Part of the tragedy of the Palestinians is that they have essentially no international support for a good reason: they've no wealth, they've no power, so they've no rights.

Oh..wow! Thanks for the information. I'm definitely looking forward to this release as I've been wanting to listen to his 8th symphony for a number years. I didn't even know he composed a Violin Concerto. Interesting.
