THE LIFE and DEATH of the "TWO-STATE SOLUTION" - APPENDIX
                         By  Mark Bruzonsky and Hisham Ahmed


                                                                                                
 Professor Hisham Ahmed         Ahmed with Yasser Arafat           Mark Bruzonsky                 Bruzonsky with Hillary Clinton


When we began this book we thought a major Appendix would be a way of making good use of major things we have written from the past and enhancing our credibility.   As we have progressed with the book we think maybe this original idea is unnecessary and unwise.  The book may be more viable if not filled with so much past material.
Rather we could instead make these past materials available at a website associated with the book.  And this website might also offer a comments forum.   Here on this page we have kept the original Appendix idea and the list of things we had intended to include.

APPENDIX:   Throughout the book we at times make reference to past writings, TV appearances, and events we were personally involved with. 
                        When we do these will be footnoted and included in the Appendix.  Among these:
