Yes, I know exactly what you're talking about, been through similar situations myself. Such a shame that we're living such a time of contradition where principals are nothing but a show off! Qwaider, couldn't agree more, you're absolutely right. It's sad but true! Janissary, always great to hear from you. I was so touched that you might be considering a donation. The thought alone means a lot to me... for someone being so far in distance yet so close in emotion and wanting to help fellow human beings is really a wonderful thing and I really appreciate the fact that you, with your busy life and the many things you have to keep under control and all the good deeds you're already doing, are willing to give yet more! Thanks. Just posted "donate for Gaza" with 2 of the reliable aid organizations I personally know. Hope I helped reply to your question. You owe me nothing my friend, as long as you're keeping in touch and as long as we know you're fine, that's all what matters. Good luck saving lives, you have no idea how much I admire what you're doing, you're such a good person and you deserve the very best. Oh, and thanks for the late alarm! lol!

Got a mailing address for a Palestinian aid organization you favor? I owe you an email. Apologies--tying to keep the tall blond boy alive. Yeah, things are going better for now. Unfortunately, can't tie our wrists together during the day. (Don't ever have male children, Eman. Ooops! Too late a warning! :) ) Loved your rocks, by the way. :) One can at least assuage one’s conscience with a check. Got a mailing address for a Palestinian aid organization you favor?

Actually, Amoeba can get you sick, and what we do is make the whole world sick of us! لقد أسمعت لو ناديت حياً.. ولكن لا حياة لمن تنادي

Last week I was invited for a pro-Gaza vigil by Arab students, and I happily joined. Now I am invited by the same people for a big party tomorrow. No one seemed to question whether this was a sensible thing to do, so I didn’t even bother to comment on the invitation. Things like that remind me how the region is sinking when everyone else is developing. Well Arabs have always behaved like that and hypocrisy towards the Palestinians is part of the whole culture.
