On the new "miracle space engine"

Late last week broke news that somebody had discovered and tested a space engine that generated thrust without requiring fuel. As this site points out, don't get too excited. The thrust is within the margin of error of the measuring system.

On the Israeli / Palestinian War

Three thoughts:
1) As Jim Wright says, if you insist on an eye for an eye, eventually everybody's blind.
2) Also from the above link, neither side wants peace. They want the other side to just go away, which isn't quite the same.
3) If your neighbor commits a crime, and the police response involves blowing up your house, no matter how heinous your neighbor's crime was, you are not going to be happy with the police.
