It’s about time someone wrote about the atrocities Hamas committed. Bravo, to letter writer Jill Levy. Would people condemn our country if Mexico were to invade us and we retaliated with mighty force? I doubt it. The only concerns for the hostages seem to come from the countries where the hostages are citizens.
Hamas, and its compatriots in Lebanon, are intent on war. Israel could wipe them out if it didn’t have concerns for ordinary citizens in those countries. Israel has a heart. Hamas has only intent to kill.
Let’s hear it from all those condemners that Israel has the right to defend itself.
