Regarding Ophir Stemmer and Aaron Kaplowitz’s Friday letter to the editor (‘Who’s the hypocrite? Nov. 22, pg. 6):
If I were to write facts about Israel’s terror, it would make a library. Maybe you should look in the Holy Bible in Book Numbers, Chapter 33, number 52 that says, ‘you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places.’ That should be sufficient to describe what the Zionist Jews are up to.
On the other hand, I don’t think Israel is that powerful of an army either. With the amount of money that comes out of the United States citizens’ taxes, Israel is and can almost do anything in that region. According to a Jewish Organization, Not In My Name, the United States is paying $3 billion a year to Israel in addition to the Apache, Cobra and Comanche helicopters, and F16, F18 and F22 fighter jets. Let’s see what the Palestinians have stones, maybe a few homemade bombs and a gun maybe. Don’t you think this outweighs the aid Palestinians are getting from others? You might argue that’s for protection, but do you need F16 helicopters or $3 billion to protect you from stones?
What the Zionist Jews don’t understand is that Palestinians love their home, their water, their air, their country and the place they were born. Now that Palestinians have lost all of that, they are even under the plundering of the world’s most powerful country, the United States. I just hope anyone who blames the Palestinians have the guts to live in one of their tents at least for one day and see the horror they are going through. They should pass by the streets of Palestine, and witness the life of a single Palestinian.
With all the troubles Palestinians are going through, it is commendable how they have survived. It is more appropriate to say that Palestinians are more powerful than the Israeli Zionists.
