Well, peace in the Middle East is  long way off. That is for sure and this is something we agree on. But here in the U.S.A.,  there seems to be efforts underway to forge a peace among faiths. Read this article about how the Jewish Council for Public Affairs is more keen on improving relations with American Muslims than with American Catholics. I think this goes to show the urgency of the need for dialogue and peace. Whether this will translate into anything abroad or anything political is highly unlikely. However, the two communities have perhaps become so distance due to the political situation in Israel-Palestine that they see a need to reconnect here before all is lost. This is forward thinking on the part of JCPA.
