Amos Oz

"Renowned Israeli author Amos Oz on Monday scathingly criticized Labor Chairman and Defense Minister Ehud Barak for inaction in the face of settler violence. "What kind of leader is he who allowed the hill top youth to wreak havoc on Arabs and Israel Defense Forces soldiers?" Oz asked, referring to settler youths who commit acts of violence or vandalism against Palestinians or their property". Amos Oz's infrequent and mild criticisms of Zionist crimes are comparable to sombody whispering complaints about the Nazi holocaust during WWII.
