Dear Mr. Atzmon, I just read "The Wandering Who."  Your book is revolutionary in the most positive sense.  As a "second category Jew", one who considers himself to be a human being who happens to have a Jewish background, I have come to accept your positions about Zionism and Jewish identity politics (of the right and the left) without ever having read your work until now.  Of course, I could not have articulated these positions nearly as well as you have and for that I thank you.  As for those who attack you viciously, on all parts of the political spectrum, it merely demonstrates their neurosis, although I am certain you do not need me to tell you this.
