Shalom Pollack – THE DEAL

 The  "deal" is a tragedy.

Is this meant to protect our Nation?
If this is the strategy chosen to destroy our enemies we are in very
deep trouble.

When our enemy decides to kill us, all they do is abduct one of us and
the greatest army in the Middle East is paralyzed, powerless to
respond in a way that can lead to victory. Yes, we will spill their
blood and our own time and again, "round" after "round". That is
precisely what victory looks like for them. They celebrate it while we
sink ever deeper into despair.

Countries and people are not supposed to be run like a nuclear family. The interest and survival of an entire nation can not be decided by the understandable interests of individual citizens or a political campaign launched in some of their names.

This  is  a very black day  for Israel

Netanyahu helped bring us to this low point.
Today the same Left is using the same playbook as they did with the
Shalit debacle, The difference is that today we are in the middle of a
war that we can no longer  - win,  a war for which so many wonderful
soldiers gave their lives   -  in vain. They thought they were
fighting and sacrificing and not stopping until victory; damn the
personal costs.
This time we were going "all the way" they were assured.

The catastrophe of Netanyhu's Shalit ``deal"  consequently led to
thousands of Jews killed, and counting.
Everyone knew that would be the result. Still, the shameless,
post-Jewish elites pressured Bibi to do the "moral" thing. They
granted him their much sought-after approval in which he basked -  for
a few moments.

This country and people will continue to suffer pain,  self-doubt, and
shame until we get real Jewish leadership with a proud self-assured
backbone, and not politicians bereft of ideology, belief, faith, or
integrity.

The most important weapon a nation possesses in any conflict is the
sense of justice in its cause.
Indeed, do our leaders even know what that cause is?

Our many enemies near and far. are watching and  enjoying
And what they see whets their appetites.

Tough times are on the way.
