Author's poorly researched letter offers little substance

Editor,

Todd Goldblum’s letter to the editor, “The ‘single-state’ solution to Middle East conflict is violent,” in which he accuses Ali Abunimah of “hate and destruction,” is indicative of the kind of one-sided thinking that justifies an illegal and brutal occupation.

Rather than take responsibility for his false and biased beliefs by researching this subject, Goldblum relies on universally discredited Zionist myths that are deliberately designed to create hatred toward, and destruction of the Palestinian people.

He claims to be pro-peace and pro-Palestinian, yet his entire argument — from the UN Partition plan to the Arab invasion in 1948 to the 2000 Camp David Summit — is a testament to propaganda and prejudice.

If Goldblum was really interested in “equal rights” and a “brighter future” for Palestinian children, he would have the common decency to study the Israel-Palestine conflict’s documented history.

Israeli state, Central Zionist, David Ben-Gurion, Israeli Defense Forces and many other Israeli archives reveal the lies that have induced Goldblum to support policies that are anchored in unequal rights for Palestinians. They are intended to create a bleak future for their children. Furthermore, he would apologize for slandering a sincere human rights activist.
