I actually interviewed him for Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox radio program that will air some time in the coming few days. Be on the lookout for it.
I felt the same way with Madeleine Albright; it only intensified with Condoleeza Rice and Susan Rice. As I said at a town hall meeting last night, that Rice plantation must have been one messed-up place! But certainly women must have the same pangs of conscience when we see women personalize policies that result in mass murder.
At any rate, in the flesh, Gilad is charming and thought-provoking. He said nothing that was offensive to me and nothing that I heard him say resembles what I read about him.
Finally, I know what it is like to be maligned. For serious values to be twisted and chewed and mangled into distortions beyond recognition. And although he would never admit it, I'm sure these attacks hurt him immensely. I wish there were something I could do about that, but we all are so hurt. Don't retreat.
Hold my hand and we will walk with Gilad through this difficult time for us all.
