But not knowing much about Adam Daifallah I did not try to describe him beyond the interesting fact he calls himself partly Palestinian. <BR/><BR/>Anyone following the link can make up his own mind. My point in the post wasn't to suggest that a few days in Israel transformed the guy; I just wanted to point out that some young Canadians can see through the MSM/leftist lens that blinkers so many of their university peers and that others can and should take this guy as a model. Perhaps it is all the more to Adam's credit if (as I agree was likely) he was already pro-Israel before he saw the place. That would suggest he saw the light younger than many of us - and then, did his family background hinder or help?truepeershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16401984575637492845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25624602.post-1168240375175604292007-01-07T23:12:00.000-08:002007-01-07T23:12:00.000-08:00It’s relevant to mention that this fellow is a con...It’s relevant to mention that this fellow is a conservative activist. I got the impression from reading this post that he was just some random Palestinian-Canadian student plucked from the blue. It’s unlikely that Adam’s trip was much of a 'road to Damascus' experience.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
