Dr. Fady Joudah, I am just now meeting you during this current horror and hearing that you lost 17 people. Your words today on MSNBC opened me to learn more from you! Yes, humanity is in great need. When will the repeated assaults on Palestinian people stop? You are a great human and doctor and the world needs to hear you.
