    My dear Amy Tuteur, MD,

    Imagine if the Israelis treated Palestinians like human beings.

    Imagine if Israel emulated Humanist Judaism rather than German Nazism.

    Imagine if what was being done to the Palestinians was being done to you and yours.

    Imagine if the Golden Rule meant something to psychopaths.
