Subject: Re: The Road Map Author: Rob [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 00:20:48 06/13/03 Fri In reply to: Stanley Levin 's message, "The Road Map" on 13:57:20 06/03/03 Tue Subject: Letter to The President Dear Mr. President: On June 8, five Israeli soldiers were murdered by the PLO. They were given the capacity to do so largely because you forced Israel to relax security controls. Yet neither you nor your spokesmen said you were "deeply troubled" or even "troubled" by these Israeli deaths. On June 10, Israel retaliated by trying to eliminate Rantisi, a vicious leader of Hamas. That same day you told reporters in the Oval Office that: "I am troubled by the recent Israeli helicopter gunship attacks." Your spokesmen went further and said you were "deeply troubled" by Israel's acts of self defense. Mr. President, I think you have it backwards. The deaths of the five Israeli soldiers on June 8 should trouble you very much. Their blood should be on your conscience because it was your demand that Israel ease PLO travel restrictions which caused their deaths. But Israel's self defense against Islamic terror on June 10 should not trouble you at all. It is not different from America's war on the Taliban in the wake of 9/11, and is equally justified if not more so. Because if America has the right to go half way around the world to fight Islamic terror, surely Israel has the right to do so in its own back yard. Your silent acquiescence of Arabs murdering Jews on June 8, followed by your public protestations of being "troubled" by Jews fighting back to protect themselves on June 10, are elements of a poor policy. They appease and encourage Islamic terrorists everywhere. After 9/11, I would think that is something your administration would wish to avoid. Sincerely, [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
