with helping others." <br>

your and your family's life. The examples of the 'righteous ones' -- your
Egyptian Muslim neighbor and your British colleague -- served to illustrate
that there are decent people everywhere, and that even under the mast dangerous
circumstances the true human spirit will shine through the darkness of evil and
destruction."<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
