To be in a room containing over 200 people with total silence was awesome and I can’t remember that ever happening before. I don’t know if you were aware of the silence but there wasn’t a single cough, any sound of people whispering or shuffling, just stillness. I think that some people had even forgotten to breathe!
Immensely powerful – a raw honesty which I found incredibly thought provoking and above all humbling.

Your ability to describe your ordeal was so clear: I felt that I was in the plane with you, in the desert with you and in the cell with you. I know I could never possible imagine, for real, what you went through and I sincerely hope no-one else ever has to endure that sort of treatment again.

John Peters was inspirational. This wasn’t said lightly. He was moving and funny. Remember his photo so well… the man behind that photograph is more memorable. Thank you for the opportunity to listen to him.
I have recounted your speech to numerous friends and actually feel that I was inside that cockpit with you as you conducted your mission.
