Thank you so very much for your thoughts on the situation in Palestine and Israel. I am not an academic or someone with any voice or experience to speak out to a wide audience, but it has been so good to hear all the threads brought together, so articulately. We are pounded with news from every side and I sit here screaming at the screen/radio, "what about this" or "don't forget that", and weep for the lack of vision amongst those who do have power to change things. I try to pray constantly, and share with those around me, but you have provided some hope that the voice of truth will be heard. God Bless you.

Thank you so much for the appreciative comments. I just hope it helps bring some clarity among all that screaming and pain. God keep you.
