And if they can do it, everyone else can’t… Why, exactly?

From Popbitch, the UK celebrity gossip newsletter that comes out every Thursday (and for some reason, didn’t come out until Friday this week)

p>Israeli Jewish, Israeli Arab and Palestinian teens are competing on a joint team at this weekend’s World Shotokan Karate championships in Tokyo.

Why exactly can CHILDREN see past nationality or color or language or petty battles, yet adults can’t? It’s always been that way, right?

Yes it’s always been that way…

I figure it’s because children til a certain age are not watching the news. They are out and about playing sports, interacting with others.
Rather than sitting in front of the TV being told what to believe by the news, or the beliefs of that particular station.

What happen to just relaying the news?
And keeping your opinion of what YOU(news stations) think the mass population SHOULD think/believe about whatever topic is at hand.

Those are just my two bits.

I find myself yelling at the TV alot when I watch the news.

Because the youth look at each other individually and who they are, and not apply labels (by skin color, politics, religion, etc.).

Adults just think way too much.
