No, no, no.

There should be just good and evil.

And we cannot recognize any kind of justice or any kind of pain on two sides that the Israelis suffer and also the Palestinians suffer.

I mean, I think that in those cases, you would be able to confront the consequences of what you do.

And if you're not able to confront the consequences of what you do, then probably it's not right.

Yeah.

That's a very good question.

I'm not sure what... I mean, you know, the First World War did not make Europeans tire of war.

They had another one.

But then afterwards, they did seem to tire of war.

And what made the difference?

I'm not sure.

But in a way...

the mind always holds more than one story.

Even if we tell ourselves that this is the only one, the mind is such a complicated place with layers upon layers and subconscious and sub-subconscious levels.

And you usually hold several stories at the same time, even if you acknowledge only one.

And you can shift remarkably quickly between them.

You know, again, you look at Germany after 1945.

And lots of people who were kind of diehard Nazis.

Most Nazis did not commit suicide in 1945.
