“I actually fought off tears more than once during the presentation and our
gathering after. I am determined to carry this message forward and will do my
best to give my heart to the spirit behind this effort.” -- Mark B. Wilson
“The longer I have reflected on your presentation, the more I am convinced that
it was the single most useful, concise, interesting and complete discussion of
the topic I have encountered in several years of paying close attention to
Palestine/Israel issues.”
-- Bruce Bowden
