Ethnic cleansing

Sir,

—It would appear that my plea for an objective and rationalapproach to the possibility of ethnic cleansing in 1920s Ireland fellon deaf ears with Mr Donal Kennedy (letters, July/August 2008). I findhis totally unjustified and unwarranted attempt to claim my views asakin to Nazi racist ideology deeply offensive. I did findencouragement, however, in that he can disagree with me and live inLondon while I can disagree with him and live in Cork. From smallacorns . . .

—Yours etc.,
