Dear Arthur: I agree that Israel should not develop close ties to China. China's bad human rights record means that being close to such a nation gives others a negative impression of your own nation. Sincerely, Ernest Evans PS: As far as US relations with Israel, God promised Abraham that He would "bless them that bless thee." America's great success in its centuries of existence has been due in no small part to the fact that we have allowed our domestic Jewish population a degree of tolerance and acceptance that is virtually unknown in world history, and to the fact that internationally we have been firm in our insistence on Israel's right to exist.
