I pray this is a new step towards peace and freedom for the Palestinian people. The last time I visited my friends there, I was shocked to see towns surrounded by walls. It broke my heart when a pregnate woman was not allowed to go to the hospital because it was not the 45 minutes a day that people could leave her town. I know that many people, both Palestinian and Isreali, have been killed. I'd prefer to see this resolved with no interfierence from the west (as we really haven't helped a whole lot in the past). If they can come to an understanding that is mutually benificial and acceptable, there can be a real chance for not only peace, but cooperation and integration. I'd be relieved and overjoyed to see Palestinians and Isrealis working together.
