After having heard Obama's incredible "Cairo speech", I feel the urge to say that the new community "Bridging the empathy gap - Yes we can!" should seriously consider analyzing it in depth, discuss it on line, and suggest concrete actions both on a national (improving the dialogue between mainstream americans and american muslims) and international level (possibly promoting the interfaith dialogue between tenants of the three monoteistic religions). No matter how difficult it is going to be, it would be good that such a dialogue should not be conducted only in English, but also in other languages.
