In keeping with the spirit of nonviolence, sisterhood, and common courtesy, I'll let the "fruitcake" remark go unanswered. Anyway, as one who has participated in ILGO's attempts to march in the New York Saint Patrick's Day parades, I have been called a lot worse. But let me ask an important question: Does CarolC not understand that we are essentially on the same side? I truly believe that we both wish to see the Israelis evacuate the Arab territories they captured in 1967. I believe we both wish to see the establishment of an independent Palestinian Arab state. I believe we both wish to see this come about without further violence. And I believe we both wish to honor the bravery of Rachel Corrie, the young woman who lost her life because she chose to speak Truth to Power.

Has anyone noticed? Or are y'all just enjoying a good old-fashioned cat fight?
