Re: “The Wrong to Remain Silent by Ariela Rutkin-Becker,” Letters, Jan. 28

Ariela Rutkin-Becker overflows with feeling in her recent article “The Wrong to Remain Silent,” but unfortunately she lets this emotion get in the way of reason.

You don't have a heart if you do not feel pain for each and every innocent Palestinian Arab who has suffered in Gaza. You don’t have a brain if you fail to understand that those responsible for the suffering are the Palestinian Arabs themselves.
