I received a statement to the effect that "The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) is deeply troubled by the relentless criticism by conservative columnists, the New York Post and New York Sun regarding the Khalil Gibran International Academy (KGIA)." In response, the ADC is planning a strong response. It has called on all supporters and friends to express their outrage by attending a special celebration in honor of Prince Al-Walid bin Talal.
