Letter to the editor:

To attack Israel is to attack US

I praise the Trump administration for shuttering the Palestine Liberation Organization diplomatic office in Washington.

National security adviser John Bolton said “the Palestinians refuse to take steps to start direct and meaningful negotiations with Israel.” Therefore, our State Department has instructed the PLO to vacate the property.

Too long has America coddled those who call us “the great Satan” and those who vow to “wipe Israel off the map.”

Such an appeasement policy didn’t work in preventing World War II and it won’t work now!

Israel is not only our closest ally in the Middle East, but our closest ally in the world.

Therefore, as America this year finally recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, we’ve made it clear to those who hate America and Israel that any attack on Israel is an attack on America.
