Thank goodness for those who do think like Sharon! But to equate our administration’s leaders with a thug and murderer is beyond the pale. He ought to dwell on the fact that if he were a citizen of any one of the dictatorships that now threaten Israel and he equated one of its leaders with a common criminal he probably would soon find himself headless.

The world, with all its technological improvement, has not changed in its psyche. Anti-Semitism still walks much of the land, a seething venom under a facade of racial acceptance and equality. Three things are certain: death, taxes and anti-Semitism.

The ovens, grown cold over the last sixty years, are there, waiting for a spark to be fired up. The only thing in this regard that is different now from then, is that now there is a country that Jews can turn to, that righteous countries can morally and practically support, a Jewish country that even if it were abandoned by the whole world could defend itself and be a haven for all Jews.

If the unhappy day ever comes when Israel is deserted by the rest of the world, Mr. Soros should understand that passing as a non-Jew, as he did to survive World War II, will not help. The ovens did not distinguish between rich or poor. Nor should all of Soros’s money give him a “pass” when it comes to public repudiation. You can put a pile of cash upon a donkey’s back, but underneath it he is still a donkey.
