Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu has a
track record of acting carefully when it comes to military action. Yet, he now
seems to have totally lost it:
It has been made public that Netanyahu
has offered the defence portfolio to one of his arch rivals, a man he despises
and who despises him: Avigdor Liebermann. Lieberman is a dangerous ultra right-winger
who in the past has suggested bombing the Aswan dam, he calls for death penalty
to those he defines as terrorists and refers to Israelis who hold a mirror to Israel’s
outrages as traitors.
Barak, a former prime minister of Israel,
has arrogantly once said that Israel was like a villa in the jungle. It was
arrogant at the time and it is now becoming evidently absurd. Israel is part of
the jungle, it has now reached the level of Turkey and Egypt, where a military
coup may be the more civilised option for the country.
A day of mourning for the Jewish people.
Hi David
ReplyDeleteWell said! It is funny, I thought about it yesterday as well, and realized it is the first time I find it not only dangerous but also reasonable. Absurdity is terrifying.
thank you so much for your blogs - and yes you are absolutely right - but in this confusing world at the moment the world press doesn't know where to look first.... We are all sitting there like a 'Kaninchen vor der Schlange'.
