Anybody want to come to this talk this evening? I have one ticket going after the person I was supposed to be going with fell ill.

The information I was sent on it, in addition to the Facebook event listing, reads:
A recent blogger who attended an event with Khaled wrote:
When Toameh spoke, what stood out was not that he is pro-Israel, but that he is pro-Palestine.
When he asked students, “What makes you pro-Palestinian?” the answers were usually the same: “Israel is an apartheid state, Israel is a violent occupier, etc.”
“But that’s anti-Israel,” he challenged them. “That’s not pro-Palestine. I’m pro-Palestine. What makes you pro-Palestine?
“If you’re really pro-Palestine, come help us instead of just spewing poison about Israel.”
Khaled is an Israeli-Arab journalist who writes for the Jerusalem Post. An excellent speaker, with a point of view you don’t get every day.
