Letter from Richard Sherman to the NY Daily News in response to Steven Davies' "Zinophobic rant", March 25, 2026

Dear Editor,

Steven Davies' Zionophobic rant against the Jewish people of Israel is as myopic as someone describing the war in the Pacific and never mentioning Pearl Harbor. ("Confusing Outrage with Hate Deserves No Sympathy") Apparently, as is the case with many Jews who have internalized jew hatred, Mr Davies is psychologically unable to describe the fact that on 10/7 6000 koranic sociopaths murdered, raped, beheaded, eviscerated, disemboweled, cut off breasts and sliced open vaginas of 1200 Jewish men, women, boys, girls, infants, newborns and Holocaust survivors.

Mr. Davis is psychologically unable to embrace the concept of Jewish self defense as made clear in the Jewish Bible and the Talmud: there is no Biblical prohibition for Jews against killing, only a Biblical prohibition against murder. An obvious clarion call for Jewish self defense. The Talmud in Sanhedrin 72A commands every jew: when someone comes to kill you, rise up and kill him first.

Without Jewish self defense, on 10/7 those thousands of  Islamic sociopaths would have committed the genocide of the millions of Jews in Israel. As a Zionophobe who does not believe in Jewish self defense as his letter makes clear,  that is a result that Mr.Davies devoutly wishes for.

Richard Sherman, Florida
