Letter to Rabbi Lerner of Tikkun Magazine

From: Dr. Michael Berenhaus [mailto:mberenhaus@comcast.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 12, 2006 10:01 AMTo: 'RabbiLerner@tikkun.org'Subject: Your article "Israel has Crossed a Moral Bondary




Rabbi Lerner,

You buy Hamas’ “urging” for the Israeli soldier to be released, but you don’t buy Israel’s responses. Interesting.

You say that this is a “defining moment in our relationship with Israel.” Please speak for yourself. Israel would be better off without the relationship that you seem to have with her. For me, 1948 was a defining moment, and my support for Israel will never waiver. You, on the other hand, are regularly quoted in Arab publications to prove that even Jews who are Rabbi’s feel that Israel is amoral. Please consider the anti-Semitism that your words evoke.

Michael Berenhaus,
