To the editor,

Headlines say that Israel is at war for its survival. Israel has been crying that each time they go on a binge of aggression. The people in a real struggle for survival are the Palestinians. Israel’s ultimate goal is the eradication, by whatever means, of Palestinians from “their land.” How would you, the reader, feel if your land was stolen, you were forced into refugee (concentration) camps, your home and/or car leveled, water supplies destroyed along with means of making a living, constant searches, beatings, torture and murder, special permission to work, special I.D. cards to be carried at all times and special permission to sell property (and then only to a Jew, your oppressor).

Israel’s “final solution” of the “Palestinian problem” is being played out before the eyes of the world, and yet the world just stares back.

Jews have been holding the world hostage to the Holocaust for 60 years, and yet everything the Nazis did to them is being hypocritically done to the Palestinians. Zionism and Aryanism are mirror images of each other. Orthodox Jews are taught from the Talmud and Halakhah that non-Jews are unworthy to live and are no better than animals (Goyim). This is part and parcel to Israeli policy toward Palestinians.

Cal Thomas’ editorial in Tuesday’s Journal-World is particularly galling because everything he says can also be said of Israelis. So, who are the terrorists and who are the freedom fighters?
