Dear President Ahmadinejad...
(Jerusalem Post) Gerald Steinberg - If Israeli President Moshe Katsav were to send a letter to the president of Iran, this is what he might write: Unless we begin to communicate directly, with civility and mutual respect, we will soon be in a conflict which will cause unimaginable destruction. As Israelis listen to your rhetoric and watch your actions, we see many of the danger signals that have preceded the catastrophic wars that have been waged against us. We have no choice but to consider the day when these words threatening our annihilation can be backed by the missiles and nuclear weapons you are acquiring. If you are unaware of the trauma resulting from our failure in 1973 to preempt the Egyptian and Syrian attacks, can you know how our leaders will act when faced with growing threats of destruction from Iran? Let us communicate, Mr. President. Failure to do so could lead to unilateral action.
