I’d like to commend Sid Schwartz for his opinion piece criticizing censorship in the Jewish community, especially around matters regarding Israel (“Limiting Debate On Israel Will Only Hurt Us,” Feb. 7).
Not only is the
attempt to delegitimize Jewish voices fundamentally problematic, but it also
seems to be the minority who attempts to censor the majority of American
Jews, who do believe in policies like Palestinian statehood and negotiations
with Iran.
