The Silent Majority (?)
Reader comment on item: Pro-Israel Palestinians

Submitted by Pat (United States), May 10, 2005 at 11:15

If the majority of Palestinians are in accord with those quoted in your article, then it is time for them to speak up. As long as they remain silent, we in the West are forced to conclude that they agree with the leaders of the PA. We cannot change their society for them. It is up to them to decide which they want more: their own democracy or the destruction of Israel.
