Check out Omar's profile over at Norm Geras' place.
I'm proud to have shaken Omar and his brother Mohammed's hand (hugged them actually), and their faith in the future - tested as is it by the harsh reality of their present - inspires me every day.
I look forward to a sharing meal with all three brothers - Omar, Mohammed, and Ali - sometime soon.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
