I meant that tv news kept changing his name. Yes, Othniel is not such a great name. He's dead either way.
My tv's in the other room. I have to switch from cnn as they are doing an account of Uday and Qsay's demise. Of course, it will be sympathetic to the boys.
Councilman Davis has always been a very good friend to the Jewish community. He always conducted himself in a fair, and well balanced manner. He was a man of respect and integrity.
Councilman Davis was helpful in getting the Koppell Resolution passed, a resolution where the NY City Council urges Pres. Bush to declare the PLO a terrorist organization therefore allowing NYC to evict the PLO Mission. He also attended and spoke at many of the NYC demonstrations we held in support of the Koppell Resolution.
Councilman Davis also took a meaningful trip to Israel in the summer of 2002, when very few were going.
In many of my conversations with Councilman Davis, he always spoke so highly of the IDF and the Israeli people and respected their strength and courage...and realized there were many similarities between America's war on terrorism and Israel's war on terrorism.
