Top magazines continue to go nuts over KIND.  Men’s Health praised KIND Peanut Butter & Strawberry for being healthy and tasty, with the right amount of protein and strawberries that add a dash of sweetness while keeping sugar to a minimum.  All You recommends KIND as a great source of antioxidants when you need a tasty snack in the afternoon.  Self Magazine loves KIND bars so much that they are giving away 1,000 Blueberry Pecan bars to their beloved, lucky readers.  And if that’s not enough KIND bars up for grabs, Parenting is giving away a year’s supply of KIND bars and KIND Healthy Grains, along with two consultations with a registered dietician to help you snack your way to a new you.

No matter the reader, it seems that there’s a KIND for everyone!

Iran is no friend of Palestine

Published under Iran, Middle East, Palestine Jan 24, 2012

I have heard Saeb Erakat say the same thing at the World Economic Forum in Jordan a few years ago, and now  – in this interview – Prime Minister Fayyad reminded the world that the Palestinian cause gets hurt when the Iranian regime tries to hijack it for its own benefits.  Extremists should not be allowed to incite hatred and division for their own divisive purposes.  Moderate Israelis and Palestinians need to wake up to the need for them to work together to build two states that respect one another and fulfill the aspirations of their people.  It is the only way.
