Subject: Rockets and
wreaths.

Dear Editor:
The killing of innocent civilians and children by Suicide
bombers or Israeli bombing is criminal and must be condemned. Interestingly,
while rockets and condemnation, by Sharon supported by US leaders, are
pouring on Arafat and the Palestinians, wreaths are placed by US leaders on the
graves of Israeli victims. Need we wonder why the graves of innocent Palestinian
shool children, killed by Israeli boopy traps, amongst many others, are less
deserving?
Surely it is time for US and world leaders to appreciate
that the real problem is the continuing Israeli illegal and oppressive
occupation over the Palestinians. Complete termination of this occupation is the
only way to allow Israeli and Palestinian school children to go to school and
roam the streets in peace and security. That is what is called for and not
rockets and condemnation of Palestinians.
Yours sincerely,
Ismail Zayid, M.D.
