‘Peres’s Faux Pas’
David Twersky’s article, “Peres’s Faux Pas” [Oped, August 30, 2006] reminds us of the many near-fatal mistakes committed by Shimon Peres. This is the same man, who, when he lost to Benjamin Netanyahu in 1996 in the race for prime minister, declared that the “Israelis” had lost, and the “Jews” had won. For Mr. Peres to give acceptability to a Ned Lamont who encourages talks with Mahmoud Abbas is tantamount to putting Israel into the mouth of the lion. Mr. Abbas, a Holocaust denier, and right-hand assistant to terrorist leader Yasser Arafat, in bed with Hamas, Hezbollah, Fatah, Syria, Iran, and all the terrorist organizations and countries that are threatening the free world.
