[IMC-Editorial] Letter on Latest Suicide Bombing In Jerusalem

[The Ayn Rand Institute]

Dear Editor:
 
After this week's suicide bombing on a Jerusalem bus that killed at
least sixteen and wounded many more, it is worth asking again: How
many more Israelis have to be murdered before President Bush wakes up
to the reality that only a total war against Palestinian terrorists
will stop these attacks?
 
President Bush should stop acting as if the Israeli government and the
Palestinian regime were morally equal. The Israeli government
represents a free country, which protects (to a large extent) the
individual rights of its citizens, and acts only in self-defense to
eliminate the terrorists that threaten its people. The Palestinian
regime, in sharp contrast, is a collection of terrorists and
supporters of terrorism put together by the father of international
terrorism, Yasir Arafat; it's a regime that has no respect for the
individual rights of its own people, and whose main goal is the
destruction of Israel.
 
Thus the road map President Bush is trying--and succeeding--to shove
down Israel's throat was doomed to failure from the start.
 
It is past time for President Bush to abandon such misguided moral
relativism and choose sides: he is either with Israel or with the
terrorists.
 
Sincerely,
 
David Holcberg
