Ideas about populations, jobs etc

I got the new issue of Foreign Affairs quarterly and in reading several articles so far it has brought questions to mind. 1. One things that Brezinki brought out was that Israel should go back to 1967 Borders. It must be remembered what Brought Israel to the position was the history of the world against the Jews. The Holacost is brought to mind as one of the key ingredients that helped build Israel and of course the constant wars by the Muslim nations for the destruction of Irael. Does the wars with Israel actually help the people in these countries. It apparently does not as look at Pakiststan, Afghanistan and the rest of the countries. In one of the articles in the magazine was the poor uneducated people in these countries. They have many children but no education for upgrading the population. These countries pour a lot of money in teaching of the Koran which does not seem to help the general population.
2. as an after thought just look at the grade schools in the US and see where the kids are going and it is definetly downward. Our grade school teachers are trained in Psycology and Sociallogy instead of History, Geography, Penmanshiip and of course Math. They keep coming up with the idea of letting the kids go where they go instead of leading the students into higher level. It always reminds me of a situation with my daughter. She said Daddy would you please help me with an Algebra problems. So I showed her step by step how to get the Answer. Of course I did not know what was wrong until she came home and told me that her Daddy was dumb. So then I discovered that in few pages there was the approach that I had done. What made it difficult for the Student to learn was the steps are so small, it does not make sense.
3. The writers keep hollering about not enough working workers to support the people on Social Security yet what is the Industry doing but laying off everyone that is 50 or older as the cost of Medical care goes up. But think the the skill and education of these people are lost to the industry and there is not any replacement. These companies ship the jobs overseas to lower class workers. Just think that if our schools were upgraded by a simple expression of ( YOU WILL DO IT INSTEAD OF POOR BABY ). Grade school teachers says they are baby sitters but who fault is it.
4. As an after thought if the Churches got out of education and just stuck to Morality of their people, I wonder if this country and Rest of the world would be better off. Religion is needed byt not in the way it is used such as the Muslim and Orthdoxy of any religion. I guess I have rambled enough as the ideas come out of my head but what do they mean or are they useful. Don
