Thanks for restating this clearly

There are many aspects in the seemingly endless Israeli-Palestinian situation that need to be explained over and over again - just for the record probably, because thinking realistically . . or even just thinking . . does not appear to be prevalent at this stage of history. Pointing out the obvious facts of existence in the Middle East again and again to people habitually chained to PR slogans and media images is a fatiguing endeavor, and many of us are guilty of feeling that the effort is useless.

So, thanks to you, Daniel Pipes, for taking time to once again set the facts in order.

The important work you and your staff are doing these past years reminds me of the saying "the right man in the right place at the right time."
