Great Interview Response by Benjamin Natanyahu [vanity]
me ^ | 8/26/06 | freedom44

Posted on 08/26/2006 5:56:36 PM PDT by freedom44

From British Television in the Morning.

The interviewer asked him: "How come so many more Lebanese have been killed in this conflict than Israelis?"

Natanyahu: "Are you sure that you want to start asking in that direction?"

Interviewer: Why not?

Natanyahu: "Because in World War II more Germans were killed than British and Americans combined, but there is no doubt in anyone's mind that the war was caused by Germany's aggression. And in response to the German blitz on London, the British wiped out the entire city of Dresden, burning to death more German civilians than the number of people killed in Hiroshima.

Moreover, I could remind you that in 1944, when the R.A.F. tried to bomb the Gestapo Headquarters in Copenhagen, some of the bombs missed their target and fell on a Danish children's hospital, killing 83 little children .

Perhaps you have another question?

I put this alongside Rummy's "My goodness!" response to Hillary Clinton.

Zing!!!! I'd love to see him and Pat Buchanan in a 1-on-1 debate. Bibi would annihilate him.

Bibi is one of my favorite Politicians in the world. Great answer, too bad the media can't handle the truth.

There's no point to having a statesman debate a crackpot.

Fantastic interview. Wish he can be Senator from New York, at least he is on our side.

No, not really. But it would be high-comedy to actually see some of the Brigadiers' heads explode as their hero was systematically torn to shreds verbally. After that, we can put Netanyahu up against Howie Dean or The Wicked Witch of the West Wing. Hell, let's sign him up for a tour! ;^)

The time is coming when people will not endure sound doctrine, I guess that time is now. How can Israelis' not have elected this man? How can Jews not have chosen Jesus as their Saviour? OOPS! Oh well, GO BIBI!!!!!!

Hell, since Tom Delay resigned, he'd be the most pro-American, pro-Israel pol we'd have. If the Israelis don't want him, I'd say sign him up as a consultant with the RNC to teach the House, but especially Senate members what a spine looks like.

The problem remains that far too many don't consider Israel's defense legit and don't equate it to a fight for survival of a nation. It's the same crowd that think that each terror incident is a criminal offense with no relation to any other event or organization or state.

Also far too many don't know history and can't relate tales of WW II to today. They just think: War is bad. Civilians should never be killed under any circumstances and those who kill civilians are therefore terrorists themselves. No if, ands or buts.
