I FOUND Steve Cohen's article on. the links between anti-semitism and immigration controls (7 June) really interesting. But the lesson drew regarding the links fighting• Llorism and anti-semitism cown.

This meant that the Israeli state could only be established Zionism because we support the rights of the victims of colonialism. This we should support the rights of the Paletinian Arabs to return to their homeland (regardless of the fact that this may mean the destruction of the Israeli state).
