Flotilla Future Member: Audacity of Hope

Nadene Goldfoot
Professor Rashid Khalidi from Columbia U., Obama's former friend from Chicago and Hamas sympathizer as called by Senator John McCain, belongs to the group, US Boat to Gaza.  They are trying to raise $370,000 to get the ship, Audacity of Hope,  to join the flotilla that intends to break the blockade into Gaza against Israel.

Khalidi is an outspoken critic of Israel.  This boat would hold 40-60 people.  He and the group are calling Israel an illegal occupier of Palestine.  Though this director of Middle East Institute at the Columbia School of International and Public Affairs does not plan to sail with the ship, he is doing his part in soliciting the money needed.  I can see that he must also supply his educational work with his biased outlook on Israel as well.  Actions speak louder than words.  I see that Obama failed in influencing Khalidi with a different outlook about Israel.
