The Israel/Palestine conflict and its ancillary conflicts like Israel/Hezbollah are not about religion. They are about the explusion of indigenous peoples from Palestine who have now lived as refugees in occupied territories or camps in bordering countries for four generations.
The idea that this is some age-old religious conflict is not historically accurate. These conflicts all trace back to the colonization of Palestine and the expulsion of half its population in the mid-20th century.
I predict this one will destroy all the holy sites.
I wonder if that would solve the whole fucking problem or if they’d all just find different stupid shit to kill each other over.
A Star Trek episode with Frank Gorshin comes to mind.

Optimistic! A rare treat.
