Begin Beloved

LETTER TO JERUSALEM POST

In ‘Suddenly Begin is beloved by all’ Anshel Pfeffer misses the great leader’s most important quality: a love and abiding compassion for his people.

Of which other leaders since Golda Meir can the same be said?

As Hezbollah re-arms and soup kitchens abound, the undignified squabble over ministerial portfolios and the next presidency betrays our current leadership’s complete lack of interest in the security and welfare of the people.

Any love and compassion is reserved strictly for themselves.
