I appreciate the nuanced analysis of Israel – Gaza offered by Darryl Cooper on Breaking Points.. He offers, “This is a political conflict over disputed territory. That’s it. We can bring all the religious considerations into that, and maybe that intensifies the complexity of the emotions relative to other disputes. But at the end of the day, it’s a dispute between two groups of people laying claim to the same piece of land. That’s it. . . . . 99% of the people on both sides are just regular people.”
