"My father was born in then-Palestine. He fought in the Haganah (the Israeli underground) in the war of independence; my father’s cousin, whose name I carry as a middle name, was killed in that war. I lived in Israel for seven years, during which I went through the 1973 war: a cousin of mine was killed in that war, leaving a young widow and two children, and his brother was wounded. My step-grandfather, an old man who was no threat to anyone, was killed by a Palestinian who took an axe to his head while he was sitting quietly on a park bench. Half my family still lives in Israel. I have seen enough bloodshed, tears, and parents burying their children to last many lifetimes.

"For that reason, I believe passionately in a two-state solution, which includes a strong, independent, economically viable Palestinian state existing alongside a strong, independent, economically vibrant Israel. It is the only solution that will bring peace to the civilians who now live in fear of death raining down from above—either because of the missiles of Hezbollah or the bombs of Israeli aircraft."

This article has numerous frivolous details and poorly supported expressions of opinion. Mr. Tasini's fluency in Hebrew, for instance, is not an item of general interest, nor is it shown to be relevant to his work or his prominence. Overall, the piece reads like a polemic designed to improve the subject's image rather than to report on his biography. A puff piece. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.247.160.66 (talk) 14:02, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
