Hows the girls there? j/k
Hmm...do you have soldiers outside every Jewish mosque/church [dont know how to spell synigog ]
soldiers outside schools for children?
I decided to make this to help clear some clouds of the conflict in the Middle East. I am Israeli, but I decided to stay in the middle of the conflict and simply help show people.
This thread is created as people ask me tons and tons of questions as I refuse to stoop down and use propaganda. People can ask freely (and be serious) of questions regarding the conflict.
I will only use facts and sense I live here and I can easily relate to both sides as I lost family members in the conflict as well as suffering from two wars.
Ask away!
My main question,
is how do Christians and Jews react with each other?
I have always wanted to go to the homeland,
to visit the places where so many ancient and great feet have traversed.
I want to go there badly Mouzie,
and I am not afraid of the conflict,or violence.
I was just wondering how Christians are looked upon there.
Yes and no, it depending on the areas in which you speak of. Do you mean near the Gaza Strip? Fucking yes, you'll be surprise to see soldiers guarding schools and hospitals. In other areas, no, reason why.. because most Israeli soldiers is still in high school, so they often are allow to carry firearms into classroom.. yes you'll see students with an Uzi or a pistol on their body. The weapons are loaded, but the Uzi have a special grip on them so they are only fired if you squeeze the handle and pull the trigger to shoot which is only given to students.
Everyone is treated with respect, Christians are welcomed there, but don't expect warm open arms like they do with the Jews. If you're from America, you'll be treated like a citizen of the state as America and Israel are very close. Will you get hurt, chances are.. no. Israel accept ALL religions, there is no blockage or anything. The only places you'll have problem is East Jerusalem as a lot of religion groups are banned from going there. It is a long story, but none the less Christians are treated like a fellow Israeli. HOWEVER, if you're black, the chances are that the Israelis will distrust you, as Ethiopian Jews are mostly look down, sadly.

How was highschool? Did you enjoy it?
What is your personal opinion about the conflict on both sides?
Do you know the reason why it's so hard for peace to exist? Why are both sides fighting instead of neglecting war and try to live in harmony?
( I know it's kind of a fairy tale question )
:/ it has to do with end-game. One side always wants more than the other will give, and one side always thinks negotiation is long past.
