... j'essaie, à travers ce choix d'excellentes photos d'agences de presse disponibles sur yahoo news Usa, de montrer, sans en rajouter, toute la complexité de la<br />
situation en Terre Sainte, c'est à dire en Israël-Palestine, où vivent des populations différentes toutes aussi attachantes les unes que les autres, avec leurs coutumes et leurs traditions ancrées<br />
dans leur foi et leur religion, malheureusement on peut constater une radicalisation de tous les côtés, et qui ne fait que s'accentuer hélas...<br />

plus d'influence en ce moment... et c'est un euphémisme !<br />
