Dear friends,
It has been brought to my attention that the Atlanta Journal-Constitution and John Dugard are both under attack. John Dugard for his opinion and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for publishing it.
For all those that have asked how they can support the Palestinians, well, here is one way. Within the next 4 hours take a minute to write a letter to the editor thanking the Atlanta Journal-Constitution for running this honest piece. I make a special appeal to all my Israeli and Jewish subscribers and friends to use this opportunity to speak out.
Write to letters@ajc.com. Letters should be 200 words or less and include your name, address and telephone (for identification purposes only). If you can, CC me at sbahour@palnet.com.
Also, if you want to hear Jimmy Carter speak about his book directly, here are two sources:
ABC News

Former President Jimmy Carter urges Israel to re-open peace talks. (VIDEO)
NPR

Lastly, for those of you who are asking, Laila El-Haddad has failed to enter Gaza yet again…the crossing was closed by the Israelis yet again.
Action please,
Sam
