CNI Foundation ad in Sunday NYT, 4/22/07
Reader comment on item: My Disrupted Talk at UCLA

Dear Mr. Pipes, I hope you read this and reply either in your column or to me.

I am outraged at the ad placed by CNI Foundation (whatever kind of anti-Semitic organization it is!) criticizing Israel, and saying "...deal with Israeli apartheid in Palestine."

They say nothing about the millions of Arabs living within Israel with more rights than they could have in any Arab country. They don't say the reason Israel is building a fence it to protect itself from the insane suicide bombers. They don't say the aim of the aim of the militant Palestinians is to totally destroy Israel.

Are you answering them? Is someone going to raise a voice against these poisonous people?

The total ad is a huge lie and propoganda against Israel. I am sick over it, and don't know where to turn to protest, other than to write to the CNI, and to the NYT.

Mr Pipes, how can this awful ad be dealt with?

Thanks for any guidance and advice.

Sorry, am not answering it. One could spend one's whole career replying to others. I think it's a better use of my time to come up with my own ideas.
