Jenin refugee camp.

 According to the Israeli government, it was necessary to invade the Jenin refugee camp on Monday, in order to stop the possibility of terrorist attacks. This was the biggest intervention for over 20 years - into the West Bank. Many homes in the area have no water or electricity - in addition homes have been destroyed. Some 12 Palestinian people have died, but more are expected. There is little faith in the Palestinian Authority (PA) as many of the young think they have sold out. It's very difficult to see any rational solution to this ongoing problem. I volunteered for the 1967 Six Day War and went to the Erez Kibbutz on the Gaza Strip. Can anything solve this Gordian Knot, or will we be back here again in years to come?
