push for that type of a solu-
tion? Let the Arab members
of the military coalition band
together in an attempt to
bring Saddam Hussein into
the community of nations,
and failing that, intervene
militarily.
We have armed them, train-
ed them, and witnessed their
combat skills. We have
diminished the fighting
capabilities of their tormen-
tor who seems to be able to
fight and win, only when his
opposition is poorly armed,
poorly led, or civilians. This is
their region, and any lasting
solution must come from
those who live in that region.
This is wholly consistent
with the Israeli view that an
enduring peace can only be
achieved by an agreement
between the nations of the
region, not by the imposition
of an "outside" program.
There is another aspect to
this dilemma, and that is the
moral issue. How can we
stand by and watch the
slaughter of innocents, by
anyone, especially an
acknowledged sadist? My
reaction to this is, "How can
anyone allow this to happen?"
Where is King Hussein,
Yassir Arafat, Moammar
Qaddafi? Where are their
voices in opposition to the car-
nage that is being heaped
upon their Arab brothers, by
their Arab brothers?
Where are the voices in op-
position from the Saudis, the
Kuwaitis, the Syrians, the
Russians, the Japanese, etc.,
etc. If opposition exists, it is
weak and muffled.
Why then should the
United States opposition be
required to be forceful and
loud? We did what we had to
do, we did it exceedingly well,
with an expertly trained staff
of courageous military per-
sonnel, and we obeyed inter-
national law.
I grow weary of those who
always find fault with what
we do. If we fight it is no good.
If we don't fight it is no good.
If we win too fast, it is no
good. If the war drags on, it is
no good. If the casualties are
high it is no good. If our
casualties are low, but our
enemies' are high, it is no
good.
I am proud of our armed
forces, their leaders, and our
president. They did one hell of
a job and it's time to tell them
SO.

Sinai's Care
Is Lauded
For the Jewish community
to hesitate to drive the few ex-
tra miles to reach Sinai
Hospital, it is not doing itself
any favor.
My recent hospitalization
was made much easier by the
wonderful caring, dedicated
and professional employees,
volunteers and physicians at
Sinai.
We are all very fortunate to
have an institution of Sinai's
stature in the metropolitan
Detroit area and it rightly
deserves the support of the
entire Jewish Community, or
in your time of need it may
not be there.

Comparing Poles
To The Nazis
Managing Editor Phil
Jacobs' editorial "Is This For
Real, Mr. Walesa?" (April 5) is
a disgrace. He writes:
"Poland's anti-Semites would
not hesitate to repaint and
refit their boxcars and use
them again."
The Germans — not the
Poles — put Jews in boxcars.
Yes, anti-Semitism was deep
and widespread in Poland,
but Poles did not put Jews in-
to concentration camps.
Poland was the site of the
camps but the Poles did not
build the camps. Poles 'too
perished in the camps.
Jews are a wounded people
but so are the Poles. An editor
of a Jewish paper ought to be
better informed, and more
careful of what is written,
about a very sensitive and
emotional -topic.
By the way, I am Jewish.

Don't Compare
The Holocaust
May I object to the article
by Phil Jacobs comparing the
boxcar from Poland with the
bomber Enola Gay which he
saw at the Smithsonian
Institute.
It is wrong to compare the
Holocaust to anything. It is
particularly wrong to com-
pare an action of our country
at war with the Polish-Ger-
man actions of killing
millions of noncombatants,
many of them, their own
citizens.
There were 80,000 killed at
Hiroshima; there were 12
million killed in the killing
camps such as Auschwitz (6
million Jews, 6 million
others).
There should be no compar-
ing the Holocaust with an act
of war. That is a sin.
