University Protests against the Israeli Incursion into Palestine

[Leonardo17]

   A 26 year old Psychology student who was a student in the University of Washington / Seattle has lost her life in the East-Bank.

   She was a perfectly secular young woman who had no tie to any type of extremism. Besides (if I am correct) half of the other protesters where Jews. There are many Jews who are actively protesting against Israeli expansion in the West Bank.
 
   Some people are actively working to make the whole story seem complicated. It really is not. Gaza (in theory) is what used to be Judea and the West-Bank is (in Theory) what used to be Samaria. But what about the 2000 year old culture of the Palestinians? What about their history / identity and right to autonomy?
 
    I recently saw the 2005 movie “Kingdom of Heaven” by Ridley Scott. I really like how at the end of the movie Ibelin of Balian struggles to save the people of Jerusalem from massacre and how Salahaddin admits that “Jerusalem does not mean anything but that it means everything”. The Epilogue is also very interesting. It says: “Nearly a thousand year later peace in the Kingdom of Heaven still remains elusive”.
 
   In more spiritual terms: I can guarantee you that there is no such “Kingdom of Heaven” in any part of this world (I think all atheists would agree on that).
 
   So the loss is very tragic. But I think that a rational response to this mass irrationality has already arrived. And I hope that the sacrifice of Aysenur Ezgi Eyri will not be in vain. Personally, I have had it with this nonsense.
