Thank you to @PeterBeinart for this in-depth, frank conversation, spanning my family's journey, some history of the PLO, the Oslo Accords, the current situation, and the Palestinian trials and tribulations in Israel and under occupation. https://t.co/1Emy1IGaJw

Palestinian activist, @Issaamro, tells me how he was assulted by an Israeli soldier when he was showing @lawrence_wright around the occupied West Bank.

Dear friends, for a little taste of "Stranger in My Own Land" here is a short reading, from the @PalMuseumUS event on Jan 29. With my thanks to the museum and to Faisal Saleh! https://t.co/3M3p4Cda9b

[Fida Jiryis @FJiryis]

A friend remarked that each Palestinian is traumatized in some way. No wonder, for what we deal with defies explanation. Then, along comes Dr. Hatim Kanaaneh to give it a clinical context: PTSD, for that is what living in this reality does. https://t.co/jUNw3I7dl3

When one tells the story in a page, it's intense. A condensed, breathtaking synopsis by @johnpaulomallez in the @irishexaminer.
