Within any large population, there are those who believe in trying to understand the nature of the problems they face and try to address them directly along with those who simple believe in making dichotomous noise: “Kill the bad guy,” “It’s all their fault,” “We’re great they suck.” National boundaries separate the former, but the latter have an open line of communication through hate filled rhetoric and actual violence. As a result, the noise makers on each side wind up helping each other shout down their problem solving counterparts. I believe understanding the battle between noise makers and problem solvers is our most fundamental problem. “Are you a noise maker or a problem solver?”
