Fair enough, I think it a good idea to learn the lessons from history however far back it is applicable. Britian would not be a good friend going back since 1775, I think you would agree Pvt. JarheadIf one wants to take applicable history in terms of the middle east, I think since WWI would be fair. Considering that was when a large empire was divided into often times arbitrary lines without considering conditions on the ground. This has been compounded through the creation of Israel. I am not saying these things are right or wrong. Simply that they happened.There certainly has been bad deeds by both sides. A difference I notice, is that one is often done peacefully in the courtrooms or the floors of congress.The reaction to these decisions on those who it effects is to take to the streets under arms.I think there is a certain amount of hopelessness among large parts of that population. This poverty and no end in sight to that poverty is what breeds radicalism. This allowed the rise of the facists and communists in the countries where it took hold. Peace can usually come only with prosperity. Unfortunately, prosperity often times requires war.
