How do you explain today?

It's 12 and we just got back to the room and I can't begin to summarize the range of conversations we had today nor the Jordanians we interacted with. Here is a sample; Jesus in Islam, Mohammed's sex life, the Palistinian question, the tribal competiton in Jordan, America's misunderstanding of the Middle East, bedouian honor killings, revenge cultures, Iranian threats to the ME, the future of Iraq, how can this American women be homeless in Amman wiith 3 children, etc etc. The Jordanians included professors, pastors, Air Force officers, bedouian tribal leaders, NGO leaders, etc. It was a very interesting day trying to solve the problems of the ME. We go to sleep with the sense that only Jesus can win the day.
We leave early in the morning for the border...then to Haifa for some more interviews...then to Tel Aviv for a. Short night. I have to be at the airport at 3 am. Kris goes later. Jay
