You guys should read the works of Homer-Dixon. He argued that most conflicts in the world has to do with resources. Israel-palestine is about Land and Water. Gulf War was about Oil and land. The Rwandan genocide has to do with land. It's a shame that the media does not go deeper into conflict, instead going more for the quick news. Kinda like a cheap thrill.

One of my fave quote:
"If you only listen to the news, you don't know anything."
