8:04 - So far, the only real problems from the audience have been some coughs, scoughs, and laughs from the CAN/ISO people sitting behind me. Don't get me wrong, I love their passion but they are playing right into Mr. Horowitz's gameplan when they try to cut him off. It hasn't been bad yet, but I'm a little worried it might get their if he says something really contraversial.

He's now explaining the history of the name of Palestine, it seems a little off topic for this debate. I mean, I love me some history but let's get on to current events, I think we can move on from the Romans and the Philistines.

8:08 - What interesting is that he still says that all of the liberals in the crowd are attacking the event. He says that "we" are the ones who aren't complaining about the political situation in Jordan... Mr. Horowitz, we're here, we're listening, we're not attacking you. Part of me thinks he only prepared about a ten minute lecture because he thought we weren't going to behave.

Come on team, we're doing well. Let's hold it together here. Be respectful, give the man his freedom of speech, and let's get to the question and answer period.

It's shocking how uninformed the left is on the history of the Israeli conflict, and therefore, that history is important. Here at UW, we have classes where we are learning, literally, falsities about who the "Palestinians" are.
