| 2007-10-21 | celestia | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I'm usually terribly critical of how i rate an expert but i really want to praise and show gratitude to how insightful your response was. I can't thank you enough for delivering clear and concise summary of what the quote relates to and thus, what is asked of me to understand and what i am to expect of its agenda. Thank you once again. I can't appreciate your help enough. And to think how fast you answered! XD I'm looking forward to show you my completed essay because i feel completely safe that i've hit the nail on the head so to speak. |

I wish you had been able to find it, but in an odd way it's nice to know I didn't just miss it somewhere. There really isn't any more info in the script, it's a story pretty much on its own. |

| 2006-08-09 | M Gandy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for such a clear, quick, and informative answer. |
| 2006-08-08 | David | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I agree. Their latest comments seem to be attempts at neutrality, but this means observation without judgement. Which is so frustrating, because people with any kind of moral compass have to make judgements. So when they say that the terrorists and Israel are equally at fault, the loser in that comparison is always the good guy, since we don't expect better from the terrorist. |
| 2006-08-07 | GM | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Extremely enlightening. Many thanks. |
Don Radlauer
Expertise
I`m originally from the United States, and now make my home in Israel - after living for some years in Hong Kong and England. In addition to handling general questions about Israeli life and history, I can field questions relating to strategic aspects of terrorism and counter-terrorism, as well as some tactical aspects. As an Associate of the International Policy Institute for Counter-Terrorism (ICT), I can draw on ICT`s accumulated expertise in this area. As the Lead Researcher for ICT`s "al-Aqsa Intifada" Database Project (and author of "An Engineered Tragedy", ICT`s report on the findings of this project), I have become the world`s leading expert (indeed, as far as I know, the world`s only expert) on the demographics of the victims of the phase of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that began in September 2000. Going beyond terrorism per se, I can answer questions regarding pretty much all aspects of the Israeli-Arab conflict.
Experience
Experience in the area
I've lived in Israel for over eight years.
For more than five years, I have been associated with the Institute for Counter-Terrorism at the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, Israel. My own role there is, to a degree, that of "expert in everything else" - that is, I'm less of a security expert than many of the other researchers there, but I have a broader background in other areas, including banking and finance, general scientific subjects, and so on. I also can draw upon the knowledge of other ICT staff.
