...freeze talk has historically been meaningless blather in Israel. The government "froze" the settlements in 2003 but has surreptitiously supported building through a network of agencies, so building approval increased at a rate of 40% between 2007 and 2008 alone, according to Yesh Din, an Israeli organization suing to stop outpost settlements. So much building has happened since the mid-1990s that the West Bank resembles a Jackson Pollock drip painting of Jewish and Arab lands, connected and disconnected by bypass roads and cement blocks.

...scowl and simmer. The rustling of these early birds soon joined up with the clamoring hiss behind us—a legion of cicadas, banging away on their timbals as they crept at our heels.It’s a good thing I was getting numb. Because the din finally got so bad that Reverend Lewis stopped talking. It was just for a second, but he looked right at me, all the way from up on high. I was finally ready to faint. But Ezekiel kept going as the reverend looked back up and said “Please?...

Although his superb dramatic presence never faltered, his voice was occasionally lost amid the din of the vast, 80 person orchestra.
