Israel needs the unconditional surrender of Hamas (“Is Israel overreacting?” Web, Oct. 31). Let’s not forget who started this war and why. The depraved actions of Hamas in invading Israel are very similar to those of the Nazis during World War II. They call for the  complete destruction of Hamas and its inability to do more horrible damage in the future. But that can only occur through an unconditional surrender.

This should be followed by war crime trials similar to the Nuremberg Trials that followed the end of World War II. The execution of Hamas leaders and terrorists will serve justice.
