Letter: Defend Israel’s right to strike back at terrorism

Tuesday, Aug. 6, 2002 | 8:52 a.m.

We Americans here in the United States need to get off of our hypocritical butts and call Palestine what it is, a conglomerate of terrorists. I believe it is time for us to untie Israel's hands and let them do anything they feel is necessary to put a stop to terrorism in their country.

It sickens me every time I read about the habitual slaughter of innocent Israeli women, children and civilians in general. It must be awful to live in conditions that make it a possible life-or-death choice just to ride a transit bus, go shopping, go to a sandwich shop or go anywhere in public.

If Palestine wants Israel's military actions in Jenin and other terrorist hot beds stopped, they need to stop Hamas and all other terrorist organizations operating in Israel.
