In the 1970s a song called The Israelites by Desmond Dekker and the Aces became a big hit. The singer from Jamaica came on the scene with a reggae sound. The sadness and disappointment many of us feel watching the horrendous images on TV prompted me to see what the song The Israelites was about.
It turns out that Rastafarians consider themselves one of the lost tribes of Israel.
In the midst of all the horror some good news.
If only they were the intermediaries to find a middle ground where Palestinians and Israelis could reach a long lasting peace. If only they could all get together. If only they could open their hearts and their ears and let the words of Bob Marley and the Wailers sink in.
