I read your comment about ADC before and I thought you were little hard on them.
However, I recently found out as I was participating in the protests against the Zionist
movie "Seige", that ADC had awarded Tony Shalhoub an award in its latest
convention. Tony Shalhoub is an actor in the movie who sold his soul for a handful of
dollars against his people, and who had given Hollywood the appearance of objectivity when
they placed this jerk in the movie.Then, I realized you were right.

Dear MER,
Thanks for the information regarding the apartheid mapping of Palestine. It's always
great to receive your messages because I know its one of the only sources of accurate
reporting on Palestine...
Sincerely, Catherine Cook

Edward Said Columbia University
================================= The tragedy of the Palestinian peple is something
that we understand abstractly, but I don't know if any of us can grasp the extent of their
defeat, suffering, and horrible prospects to its full. They were on the virge of victory
(with the Intifada), and were betrayed by their own local leadership, their political
infra structure completely lost, their land and life stolen.
To the extent that there is local Palestinian opposition, it is completly inable to act
under these conditions. Mainly, there is no channel whatsoever of alternative media (and
as important MER is, most Palestinians cannot read it). INternational, and Arab media is
completely prey to propaganda of the 'peae process'...

The Palestine Authority looks more and more like occupied Warsaw in theearly 1940's
before the Jews were transfered to concentration camps. The P.A. is the equivilant of the
Jewish "Kopos", who maintained order inside that Warsaw ghetto.

..your articles are generally well researched and excellent -- awelcome relief from
America's party-line and restrictive media...Keep the material rolling; it has been a good
balance of factsand reasonable presentation without beating the drum, blowingthe horn, and
blowing smoke. I look forward to the reports. good work!
Your prediction of Arafat's impending "Wooden Indian" appearance was too true
-- that's what he looked like when he sold out for the U.S. money to suppress his people.
Thank you for the information stream...

================================= I am a student who wants to move on to write about
events in themiddle east. I am NOT an exploitation writer like 99.9% of the trash out
there. I want to fight disinformation and it's important to me to have real facts. Thank
you for your site - I only hope I can somehowcontribute. One question and a comment:...
Comment: I suspected that Washington-Report [On Middle East Affairs] was bogus... -
they never criticize KSA [King of Saudi Arabia - ed.].
Good work and keep the faith - you aren't alone.

Israel was especially interesting...All the best to you & yours!

Re: Arab-American Organizations
Amen. Also, do not forget that many of them are senile which is a source of
embarrassment for many of the young and bright Arab-Americans... Wow. Thank you and Keep
on exposing this filth.

MER,
Keep up the good work. Objective and courageous journalism such as that demonstarted by
you is, unfortunately, rare and much needed. You will no doubt have strong opposition from
many groups, which further strengthens the evidence supporting your claims of conspiracy,
hypocricy and propoganda. Keep it up.
=================================
Subject: Your relentless effort is much appreciated.
Dir Sir, I have read the arrogant, intimidating, and oppresive letter signed by Fadi
Shaqa'a, which in my opinion is a clear manifestation of your credibility. People like
Shaqa'a seem to be misled to believe that all the world is a Middle East, where they can
forge facts and opress counter-opinions. I have been reading your newsletter for the past
year or so, and I would like to pin-down few facts: 1-Although your stories seem to be
provocative in most cases, it is highly credible, and truthful. Being a Mid-Eastern
myself, I witness the stories you talk about, and see how what you call "client
regimes" forge facts. 2- You need not worry about letters like Shaqa'a, or the acts
of Zoghby. Acts like these, coming from people who hardly have a reputation, only proves
how desperate such people are - they are getting exposed. I only hope you will always have
the courage and strength to keep up your vital and much appreciated work. Best regards,
A.H. Amman, Jordan

I still believe that MER is performing a most important task in attempting to inform
people--and especially residents of the United States, who often seem to have a rather
naive belief in the unalloyed goodness of their government's foreign policy (coupled with
an often equally simplistic belief in the unalloyed evil of that same government's
domestic programmes)--as to what is going on behind the scene in the Middle East.
M. Henri Day Oslo, Norway
=================================
MER,
YES!!! I'd love to help you!!! I want so much to help all thepeople in the middle east
who are getting screwed by all this corruption and disinformation.
I just want to say one last thing. I did not get into this because I fancied myself as
a freedom fighter looking for an exploitable cause. I fell in love with the cultures in
the middle east (mostly Arab/Arabian but also to an extent Hebrew and Persian) and after
dodging the politics for many years I just decided enough was enough. Too many people
either don't know, don't care, or just stay silent. I just wanted you to know where I
stand.
Thanks again for all that you people do and for offering to let me help,
Dave Colquitt
