First a note of thank you to the many colleagues who made the speaking tour in Italy very productive (Roma, Bologna, Genova, Pistoia, Foligna, and Firenze).
The next message will comment on the beginning of reshaping of the Arab world that started from Tunisia (most mainstream media did a terrible job with the exception of outlets like Al-Jazeera). But in this short message I want to:
1) Invite you to come to Palestine this summer beginning July 8, 2011. We believe at least 1000 Europeans as well as many others will come to show solidarity and to say enough is enough. More details will be forthcoming at http://www.PalestineJN.org
2) Let you know of a rough outline of my upcoming speaking tour to London, Paris, and the U.S. In this tour I will be speaking mostly about my new book "Popular Resistance in Palestine: A History of Hope and Empowerment". In the book and in talks I explain why we are so optimistic about the furure in Palestine "the Holy Land". Email me if you are along the route and can help either with logistics and with arranging other talks or promoting the event. I look forward to seeing you.
