What is it the world wants the Palestinian people to do?
We talk a lot about what other countries in the Mid-East should do, should not do.
We need more dialogue about what we expect from Palestinian citizens.
Today it was reported that Palestine's only power plant has been so short of fuel, the country
experienced extensive blackouts. When will more fuel become available?
Put another way, is there any refrigeration in Palestine? Are all babies necessarily breast-fed?
How much food will be thrown away if there is not enough heat to cook it? Are there candles
enough for all?
How many days of school will be missed?
Will anything at all be different in twenty years for babies born in the dark today?
Is there some set of things we can encourage Palestinians to do? Let's hope so. Otherwise, don't
some regimes always use them as an excuse for new and more insane terrors, and don't we in the world oversee another generation of myopic deprived.
