Presidential Election

Marvelous, simply marvelous, is the column by Rabbi Allen Freehling concerning Jesse Jackson, Jews, and “the ‘J’ problem” (Op-Ed Page, April 26).

The rabbi wisely and eloquently acknowledges that those involved cannot expect immediate unanimity on the issues, but should happily be “looking for open communication.” Perhaps the various factions in the Middle East could learn something from this approach. It seems all too obvious that our modern, shrinking world requires peaceful coexistence, even with those we despise.
