I think it will come. My kids have been in integrated schools and neighborhoods all their lives and race is just a non-issue for them. How it will come, I don't know. I don't have anything else to say about Israel/Palestine though as I know it is a complex issue about which I know almost nothing. But I think that if a peace can be maintained long enough for the children to play outside -- and I realize thats a big if -- then maybe there is hope of a similar process there.
