Finding a moderate Arab voice
I am very turned off by extremists in any direction. I came to value moderate views living among Israelis and Palestinians. I saw the futility of bunkering into a position that ultimately leads no one anywhere. The win only creates a loss creating another need to win.
I want to find moderate Arab voices. I didn’t even know they existed but I think I might be starting to stumble upon them. Arabs who can check some of the passion and bring logic and common sense to the table. These are Arabs I am beginning to respect and even admire. I am lucky that my co-teacher Mohamed El Naggar is very moderate and sensible.
As he speaks about the Arab states and their relationship to the West I can feel my perspective slowly changing. Our whole community is lucky to have him visit schools. If Americans in general could see a moderate Arab voice, I can’t even imagine what could happen.
aud'acious 
you’ve piqued my interest about Mohamed’s views. i agree with you about moderate voices and lament the fact that often the extremists get the most “air time.”
Living close to several Saudi families, I would like to share some moderate information with them in their native tongue. What websites can I go to? Thanks, Steve
