Two Wrongs, Racism And Hatred, Do Not Make A Right
Tuesday January 13, 2009
Paul Sheehan's description of the racist nature of some of the anti-Israel demonstrations is chilling ("It's too easy just to blame the Jews", January 12). The placards and chants are nothing more than racist hatred. That there has been barely a word spoken in protest is shocking. The Islamic community has the right to protest peacefully, but that does not extend to whipping up racism and hatred against another ethnic minority.
