She said she sympathises with the Israelies, but will she be visiting any Palestinians while she is there? It’s always good to expose one’s self to more than one side of a story.
After reading about Orprah’s plans to got to Israel, I sent her an email asking her to also visit the West Bank, and maybe Gaza. I haven’t had a response, but if she receives enough such requests, maybe she’ll do it.
It’s worth a try.
