The Treaty has a lot of philosophical affirmations. But what should people actually get up off their butts and do?
Here it is. One mission for Jews, and one mission for Gentiles.
The mission for Jews
Tell the Gentiles that you understand why they're angry.
But there's a prerequisite: in order to tell them you understand, you have to understand. Which means you have to learn about the dark side of Jewish history.
The light side of Jewish history is the part we all got taught – all the great things we've done, all the wonderful inventions – and also how we were victims of other people. Because even being a victim still puts us in the right. So I include that in the light side too, because it still portrays Jews as the good guys.
The dark side of Jewish history is the part that shows us being the bad guys. Not just seen as the bad guys – actually being the bad guys, by doing bad guy things. Nations can do bad things to other nations. That is a thing. And the Jewish nation is no exception.
So read about it. The Dark History section is a course for exactly that. And once you've learned it, find a Gentile who is angry at Jews and tell them: "I read about it. I know about it. I learned about it." Acknowledge what's true, and acknowledge that they have reason to be angry about it.
This doesn't mean they haven't done bad things to us. They did. But this conflict will never be resolved if Jews are unwilling to admit to our part. Truth is the foundation of all resolution. You have to start with the truth. Always.
The mission for Gentiles
Establish communication with Jews.
I don't mean give them power. I don't mean give them money. I don't mean do anything to put yourselves at a disadvantage. I just mean talk to them. Just talk to them.
If they don't want to talk to you, there's nothing you can do about that. But you can still do your part by being willing. Whenever they're ready to talk, you should be ready to talk.
Whatever you believe about the collective, you still don't know where any individual Jew, or person of Jewish heritage, stands. Everyone has free will. You don't know what this particular person thinks until you get to know them – until you talk to them. So at least give them a chance.
And if they say something terrible, and you point out how terrible it is, and they run away and block you and never talk to you again – well, that's their failure. Let them fail at the conflict resolution. But don't you fail.
You don't heal the shadow divide by destroying your shadow. The shadow has to be integrated.
And if you’re afraid that merely talking will infect you with something, keep in mind that the true mind can weather all the lies and illusions without being lost.
