I'm afraid not, Said! Unfortunately, most of the sane people think that you're an utter prat! Ask them who they'd prefer to meet: Edward Said or the man, who cleans out the public toilets in Aberdeen, and they'd go for Wee Jock "Poo-Pong" McPlop every time.
@intifada1989 I knew him slightly he was a great patriot (and musician) but his essay on Jane Austen is terrible! Also I taught John Le Carre's Little Drummer Girl--Le Carre is very pro Palestinan but Edward thought the book pro Israeli because it put the Palestinian position in Israeli mouths--true- but it is the ONLY book that I have ever been able to use to change people's minds--propaganda never works--but Le Carre's book has changed even some zionist hearts. But God bless his soul
Edouard Saed was the voice of peace...another voice of Palestine ...the connection between oriental civilisation's and occidental's civilisation...Just a wonderful man...RIP may god bless his soul.

I cried so much when he died. He was a true visionary. I disagreed with him on some issues, but he was truly a wonderful man.

There are few people with a mind and heart as far-reaching as this man's. Brilliant scholar, true humanitarian.
