Beyond Fear and Anger
“U.S. and the Muslim World” By Nidal Sakr*
Years before Oslo and Madrid, as president of Muslim Student Association in some US university, I took part in a three-way meeting with a Quaker minister and a Jewish Rabbi. The meeting agenda was to discuss prospects for a two-state solution in Palestine. The moderator minister talked for about 30 minutes, then the Rabbi followed suit, each talking from his own ”religious” perspective. Before I had the chance to talk, the moderator announced “we all seem to agree, so let’s move on to solution.”
