To the Editor:
Re: the headline "Japan disaster and Itamar killings put Jewish giving on the spot," there does not seem to be any problems with the aid to Japan and/or to Itamar. So why the negativism? The article says that funds for both are neck and neck; that does not seem to have a negative attribute. On the contrary, it appears that both are doing well.
