===================================

Harvard Law Professor Alan M. Dershowitz said:

“We [Jews] need not apologize about our successes.
We earned them, the hard way.

We need not be apologetic or defensive about our power in America.
For we have seen what can, and will, happen if we abdicate that power.

Our history as a people demonstrates that
we need more power than others to survive.
That is one of the important lessons to be learned
from thousands of years of anti-Jewish bigotry.

I am reminded of it every time I open one of my poison-pen letters.
We are not the Swiss and our history is not one of being left alone.
It is one of constant victimization and repression.
Without power – indeed, without power disproportional
to our numbers – we continue to be victimized.
We should strive to enhance our power on every front.”
