To the editor: What stands out to me within the protests in opposition to Israeli management is that Israel is a democracy that permits for dissenting voices to be heard. (“Strikes and protests roil a divided Israel amid funerals for hostages, including California native,” Sept. 2)
The place are the Palestinians demonstrating in opposition to the Hamas terrorist leaders within the Gaza Strip? Hamas fighters barbarically murdered Israelis at a music competition, took hostages and killed hostages. It’s the reason for hundreds of Palestinian civilian deaths.
Let’s see protests in opposition to Hamas within the West Financial institution and Arab international locations. Is it simply that they don’t have the liberty Israelis get pleasure from, or do they approve of Hamas’ mission to kill Jews?

To the editor: It’s hypocritical for President Biden to specific disgust on the homicide of six Israeli hostages and state that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not be doing sufficient to result in peace.
Netanyahu is aware of that Biden will proceed to provide him with weapons to kill harmless Palestinians regardless, so he can afford to disregard him.
With a stroke of his pen, Biden might cease arms shipments to Israel, and Netanyahu would cease the carnage instantly.

To the editor: Six Israeli hostages have been murdered in chilly blood. That is one other heinous, despicable crime perpetrated by Hamas. Israel, as to be anticipated, will retaliate severely.
Anticipate then that Israel’s critics will scream quietly about what Hamas has executed, but scream “bloody homicide” very loudly at what the Israelis will probably be doing.
Hamas, by its very mandate, is directed to the destruction of Israel. How, subsequently, ought to Israel negotiate with a bunch that’s ideologically decided to destroy its folks?
I subsequently ask that Israel’s critics spare us their piety and requires a “balanced” response. Israel will do what it should to outlive.

To the editor: After seeing the large protests ensuing from the deaths of six Israeli hostages, Benjamin Netanyahu fired again with, “Nobody will preach to me.”
Right here is the thoughts of a dictator revealed.
A democratically minded prime minister would say, “I’m right here to serve the need of the folks, as our legal guidelines require, so I’ll pay shut consideration to their issues.”
A despot pays no consideration to the need of the folks. He has no room for studying, no need for compromise, no must serve.
