Worth reading in full on the 'asymmetry of the sensational' from Rabbi Michael Cohen:

"The International Fund for Ireland spent $40 per person in Northern Ireland on #MEPPA-type projects. This relatively large expenditure was critical in paving the way for the Good Friday Agreement, which ended three decades of violence between Protestants and Catholics. At present, only $2 per person is spent on #Palestinian - #Israeli enterprises."
