So if Mexico launches a few missiles at Los Angeles and Houston every day for ten years, we should just take it? I mean common, a war over a few missiles? They only killed a few civilians anyway, why not just wait it out and see if they run out of missiles?
Mexico has been invading Los Angeles and Houston everyday for well over 10 years and we’ve done nothing about it. Regardless of that, your argument doesn’t address the point I made even a little bit. A.) We’re talking about Israel’s situation here, not ours and B.) Israel already exists in a perpetual state of war against this enemy and C.)I didn’t say they should turn the other cheak, I was simply suggesting that blindly, angrily, and hastily stumbling into a major war in response to an attack has a way of leading to sub-optimal outcomes and that it is far more wise to thoughtfully enter the war so as to “go in” when and how it is most favorable for you and least favorable for your enemy. All of this I’m quite sure the Israelis are aware of already.
