Dear all,
Can I make a conjunction of the last postings (by Volker,Daniel and
Lionel) and suggest that we now close the debate? Perhaps at my age
(almost 75) I belong to the generation that believes in the value of
respect, decency and tolerance. I was simply disappointed that a man
like Zvi, who extended the hand of friendship to everyone that he met,
should have his legacy misused whatever the justice and passion attached
to a particular issue might be.
