I appreciate your note. And yes, I comprehend what you mean about having a military force based on scalpels and not sledgehammers, using personal discipline to strike hard but to strike with focus. I hope I was not offensive in my reference to a “furious” IDF soldier. It was meant as a compliment.

I don't think anyone who hasn't lived in Israel for an extended period of time can fully comprehend what it means to be a country composed of democratic and Western-oriented people living in a thin sliver of land smaller than all but the smallest of American states, and surrounded by a growing mass of people in surrounding countries who are absolutely committed to denying the right of Israel even to exist.

May G-d bless you. You very clearly need all the blessing you can get.

No offense whatsoever, I go with the flow...

Israel is about the size of New Jersey, no bigger than that!!

We’re small, compact and moral.

They want to negotiate what little land we have away to the PLO...
