A Worldwide Need to Get REAL

It is wrong to stand by and do nothing.

In fact, it’s evil.

One of my favorite quotes is this one: 

“All that is required for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.”
– Edmund Burke

And this one:

“The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.”
— Albert Einstein

America and the rest of the world refused to give REAL help to Israel when she was threatened with destruction. Because of that, we got (among other things) Palestinian terrorism.

A Few Proverbs

A friend of mine sent this around a few days ago, and I thought that y’all would like to see them too!

I Just Don’t Want to Know

Nuclear ambiguity is interesting.

It allows you a lot of flexibility in regards to Sun Tzu’s most famous admonition:

All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near. 

- Sun Tzu, The Art of War

In terms of nuclear weapons, Israel sits at the dividing line. She seems both far AND near – weak and, at the same time, strong.

We are going to do nothing.

I don’t need to sit in on any cabinet meetings. I don’t need to look at the directives to the CIA or MI6. I don’t need to see the order of battle for NATO troop deployment.

I just KNOW.

How do I know? Well, I live in a country, Israel, that must live every day with the results of what other countries refuse to do.

Here’s my favorite quote on this subject:
