The rebut that I expected. I do not however, expect to be lumped in with a group that I lay no public claim to. My dear Mr. Mohel... I explained that my feelings were not as emotional as yours and I wrote of MY feelings on a very superficial level. I have no idea what the so called "peace activists" had done to you to provoke such hard feelings nor do I see where I have said anything that expressed concern for my life due to flash mobs, but give me full credit for the way you feel about what I personally said. I have not ridiculed you or your followers. Actually, I believe we need people like you to keep the rest of us thinking. Thank you for that Mohel.
