PUTNEY-Steven K-Brooks responded to my letter defending the integrity of Jewish Voice for Peace by alleging that the organization "parrots Hamas."
He contends that the comparison I made to Mandela's peaceful transition away from apartheid in South Africa was wrong.
And he dismissed my reference to the Torah, which advocates "no truth, no justice, no peace." I cited the Torah as a guide to understanding the International Court of Justice's ruling that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.
What K-Brooks does not appear to know is that, like Hamas, the African National Congress (ANC) and Mandela were labeled as terrorists until he led the country out of apartheid into peace.
