So far, we've published four issues of The Olive Branch Teacher's Guides. Please take a look. Please use these resources and send them to friends and colleagues who might also find them useful (we have hard copies,… Continue

Obama: Community Organizer and Chief (recommendations for making peace)

http://www.alarabiya.net/views/2009/10/20/88703.html

Here's an article I wrote late in 2009. As I read the latest news about Jerusalem, the stalled peace process, and the fall-out surrounding Biden's recent visit, I think of what I wrote here. I think it is relevant, still. . . . .
