Ed Kass offers a rebuttal to Richard Sherman's letter of September 9 stating that Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria are legal.

As we move into the new year following Rosh Hashanah, we've been reflecting on the great privilege it has been to care for members of this community over the past year.

Is it too much to ask of the City to make clear that no political cause gives anyone permission to intimidate fellow citizens. Jews should not have to accept behavior that Boulder would recognize as unacceptable if it were directed toward another community.

Ed Kass ("Opinion: Needed Now. Ometz Lev" 9/3/26 BJN) is either ignorant of or willfully blind to the fact that all "Jewish settlements" in Judea and Samaria are totally consistent with Article 80 of the United Nations Charter, the controlling international law concerning Israel.

The New York Times and Muhammad Shehada are wilfully blind to the one and only thing that Hamas must do to instill a least a scintilla of credibility in their claim, totally mendacious until now, that they are interested in peace.

It was truly refreshing to read that there are people in Hollywood who appreciate the many contributions that Jews had made, and are continuing to make, to the entertainment industry.

Thanks to the writer who so vehemently called out Hollywood’s anti-Israel agenda. I have no qualms about anything he wrote, except to try and mitigate the painful points presented with a bit of more positive perspectives.

Mayor Mamdani since he was at Bowdoin has embraced every Zionophobic pronouncement of the National Students for Justice in Palestine, a Jew-hating organization that has consistently celebrated the koranic butchery of 1200 Jews on 10/7.

Indeed, there is a lot of violence in Judea and Samaria, areas of historical and religious importance to Jews, called "The West Bank" by people who claim that the Zionist enterprise is "colonialist."

I find it extremely offensive to label Jews as extremist settlers!

The 103 Zionophobic House Democrats who voted for all time to never support the self defense of the Jewish people of Israel have rejected the proud Zionism of JFK and the proud Zionism of the Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr.

I agree that anyone in public office must accept criticism of his country's actions. However, Israel is in the unusual situation of being criticized for what it is (the Nation-State of the Jews), rather than for what it does.

I believe that Melat Kiros and Darialize Avila Chevalier are sincere in their concern for the plight of the stateless and poor Palestinians. However, I feel obliged to point out that Israel is not responsible for the Palestinians' plight.

Recently the Brooklyn Park Slope Food Coop banned products from Judea and Samaria where Jews have resided for over 3500 years, and a Brooklyn coffee shop posted on social media that Jews are not welcome.

The UAW, by divesting from Israel Bonds and thereby goose stepping to Omar Barghouti's BDS movement, has thrown the proud Zionism of UAW legend Walter Reuther and the Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr under the bus. 

During his June 18 press conference, VP Vance stated, regarding Iran, that “their nuclear program has been totally destroyed.” 

Eight University of Michigan students have been indicted for threatening to poison an individual, witness intimidation, and many other conspiratorial violent acts while using "divestment from Israel" as a cover.

If only Palestinians were working toward living the American dream--building better lives for their children, having a country of their own where they could speak freely and participate in free and fair elections, and co-existing, peacefully, with their neighbors-- what a wonderful world it would be.

Bruce Ticker is correct about Sen. Hollen. The true 'Palestinian cause' isn't a quest for a Palestinian state; it's an attempt to destroy the world's only Jewish state.

The level of Jew hatred in England has reached Hitlerian proportions now that much of the British medical establishment publicly refuses to treat Jewish patients from Israel under any circumstances.

More rebuttals against New York City Mayor Mamdani's recent Nakba Day statements.

Toby Block tries to make sense of Bruce Ticker's recent column on a West Coast trial.

Richard Sherman critiques Mayor Mamdani's portrayal of Nakba history, asserting inaccuracies regarding Inea Bushnaq's background and the "Visit Palestine" poster.

The letter discusses Bruce Ticker’s views on Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts, critiques Arafat's rejection of peace offers, and defends Israel's military actions.
