Although the borders between the United States and Mexico and the demilitarized zone between (DMZ) North and South Korea get all the attention these days, the divide between the Israelis and the Palestinians is perhaps the most dangerously contentious in the world. After 70 years of conflict and separation, the Israelis and Palestinians will face-off in another deadly confrontation today. And that deadly confrontation will take place near the border. In fact, the clashes have already started. In anticipation of a replay of last week's March to Return protests, demonstrations, some say bloodbath, Israel conducted air strikes into Gaza to warn its prisoners to avoid further confrontations. But wait, I may be getting ahead of myself. You need the backstory.
