Letter to the editor: Re:Unhelpful move by Tammy MacIntosh August 14, 2024

"MacIntosh accuses Palestine activist Ramsey Zeid of being “on only one side,” yet her letter is also incredibly one-sided. By focusing exclusively on the actions of Hamas and ignoring Israel's military actions that has now killed 40,000 Palestinian civilians, she perpetuates a narrative that devalues Palestinian lives and dismisses their right to resist oppression. This selective empathy, which only acknowledges Israeli suffering while glossing over the far greater Palestinian suffering, is a form of anti-Palestinian racism."
