I saw an enlightening documentary film last year on television in Canada (on The Passionate Eye) about two video-journalists, one an Israeli, the other a Palestinian. They knew one another and were on reasonably civil terms together covering the street fights and rock throwing. They both said there was an unofficial schedule -- they were to show up at a certain corner daily at 2 pm and the rock throwers would appear on schedule to "perform" for them. Both seemed perplexed and bothered by their roles in the routine. - ------------------------------------------------------ http://home.golden.net/~tekapo
