"Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us". Eric, this infamous Golda Meir comment that you quote is repugnant. No one should generalize about any ethnic group/religion or nationality. You as a Jewish person know that some people historically have made all kinds of derogatory comments about Jews. Thats why I am surprised that you are quoting it. I can guarantee you that most Arabs DO NOT hate Jews more than they love their children.
Again, Hamas is an extremist organization and what they did is horrific. Hamas DOES NOT however represent all Arabs or Palestinians. There are over 150 million Arabs while Hamas has 20-30K militants at most. This is like saying the KKK represented all Americans. It is also like saying that the Irgun, the 1940s terrorist organization represented all Jews ( a leader of the Irgun, Menahem Begin, became Prime Minister of Israel by the way ).
My question to you is how many thousands of dead children ( so far 4000 ) are we willing to accept in this war against Hamas? Is there a limit? is it 10K, 15K....? As the UN Secretary General said 2 days ago: "Now, for nearly one month, civilians in Gaza, including children and women, have been besieged, denied aid, killed, and bombed out of their homes. This must stop." Wolf Blitzer on CNN was incredulous when the IDF spokesman, told him that yes Israel bombed a refugee camp killing over 100 civilians in order to kill one Hamas commander. Some examples of the unintended consequences of merciless bombing and invasions: When Israel bombed the shit out of Lebanon in 1982 killing thousands of civilians what was the result? The birth of Hezbollah. When the US invaded Iraq resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands what was the result? The birth of ISIS.
I want to see a stop to the carpet bombing. I want the hostages released ( many of whom by the way may have been killed already by the bombing ). Israel can go after Hamas leaders one by one ( like the US did with Bin Laden ). And I want a renewed focus by the US on a permanent settlement of the conflict, one that gives Israelis security and Palestinians their freedom.
Hello Sir, I just read your letter. Am an active HF manager, not retired ! but I share something with your daughter: I hate needles, I am hyper sensitive to jabs etc, hyperventilate when I have to have one for covid for ex. etc. But there is a solution! There is this cream that I use, I buy it from my local pharmacy. I apply it 40mn on the skin before the needle and honestly, I don't feel the pain. It really works for me. I suggest you check it out or the equivalent in the US: Emla 5%, 5g tube. There is also a
patch but I suggest the tube as I can put the whole tune (almost!) on the skin! Hope it helps anyway. Best Regards. Samuel Joab.
Thank you!!! I’ll check it out.
