Avoiding civil war should be our number-one priority. Listening to our past would strengthen us as a society. The process would allow us to stand united in any situation, whether we decide that it requires generosity or assertiveness. Let us heed the Bible's warning
Numbers 25:7-13, Judges 20. Why aren't you paying attention?

Sad that the Bush Administration is negotiating with terrorists.

"
Ancient Jewish history is thus replete with fraternal conflicts, several far exceeding per-capita casualties of the American Civil War."
That may be, but I'd like to know which "fraternal conflicts" the author is considering. The US Civil War seems sui generis in many ways.
It is also interesting that in the US we are closer to civil war -- or widespread insurrection -- with this recent USSCT ruling then many realize. As Israel is made to go, could we not be made suffer to an even worse result?
The forced removal of Jews from anywhere is a sad watershed momemt for any nation that engages in it -- and if that nation is Israel itself, would not G-d, Himself, feel rebuked?
