Time to Stop Vacillating

Letter to the Editors

To the editors:

Your editorial (“Bestowing An Undue Honor,” Nov. 21) was a compelling and sensible refutation of the reborn invitation to poet Tom Paulin. Claims that Paulin’s remarks, advocating violence and murder against Israelis, were misconstrued or taken out of context are unpersuasive. Let’s hear Paulin say, without ambiguity or wiggle-wobble, what he thinks should be done to bring peace to the Middle East.
