Talking About Peace is Good Enough...Right?

Seper
For years conflict has existed between Palestine and Israel. Extremist groups from both countries have attacked each other since Israel became a country after World War II. Within the past ten years however, increasing pressure from other countries, including the United States, had led to peace talks among the nations. It seems that after every meeting these countries have with one other they are closer than ever to peace and proving to the world that they can live with each other.
But when? When will these two countries have a treaty amongst themselves that will the end the attacks against each other. The European Union, United States, Russia, the United Nations, and the rest of the world are begging for peace. What is it about pride that leads one country to try and destroy another country for more than half a century? Both the Israeli and Palestinian representatives say that perhaps in the spring, they will be closer to reaching a first draft of documents ending the conflict amongst them.
