When will we learn?

Letters

Editor: I agree with your editorial question "When will Israel learn?" (Bulletin, Jan. 24) but my reasons may be a little different than yours. It is true that we do not have many Jews among us that have the qualities of Ms. Hannan Ashrawi. We tend not to excel at that level of manipulation, propaganda, injustice, revisionism, intolerance, self-glorification and smugness that passes as educated intellectualism these days. Yes, when will we learn to stop acting like Jews and start acting like the enlightened humanists?
