Abstract

In this letter, the author denounces the hypocrisy of members of the Israeli Peace Now Movement, who seem surprised, even angry, at the eruption of a second Intifada in the Occupied Territories. “A conquering army is using tanks and helicopter gunships to disperse demonstrations. What is so hard to understand here?... Seven years of deceptions and violations of agreements, and the Palestinians rise up. What is so hard to grasp?” he asks.
