Arrogance, Silence, and the Saudi Threat

Until then, don’t listen too much to what others say. Our future is in our hands. We are, for the first time in 2,000 years, finally finally in control of our destiny. Years ago, an Israeli general stood in Warsaw, at a memorial to the Warsaw Ghetto fighters and said, “We’ve come, but we came 60 years too late.”

No one will say that about Iran; no one will stand over the ruins of what was Israel and say they came too late to help. We will help ourselves.

No, the US will not be told in advance of our attack.

Yes, we will attack if we believe we must.

No, we are not going to let the Iranians stop us and, by extension, we thank the Saudis for their warning…silly men who don’t even let their women drive.

There is one great truth that all Israelis know – Israel will do what Israel must to survive.

With faces to the ground they will prostrate themselves to you; they will lick the dust of your feet. Then you will know that I am HaShem, and those who put their hopes in Me shall not be ashamed." Enough said.

The Egyptians have never proven themselves to be particularly open or honest in their dealings with Israel. At least four wars have been fought between our countries. Peace is a fragile thing that must be nurtured. It must be built on honest dealings and trust. Moving tanks and anti-aircraft missiles violates not only the agreement, but the trust as well.

We would have three minutes if an attack came from Lebanon. Three minutes to get to shelter – and worry about where everyone else is and if they got to shelter in time. That’s if the missiles come from Lebanon. I don’t know how much time we’d have if the attack came from Syria or Iran…more, less, who knows.

Can you understand the concept that a young mother was happy that her son now had a gas mask? When you can, you’ll understand what it is to be Israeli – at least in part.

I wonder if anyone in the Olympics has thought of the reality that people in Israel’s south live with every day.

According to the Israeli government, the quick actions last night of Israel’s soldiers prevented a greater tragedy from happening.

So, here’s how it goes, according to the twisted logic of the other side.
