So Here It Is

"The Israeli-built wall is "a sign of all that is wrong in the human heart", the Archbishop of Canterbury said today in Bethlehem.

Speaking to the town's civic representatives, Dr Williams said the wall symbolised "the terrible fear of the other, of the stranger, which keeps us all in one kind of prison or another", from which God 2,000 years ago came to release people."

Still a lot of work to do, folks.

Merry Christmas.

How many thousands of years has this been going on for? turn the whole middle east into a carpark.

Now that's an idea worthy of putting forward to the UN.
