Quoting Maimonides, a medieval Jewish sage who was born in Spain, King Felipe said that "all great evils which men cause each other originate in ignorance."

He was brilliant in some respects but is so wrong here.

The issue is not an intellectual failing, but a moral one.

Man's moral character is not built on his knowledge base.

A knowledgeable man can be deliberately immoral. But an ignorant man doesn’t know that he’s supposed to be moral, or how to go about it. His emotions are crude and elemental, and his temper mercurial.

Looking at it from another angle.....laying the ground work for the Peace Agreement to one day come.... Jarrad has been quite busy with the Sauds and Israel on this....I've been keeping my eyes peeled on these events between the Sauds and Israel...and Putins visits with Be Be.

Interesting developments under Trump and this administration.
