The Jew from Kuwait

Every once in a while there is a glimmer of hope that somehow there can possibly be peace in the Middle East. One of those came when I read the story of The Jew from Kuwait, the story of a modern secular Muslim who discovered his long-hidden Jewish roots. It's about time that the children of Abraham really examined their shared obligation to peace and stop demonizing one another.

Isn't it possible that both sides have been failing to see the true nature of the conflict? There are young, Arab Jews who have a very different perspective on exactly what it means to be a Zionist and, just maybe, if they can make their voices heard by enough people, things can turn around.
Let's hope so.
