A lesson for us all?

I came across this on Ynet. I think it has resonance for all who post here.
None of us needs change his or her view of Israel or the conflict, but as the rabbi says:

Within the Jewish community we are really all brothers and sisters, we have a shared history - much of which involves persecution, and, in many respects, we have a shared destiny.

Yet there is too much suspicion and enmity amongst us. In Israel, there is the massive and very disturbing religious and secular divide. Even within the United States there are many secular Jews who view religious Jews with grave suspicion and some Orthodox Jews see their counterparts in other sects of Judaism as, “Destroyers of our faith” and thus hold them in contempt.

Jacob and Esau did not share the same theology, ideology or any of the same values in life. In fact all indication shows that they were as far apart on these things as two people can possibly be. Despite this they managed to hug and kiss each other in the spirit of love and brotherhood. Clearly if Jacob and Esau can do it so can we. The real question is: Who has the humility, courage and strength of character to make the first move?
