I am not fully back but here is an interesting interview of James Carroll. I just watched his excellent brave documentary titled: 'Constantine's Sword: No War is Holy.
In it, he focuses on the hatred Christians have historically put upon the Jews. Additionally, he touches on Islam and what Christians (particularly the U.S military) are doing to proliferate the hatred.
I enjoyed the documentary. Here is a 20 minute interview some of you may enjoy.

El Fadl book review request-coming soon!
Dear readers...I have had a request to do an informal book review of The Great Theft by El Fadl. I will but this weekend. I have more time to do online stuff after work on the weekends. I have to catch up on an archaeology class on my days off in addition to being a lazy bum and sitting by my pool with a fun book. Gosh...I think I need to run to Borders and pick one up. Now, if I would just get my paycheck in the mail! I wish they did direct deposit. I digressed. Sorry. I will put up links to the El Fadl student support site when I wrte about the book.

Harvard? For me??
I spoke of this issue before but I will say it again....
I WANT TO GO TO HARVARD UNIVERSITY!! I REALLY do. They have a neat program called
Harvard Extension School. I am not sure of the objectives but I think it is to give anyone a chance at the prestigious school. I would go for the Masters program in Middle Eastern Studies.
Even before I get accepted I need to register for 3 classes (and take them of course!). I would have to move to Boston for a summer. I would need to find a way to pay for them at 1950.00 a class. wow. :-) What a steal. How do I do that? sigh. They do not have much financial aid for classes that are not taken in a degree program. I want this. Bad ass want this. :-) Here is the link for the program.
They have a whole 16 week class on jihad! :-) I am such a Middle Eastern Studies junkie.

Israel's Man of Conscience
http://www.thenation.com/doc/20090713/nawi
My name is Ezra Nawi. I am a Jewish citizen of Israel.
I will be sentenced on the first of July after being found guilty of assaulting two police officers in 2007 while struggling against the demolition of a Palestinian house in Um El Hir, located in the southern part of the West Bank.
Of course the policemen who accused me of assaulting them are lying. Indeed, lying has become common within the Israeli police force, military and among the Jewish settlers.
