Linking Northern and Central NJ, Bronx, Manhattan, Westchester and CT

From her relatively safe perch in Fair Lawn, New Jersey reader JoAnn Goldstein (“The Israeli Elections,” November 23, 2022) joins noted liberal hand-wringers journalist Thomas Friedman and Reform leader Rick Jacobs in bemoaning the rise of “homophobe, Jewish extremist” Itamar Ben Gvir. I would be interested in knowing which of Ben Gvir’s policies have earned him these pejoratives.

If believing that Israel has absolutely no obligation to create a terrorist state on her borders makes you an extremist, I, too, am a Jewish extremist.

If believing that Jews have a God given right to live anywhere in the land of Israel makes you an extremist, I, too, am a Jewish extremist.

If believing that the only punishment for terrorists is the death penalty, not a jail sentence in a comfortable Israeli jail makes you an extremist, I, too, am a Jewish extremist.

If believing Israelis should be able to wait at a bus stop without being rammed by a car or blown up by a bomb makes you an extremist, I, too, am a Jewish extremist.
