A Mideast Wall
To the Editor:
Re ''No Peace in Sight, Israelis Trust in a Wall'' (front page, Dec. 17):
To say Israel's construction of a security wall reflects, from the Palestinian viewpoint, ''clear and pure'' hate on Israel's part is to ignore history.
Israel offered more than 90 percent of the West Bank to the Palestinians at Camp David. There was no hatred, only hope for peaceful coexistence. The Palestinians chose instead to start the present war.
The current situation, in which Israel needs a wall for its own safety, was not Israel's choice, but the Palestinians'.
