Peres has spent the past few decades trying to make peace where none can be made (at least for now). He continues shaking the hands and talking to and about people who have lied and decieved him again and again and again. This "poem" is yet more evidence of a man that seems a tad out of touch with reality. Of all events, the Olympics is ANYTHING BUT a Ray of Hope! After the Munich massacre the Olympics committee barely made a token speech. They brought down flags to half mast but when 10 Arab nations protested lowering their flags as a sign of respect to the murdered innocents, they allowed those flags to be raised! (so much for standing for peace & cooperation; by raising those flags they signaled that appeasement of evil is THE OLYMPIC WAY!.. That and having the Olympics in China this year shows not much has changed!). Till this day no monument stands for the murdered athletes, even though the families have pleaded with the IOC, the IOC has commented that commemorating their deaths could offend some nations (again, the "spirit of Appeasement" is the Olympic way)... Peres is an idealist in an in-ideal world. It's high time the old man grew up! I admire Peres’ unbreaking optimism and hope but it is rather perplexing.
