It's not a religious conflict. It's an imperialistic conflict.
It's both. Religion is a cancer.
I generally agree. It's often used as yet another form of oppression.
But right now, capitalism and its byproducts of colonialism and imperialism are a bigger problem for a bigger number of people than religion.
The root for Palestine Israel conflict isn't religious. Religions have cohabitatedthe region for centuries in relative peace.
