Letter to the Editor from Simone Cohen Scott: Re: Israelis Living near Gaza

March 13,2024

I can't find anywhere in main or underground media, a comment or two about the devastating shock experienced  Israelis living near Gaza who weren't murdered, mutilated, or kidnapped, on October 7th in Israel,  It needs to be drawn to the attention of the world that the Jews who went with their families to live close by, Gaza did so  with an open "let's be friends," attitude, expecting to build bridges. Imagine if one morning your neighbour or faithful employee  appeared wìth a gang, weapons in hand, and slaughtered everyone in your vicinity!

What deep, soul- shattering, despair must be being felt by those idealists who now know, without a shadow of a doubt, that  "No  we really can't live side by side with them."
 
Respectfully, Simone Cohen Scott
