Dear Editor,
On Dec. 10, 2006, The Detroit Free Press printed several letters condemning Israel for allegedly “oppressing the Palestinian Arabs”. Up until the recent Intifada, started by the Palestinian Arabs, the Palestinian Arabs had near the highest standard of living of any non-oil producing Arab country. Palestinian Arabs send men, even women and children as young as 16, with bombs strapped to their waist to blow up themselves and untold Israeli men, women, and children in shopping malls, schools, and pizza shops – what are they expecting – for Israel to roll out a red carpet? A security barrier was put in place and its working - the suicide bombings have been largely reduced.
Actions have consequences. In effect, the Palestinian Arabs constructed the barrier – and it is up to them when it can be taken down.
