Summary:Sir, - Reading Ashley Perry's op-ed piece ("The best decision I've ever made," January 16) made me look up the quote from Robert Burns: "The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men/Gang aft agley/An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain/For promis'd joy!" Sir, - In the January 14 article "Romney is first of 2012's presidential hopefuls to visit," you quote an Al Jazeera reporter as saying: "...the US couldn't get Israel to make peace with the Palestinians..." It seems the more correct statement would have been that "...the US couldn't get the Palestinians to make peace with Israel." Sir, - Regarding the anniversary of Ariel Sharon's stroke, Susan Shaul ("Memories of Arik," Letters, January 6) writes that she has "difficulty forgetting the home I was forced out of [as part of the Gaza withdrawal]. People think that a house is just four walls, but we were forced out of homes, lives and livelihoods. That is hard to forget."
