
Globalization at its finest.

Nice piece. Very. It's funny; ironic. It’s all so weird. The Kaaba in Mecca, at the end of the Hajj (the pilgrimage), is the black rock structure that was supposedly (originally) put there by Abraham - Abraham the father of the Jews, the Christians and the Muslims. It’s hard to see how they/we could have screwed that up so completely. As Colm Toibin said about the Irish Troubles, ‘It’s not as if we’re really any different from one another; not in any way you can tell just by looking. You’d have to have worked very hard at it.’ (Messing things up.)
