Job cuts imminent at UA

Finley column irresponsible, maudlin

Ryan Finley's column, "The Sound of Silence" (Sept. 24), made reference to "the sound of Palestinian children celebrating America's tragedy." This is a poor choice of words. We don't understand the entire Palestinian situation, just as they might not have understood the entire terrorist attack. Maybe their information was incomplete; maybe they were led to celebrate by other factors...
