Summary:Sir, - I agree with I. Kemp that this is the time to "clean house" ("Start from scratch," Letters, May 13). However, I cannot see the members of the current coalition - even after the damning Winograd Report - agreeing to something that will make them personally accountable. As things are, the PM can overcome any no- confidence motion by offering a minority party a few hundred million shekels of public money for some pet project. Sir, - Larry Derfner is still rattling an empty cage. "Until Bush got in," he declares, "the White House was always trying to draw Israel and its enemies together, not keep them apart" ("Bush and his good intentions," May 13). Sir, - I wonder, has Isaac Brooks ("Muslims are moral," Letters, May 10) read the book Infidel, by Ayaan Hirsi Ali? I have. It truly opened my eyes, and the eyes of the many women I lent it to and keep lending it to, so I stand by Caroline Glick's observation in "Hirsi Ali's challenge to humanity" (May 8): "In brutalizing Muslim women, Muslim religious leaders and religious adherents justify their evil deeds by quoting verses from the Koran which sanction their violent and brutal behavior."
