To the Editor:
Re "Christian group launches fight against U.N. vote on Palestinian state": There comes a time when those who truly want peace must recognize the latent separatism that is the product of religion. Nationalism is the willful blindness toward hate crimes committed by one’s country, and morality is very much independent of faith. It would benefit all people for Israel to end its racist campaign against Palestine.
