Of course there are still some people who live in physical as well as mental ghettoes, and there is still separation based on religious grounds, and I've no doubt that there is still some violence, but for nearly ten years there's been no killings, unlike the hundreds who died in the thirty years before the Good Friday Peace Agreement was signed.
