Harmony

"War is the only language Jews Understand"(page 133). In this region of the world, war is such a big part of people's past and even present. War to us is something that is happening so far away and almost seems unreal. However, Middle Easterns, especially people in Israel and Iran, war is a part of their world. There is a strong hatred between Israel and Iran. It reminds me of the rivialry between the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. Only the baseball teams fight with bats and balls. Red Sox fans and Yankees fans always bicker and when the teams come together, it is like a baseball war. Sometimes fights even break out in the stands or once in a while on the field. But yet, Sox and Yankees fans have to live in a some what harmony. Israel and Iran will always have that rivialry but hopefully one day citizens can live among one another peacefully and not bicker and fued. Hopefully there will not be wars between the two in the furture and the countries and their citizens can learn to live as peaceful neighbors. LB
