Insane is such a big word, he's not insane, he is a self righteous idealist and like all self righteous idealist he is 100% sure that he is right and know the way of things and everything that does not match his point of view is wrong. well. i say lets put him in the same room with all the rest of humanity which is like minded (i.e. extreme right wing people, extreme left wing people, the Palestinian government, the Iranian government, most of the terror organizations, most of our government and of course, my late grandma and many many more)
point is: why are we making such a fuss about it? who gives a rat's ass if he'll show up in Israel or not? it is the Palestinians that booked him, if they don't want him to give lectures in Israel, its their choice.
