My dear Santunu, Thanks for your response to my article. I must confess that I don't have the experience of living in Israel like you have but in writing this piece I have interacted with at least a hundred jews and more than 250 Lebanese residents. The article is not supposed to a doctoral thesis but is aime to be what the title suggest it is - It is a layman's guide to the conflicts. I wanted to draw the layman's attention to the fact that Middle East conflicts have many hues and its not about Israel VS the rest of Middle East only.
I would like to thank you for your frank view and acerbic comments which I accept in all humility, as the readers' right to criticize is as acceptable to me as is my own desire for the bouquets!
