In a small nation such as Israel calling up the
reserves puts a severe strain on the society as a
whole. It is not done for minor situations, and
because of the effect on the state’s economy, is
not done for very long.

I pray for Israel and our nation.

I stand emphatically corrected.

Let us all take comfort in the sense of security in which Israel has shown itself capable of defending itself.
