SIR - As a Muslim of 38 years, since birth, may I respond to the letter from M Long (T&A, August 25).

He has not read my letters in the newspaper (two in June, one in July) in support of Israel. In support of "peace" the world's nations should listen to America and Israel! Forget the Geneva Convention, the holiday' camps in Cuba!

"Live in peace or we'll kill you" (words of Bush and Sharon in 2003).

I hope this is one Muslim person who will have the right to reply to M Long's letter.
