Not in my name

MARLBORO-I would like to thank Rep. Becca Balint for her commentary in the Reformer on Sept. 19, taking a stand against genocide in Israel.

I appreciate her voicing what so many of us know to be true. As someone who has supported the dream of Israel as a free democracy, a homeland for Jews after so many countries turned the survivors of the Holocaust away, it pains me that I can no longer support Israel in its current form.

I will not be placated by biased publications such as the for-profit Free Press into believing the propaganda spewed by Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his supporters.
