Conferring Respectability on Indifference?

Conferring Respectability on Indifference?A Letter to The Independent

Sir,
 
The people William Garrett (letters 17 August) was referring to when he wrote of 'Zionist "boat people"' flooding into British-ruled Palestine prior to 1947, were European Jews fleeing Nazi persecution.
 
I do not know which is more astonishing.  Mr Garrett's apparent indifference to the plight of the Jews fleeing for their lives, or your decision to confer respectability on such indifference by publishing his letter.
 
Yours

Then it was the separation fence that would hermetically seal Israel from the violent Middle East.

Now—with missiles’ ability to surmount a fence constantly and graphically on display in the Gaza arena—it’s missile defense, another supposed cure-all that Barak is already pushing.

Barak is described in the Israeli press as now believing Israel can withdraw from the West Bank in three to five years. By that time it can “develop and deploy an effective anti-missile system . . . capable of intercepting anything from Iran’s long-range Shihab-3 missile to the short-range, relatively primitive Palestinian Qassams.”
