Dear Mr. Pipes,

Rabbi Kahane of the JDL was murdered by the same terror cell fronted by a NJ(?) mosque, that was legally exonerated for the murder, and later bombed the WTC in '93. Please realize his ideas in Israel may have been extreme, but his message of Jewish self-reliance, defence and vigilance was priceless. He's worth mentioning.

I feel our State Dept. has much to answer for in allowing the pre-9/11 mindset of turning the cheek to previous terror attacks against Americans and Israelis.

Is not the Iran nuke public-enemy number one for Israel and the world?

Happy holidays,

Bruce Boyman
