John Scrivener claims that The Echo ‘refrains from any mention of the momentous developments regarding Palestine over the past few months’.
Sadly, we all know that The Echo has had plenty of these letters, and a large percentage were against Israel with many statements that lack truth.
Regardless of this, people on both sides are suffering greatly, especially the Palestinian civilians. Now Iran who because of the ongoing attacks against Palestine launched a huge multi-pronged attack on Israel directly from its territory trying to initiate a regional war, since its ongoing attacks on Israel from Lebanon and other countries have not succeeded. This is the only reason the Iranian military high command is in Syria and Lebanon in the first place and was the only reason they were targeted by Israel in Syria.
Luckily Israel, along with Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the US, UK and France fought off the attack and succeeded.
A huge percentage of Iranians are peace loving and are against their violent extreme Islamist government and actually don’t want a war against Israel.
I look forward to the day that there are no letters in The Echo about the region from me or anyone else, unless they are about examples of coexistence since Palestinians and Israelis have more in common as people than not. John, I respectfully invite you to look for these qualities in both people. Peace is the only solution.
Danny may need to reassess his comment on starting a regional war. No fan of the current government I. Iran they did state they would retaliate for the attack by Israel on their embassy. Sounds very similar to what’s happened in Gaza but on a very limited scale.
