Good for Zoubek but...

Him, Mia Hamm, and kids from the Middle East and Maine?! It’s as randomly thrown together as a Family Guy joke.

sowing the seeds of peace

We should all take note and settle our differences on the playing field and not the battlefield.

I believe that there can be peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians. The western media only tells one side of the story. The Arab media tells the other side of the story. The truth is somewhere in the middle. I am observant Jew and supporter of Israel. My 23 year old daughter spent the month of June living in the West Bank among the Palestinians, learning about them and interviewing them for her Master’s Thesis. The nearby Jewish settlers threw rocks and water at my daughter and her Palestinian hosts. AND yet, in a summer camp in Maine, there is hope. GO ZOUBEK! GO MIA HAMM!
