[Peace-discuss] Re: [Peace] Fwd: Summer Programmes, Galillee College, Israel, July 2nd - August 5th, 2008

I'm very interested in this idea; however, I wonder if anyone has any
educated advice on whether or not this program will really be as "balanced"
as they claim (especially coming from an Israeli university...) and if those
limitations would be great enough to outweigh the positive aspects of an
experience like this.
