Once I was told that they brought with them exactly this "strategic thinking" that Israelis lack. If that so, where is it?

This is a good article. Thanks to him for opening an analysis. Israel is more than he knows. All of us are just able to understand a narrow reality. I want to call on him, to address the Arab societies, too, with respect, with intelligence, and with constructive intentions. We will find that the same concept can be applied to all nations to live in peace. A unified, secular, enlightened social order like the USA practices most of the times.

the early roots of Zionism by the masters that understood that Jewish strength was imperative to the survival of the Jewish people and the Jewsih State. Israel is now lead by the Ghetto Jew mentality...Please accept us! Please dont make a bad pogrom on us! We can take a little pogrom, we accept it....Just overturn our shelves and kill our animals, steal from us and kill one of our sons but then leave us alone for a while! BS! Be a mordern Jabotinsky! A Trumpledor! We will fight for our dignity! If they come for us, we will get up early and strike them first!

Thanks for telling it straight, professor.

Hi all, Here we go. Russia is going to place bomber in Cuba. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=080722180457.q0jlf4en&show_article=1 It is getting better every day in every way. We keep telling the Russians we are their friends. Yet we continue to plan and place missiles on their borders. They keep telling us this has them concerned. We continue to do to them what they did to us in 1962 in Cuba. When they moved into our hemisphere (Cuba) we went ballistic. Now we have moved into theirs. They keep warning us and we continue to ignore those warnings. These kinds of things fall under the heading of escalating tensions. Now they are going to reenter Cuba with Nuclear capable bombers. They are the equivalent of our B-1 Bombers. You have to ask your self when the fire under the kettle gets turned up at what point does it boil over and then what. Remember we went eyeball to eyeball with them in 1962 and they backed down. I'm sure they will back down on this one too. Listen to our tone and then listen to theirs. Why worry? I worry for Israel when the United States in blown back into the dark ages. I'm telling you we are gone. A wicked nation will not long survive. Mordechai I enjoy your articles. Even if we don't survive I hope you do.
