<< Life Under Occupation: >> Let's suppose that you were living next to the Palestinians, and you were being attacked repeatedly from the West Bank, overlooking your family and country. Let's say that you were attacked four times by the combined Arab nations, who wanted to destroy your country. Would you take over the West Bank, after the fourth war waged against you, or would you continue to allow the Palestinians to attack your families day and night?

Life under occupation sounds awful. Don't you wish there had been a peace agreement last summer?

I attended a speech by a prominent American Rabbi who is living in Israel now. He is well known for his good relations with his Arab neighbors and extending free medical services to them. He said that the occupation is a terrible thing, but when the other side doesn't want to live in peace with Jews, being occupier is better than being occupied by PA.

To the Editor: Thomas L. Friedman, speaking as President Bush, tells Prime Minister Ariel Sharon: "We're fighting for our self-defense," and I need you "to postpone your war now" (column, Oct. 23). Postpone? Israel's war started a year before America's. Today, when I go to work, I will worry that my bus will be attacked or that I will be blown up on a street corner. I wonder whether I should really take our new daughter to the doctor in Jerusalem. Three friends of mine were shot and killed on the road. Should my government sit by so America can fight its war, but we cannot fight ours? BARRY LYNN Efrat, West Bank, Oct. 23, 2001 nytimes.com
