For Reza, are you really surprised that some issues are more fashionable than others? Stop whining and start organizing. As for Israel-Palestine, the reason we should care is that our tax dollars are paying for Israeli settlements and colonization and slow ethnic cleasing of Palestinians to the tune of $3 billion per annum. ITS THE OCCUPATION, STUPID! Seems you are more interested in flaming people than actually discussing how to make peace. Demonizing Hamas is easy, getting all the parties to talk to each other instead of shooting at each other is a little harder, but where there's a will, there's a way... which is why Carter has moved into the breach and is doing the real heavy lifting for peace.
