Reader comment on item: Thoughts on Hamas' Ascendance

Submitted by Helen Rauch-Elonekave (United States), Jan 29, 2006 at 06:38

Just as the blacks in the 1960s rightly preferred dealing with their southern white "enemies" in the south rather than sugar-mouthed liberals who were unaware of their own racism, so today Israel finally finds itself facing a straight-speaking enemy. No longer do we have to fight with a proverbial bag over our heads that blinds us, that is by the "peace rhetoric" of those who seek to destroy us.
