However that does not, in any way, force JakeS to repeatedly comment on a subject he feels is not important to him, so I don´t see the purpose. The comments reflect denial and rational escapism, from not wanting to deal with the human tragedies it entails, in Palestine, or elsewhere. That diminishes and distracts from the subject and discourages discussion. Our knowledge has surpassed our wisdom. -Charu Saxena.
The fact that Palestine diaries don't get enough attention is sad and I think it reflects our helplessness to make a difference.

I guess I read Jake a bit differently. I read his comments as an attempt to explain the lack of comments, despite the ongoing tragedies. A vote for PES is a vote for EPP! A vote for EPP is a vote for PES! Support the coalition, vote EPP-PES in 2009!
