Swiss in WWII

I must protest in the strongest terms Lucy Komisar’s Opinion piece, “Some Poetic Justice for Swiss Bankers” (Feb. 22). Aside from being poorly informed, the venomous tone of Komisar’s article reveals a shocking lack of balance, fairness or accuracy.

This piece makes no mention at all of Switzerland’s major effort to reappraise its history and to right whatever wrongs actually occurred during and after World War II. Whatever her motivation for this attack on Switzerland, Komisar is clearly not interested in justice--poetic or otherwise.
