70 years since the creation of the state of Israel, and the relationship with our neighbors has gone from bad to worse. "And So?" was created to question our deep understanding and relationship with the Israeli-Arab conflict and to move emotions. The 2 babies are both similar with the only difference being what is on their heads, aka, their beliefs. Their big feet are to recall that they share the same ground, a land that is in reality, common to all. Their pouting is the result and source of their conflict, the lack of love and clairvoyance on both sides. Their back-to-back position is proof of today's sad reality. In this position, there appears no room for a better tomorrow. What I want to portray with "And So?" is the stupidity of this conflict. I cannot but help think that the fathers of these stubborn babies were living next to one another for centuries. Jews and Arabs have coexisted for hundreds of years peacefully and respectfully. I cannot help but think of when will we be able to elevate ourselves enough to realize that peace is the only possible outcome. There is NO other viable solution
