Letter to NYT:
Roger Cohen is at it again: excoriating Israel for being the "systematic oppressors of another people", while not laying even the lightest finger on the Palestinians. ("Jews in a Whisper", IHT, August 20).
Nary a whisper of the need for the Palestinian leadership to adhere to UN Resolution 242; nary a whisper of Hamas' genocidal Charter; nary a whisper that past offers of West Bank return have been met with murderous intifadas.
What evidence is there that unilateral handing over of the West Bank will result in anything other than yet more intifadas? None, except wishful thinking. More likely is that "Jews in a Whisper" will become "Jews in a Tumbrel".
