Root causes for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

by Thomas Sowell  (May 6 ) http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/sowell.html

Those who look for "root causes" might consider this: Several years before there was a state of Israel, Winston Churchill said that the Jews in Palestine had "made the desert bloom." Had they not done so, there might be peace in the Middle East today. Nothing has promoted more fierce and lasting hatred than assaulting people's egos by blatantly outperforming them.

Most of the great mindless slaughters of the 20th century -- whether of the Armenians in the Ottoman Empire, the kulaks in the Soviet Union, the Jews in Germany, the Ibos in Nigeria or the Tamils in Sri Lanka -- have been slaughters of those who dramatically eclipsed the accomplishments of others.

Pat Buchanan's book, The Death of the West: How Dying Populations and
Immigration Invasions Imperil Our Country and Civilization (New York, NY:
Thomas Dunne books, St. Martin's Press, 2002).  Rev. Sirico calls attention
to the intellectual and political threat presented by Buchanan's picture of
utter hopelessness and despair.

Bad Business
The McCombs Business School at the University of Texas at Austin is ranked among the top-ten business-school programs in the United States.  So why is the administration trying to replace its acclaimed faculty of adjunct professors, who are also successful businessmen, with tenure-track academics?
