Editor,

Regarding the letter Oct. 2, “Palestinian state?” And when did an Israel ever exist? Other than being forced down the world’s throat by the wealth of the Rothschild in Britain?

Thanks for your letter, Azmat, but when Hamas made a choice to attack Israel, slaughter over 1200 people and take hostages (some of which they still hold, dead and alive) they made their bed, so to speak, whether they realized the consequences of their actions or not. Hamas has always had the choice to surrender unconditionally and release all hostages but since they haven’t, they deserve the response from Israel they’ve received, no matter how disproportionate some believe it is. Let’s see if the end is near. If not, more power to Netanyahu to finish his mission.

Super letter Asmat.Says so much valuable info in such a small space. I"m looking at the wise words of folks like Hannah Arendt, Albert Einstein, and Martin Buber back in the 20s,30s and 40s who felt that to try to creat a safe haven for the world's Jewish people under oppression, you had to do it in full co-operation with the indigenous population, and not try to exclude/displace them. So sad their voices we not heeded. So here we are. Still it's never too late but it is getting there.

Cheers, Mike
