Gaza, a never end conflict.

Recently I read a new on guardian.co.uk about the conflict in Gaza between Israel and Palestine. This article was about a report that the UN made about war crimes in the last conflict between Hammas and Israel in Gaza on January. This report accused both sides of war crimes. Obviously Israel rejected this report and said that this statement don-t contribute for peace. What can I said as an Anthropology student, well firs off all we have to understand the beginning of this conflict and what involves.
We must see the big picture of this conflict to understand what it’s happening, we have to take on count the history of this to Nations, the politic, the power beyond both sides, and what they represented, but in fist term as an Student of anthropology we have to take care about the cultural component in this conflict, in how this two countries, sides, nations, peoples are seen between them. This is a very complex point of view, and difficult to aboard, especially from a western eye, because of the cultural difference.
Going back to the news, there are human rights involve in this conflict, there are civilians, people that just want to live, from both sides. Not recognize that both sides committed war crimes it-s also saying that you don-t recognize that people that want to lived, you don-t recognize the death of civilians.
