Solution to Israel-Palestine problem (for kids)

How can we dance during this Nakba (Catastrophe), this Holocaust? - What else can we do?

There can be only one final solution. - Oh, no, what is it? - We'll have a dance off...with bombs

a kids book about Israel & Palestine

Those thickheaded kids, why won't they understand? Here's a primer about the problem with a real solution EVERYONE will love (except those involved in the conflict).

Everyone's second favorite Christian scholar (if Bart Ehrman is Number 1) is a Harvard former Christian and current Muslim with a scholarly knowledge of Judaism and the major Abrahamic faiths (which are more numerous than the three we always hear about*) has just come out with A Kids Book About Israel & Palestine.

What do kids care? This "Arab" boy wants to die

on account of what Bibi is doing to Palestine.

Our men can't dance. Let's show them how!

Dr. Reza Aslan, Ph.D. (rezaaslan.com) is a professional scholar of religion. His new book (released March 19, 2024) has 4.2 out of 5 stars with 40 ratings. Did the kids judge it? Probably not, but it's a #1 Best Seller in Children's Middle Eastern History.

Kids, what is the Israeli-Palestinian "conflict"? (It's hard to find a fair word. It's not a war or conflict or anything with two groups on any kind of equal footing, so let's just call it a bloody mess as European invaders, following the history of the other great European nations that just go in and take someone's land and then hold up a Bible and say God is their real estate agent who gave it to them and somehow manage to say that with a straight face and get us all to argue about an "ancient" debate that has only been going on for 75 years).

What about a "two state solution," Dr. Aslan? Hell to the double no.

Was the God Jesus a Jew or a Christian?

Why is it happening? Is peace possible? When kids ask questions like these, are grownups prepared to answer?

This book was created to provide context for this conflict, open the door to conversation, and lay a path for understanding, peace, and compassion for our shared future. Core themes in this book:

Fortunately, American Christians are completely unbiased and looking for a fair solution for all.

• Acceptance,
• Courage,
• Empathy,
• History.
