The Israeli pattern is to simply ACT with such profoundly little fanfare before the act that in retrospect the silence seems DEAFENING.
Indeed in many cases, afterwards again the same thing —no words or gloating.
Instead, here we hear of all these threats and teeth-gnashing. It’s like they’re coming to terms with their own agony over NOT being able to act.
Again, for all my trigger itching yearning, I feel more certain than ever that our governments are simply clicking their red-diamond heels, shrieking TheresNoPlaceLikeHome, somehow hoping to WILL all this nastiness away.
Over the past two years I cannot count the number of times that I felt sure —SURE— that something was surely about to happen to Iran.
NOPE..!!!
The only thing that gives me a glimmer of hope that Israel actually WILL take action is the man at the top over there......Ben Netanyahu. I think HE has the cahones to do it, if he isn’t stymied by all the bleeding heart handwringers and hankie twisters he has to SERVE WITH in the Israeli Gubmint.
