Richard Gere Attracts Israelis & Palestinians

Richard Gere came to visit the Middle East a few years ago and attracted more attention than most politicians. He was also careful to say that he was coming to listen, rather than to make statements. Mr. Gere listened to everyone, from Hamas supporters to Jewish settlers, and in turn all sides flocked to see him.

Celebrities:

I think it is important for celebrities to use their "star power" to bring attention and the media to an issue. It is unfortunate that we live in a entertainment/media driven society. However I don't think the opinions of celebrities should be given any more weight than the opinion of others familiar with a situation. Just because I played a cop in the movies doesn't mean I can be a cop for real!

Are you on drugs?

J. Rhinehart:

I agree with Mr. Kuttab. And I like Richard Gere. I think he is a man who tries to do good, as much as he can. How better can a person do?

I don't fault anyone for trying, even if they give up too soon. That's a very hard thing to do, working to help people in trouble. Not everyone can do it, in fact, I've found very few can do a lot up close. Everyone is inclined to get out their checkbook, but not get down in the mud. Those are very special people who can see such pain & misery day after day and still keep their hope.
