Peace and Sharm-al-Sheikh


The town of Sharm-al-Sheikh sits at a magnificent crossroads.  It is rich, luxuriant and beautiful.  Sharm-al-Sheikh was relinquished to Egypt as a part of peace agreement.  That is why Moshe Dayan once said, “If I had to choose between peace without Sharm-al-Sheikh and Sharm-al-Sheikh without peace, I would certainly take Sharm-al-Sheikh.”
And yet when it came time to consider giving up the land there was little dissention for the sake of peace.  See how shalom can change the most hardened soul?

Of course, now in the 21 st century we must ask: are we better or worse for it?
