A ‘less nuanced approach’
In genuflecting for a “more nuanced perspective” by the Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle, letter writer Maya Fischhoff conveniently fails to mention that the “war on Gaza” began on Oct. 7, when an existing cease-fire was broken by a surprise attack (remember Pearl Harbor?) by Hamas and hundreds of its Gazan civilian willing executioners; 1,200 Jews were murdered, raped, beheaded, eviscerated, disemboweled and machine-gunned as occurred at Babi Yar, and some 250 Jews were kidnapped and then murdered or placed in Auschwitz-like conditions ( “Looking for a more nuanced perspective,” Feb. 16).
While Ms. Fischhoff may prefer the more nuanced perspective of The New York Times, which buried the Holocaust, the Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle fortunately and courageously prefers to take a less nuanced approach when reporting about the pure evil represented by Hamas and every one of its maniacal supporters.
