"To the impartial eye, the world not only seems an unlikely one-off phenomenon, but a constant strain on reason. If reason exists, that is, if a neutral reason exists. So speaks the voice from within. So speaks Joker's voice." - Jostein Gaarder
Just another try to better understand this world...

שלום Shalom
You left a thoughtful comment in my Live Journal blog a few weeks ago.
It is great to check out your journal and hear other, much-needed perspectives on the Danish cartoon insanity than those we see in the media.
The damage done by both the violence over the cartoons to the image of Islam and to the perception of Muslims by non-Muslims is immense. I lived in Jordan for a year where I worked as a teacher in a boys' school. I know how the media tailors our perceptions. Even so, there are lots of crazy things happening and it was important to me to hear your voice and that of those who join with you. Thank you for speaking up!
