Letters
Beyond comprehension
font: small med large

As a black American who keeps a watchful eye on Middle East anything, the person from Seattle who writes: “Israel currently controls the lives of 2.5 million Palestinians in the West Bank. I therefore find it difficult to understand Wendy Rosen’s dire prediction” (“Israel must act,” Letters, June 24). It is beyond my ability to comprehend! Israel is the size of a Q-Tip by comparison to all of the Islamic nations that surround her and are calling for her destruction. The Palestinians who are actually Arabs tossed out of their countries have millions of acres of land to simply return to and yet they want a country… out of Israel?
Allowing another murderous regime in the Middle East within the borders of the ancient lands of Israel is just stupid! And so it goes with the American Jew born of the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s. My gosh, why don’t you go live in Palestine?
