An Open Letter to Gil Ronenby Phyllis Chesler http://www.phyllis-chesler.com/1059/gil-ronen Be the first of your friends to like this. Excerpt: Dear Gil: Shalom. I read your piece. While I agree with the "commonsense" aspect of what you are saying, I must respectfully and expertly disagree with your conclusions. First, we no longer live in the stone age and today, with one click, or with only minimum strength and maximum brain power, either a man or a woman can set off a bomb or prevent a bomb from going off. Second, armies today, including the IDF, run on intelligence and computer savvy as much as on brawn and sheer brute force. Women and men both excel in technology, intelligence and counterintelligence. Third, women are not necessarily more compassionate or more tender than men are. Like men, women are capable of cowardice and courage, of aggressively defending the status quo or of challenging it with great risk to themselves. | |||||
