The link directs to the most recent update of the death toll that has been plaguing hotly debated holy land in Israel. Between the Israelis and Palestinians who both claim the land to be rightfully theres, the suicide bombings, cruise missile strikes, and steamrolling of villages on the part of military tanks has become almost an expected daily headline. The hate and resentment between the two sides relates to the ignorance of the accused in the Matthew Sheppard case. Unable to cope with their prejudice against an idea that is different from their own, the killers brutally torture and murder their victim much in the same way the Israelis and Palestinians kill each other – without hesitation or remorse. The reason the two sides can’t cope with their religious differences is that they have both been raised in an environment taught to hate the enemy, in this case being the people of an opposite faith.
