I wonder how long this will stay on the AAI homepage? After Rachel Corrie "committed sucicide" while trying to defend a terrorist, they kept her article for a few months making her into a martyr.

During the course of his life, Professor Said articulated a vision of Palestine and the Arab world that not only recalled the significant contributions of the region’s people but also offered hope for the future.

You mean he wrote glowingly about the people in the region credited with the greatest accomplishments and most significant contributions to world civilization - the Jews?
Show me.

Hmmmmm. How have Noam Chomsky, Norman Mailer, Gore Vidal, Edward Asner, Ramsey Clark and Robert Altman been feeling lately?

So many spittle soaked, jackboot licking, freedom hating, bitter old men; so few streptococcus pneumoniae.
