On Januray 22, 2009 Mairead Maguire responded to my  email inquiry asking her opinion about the appointment of Senator George Mitchell.

Dear Eileen,

Senator  Mitchell is a good man whom I admire as he  helped  in the peace process in Northern Ireland. I remember he travelled well over 100 times from USA to Northern Ireland to help bring the various parties together and was very helpful.

I am glad he has been appointed and know he will bring great compassion, fairness and perseverance to his enormous challenge.  Yes, like him I believe every conflict can be solved, where there is political will.  The conflict of the  Israeli state and Palestinian state (yes I said Palestinian state as even if Israel does not recognize it the world does) can be solved by Israel ending its occupation and apartheid system and this is a problem of political will of Israel and USA to bring freedom and justice to the people of Palestine.  I hope  the appointment of Senator Mitchell is a sign that the USA Administration is prepared to treat both parties fairly and equally,  and to work for Palestinians Human rights and Freedom.

Peace Eileen, Mairead
