Professor Said's death is indeed a great loss to the Palestinian cause and to the intellectual world. How coincidental that I was reading his 'Power, Politics, and Culture: Interviews with Edward Said' when I saw the breaking news on TV. I hope other intellectuals will similarly stand up to the unjust treatment of weaker nations and peoples of this world.
