Arrogance

A quite good analysis by Amal Saad-Ghorayeb, assistant professor of political science at the Lebanese-America University, on the last crisis on the middle east.


Act 1: Ghaza, 1 (one) soldier is captured. Israel’s reaction is demolishing homes, killing and imprisoning hundreds of civilians.

Act 2: A couple of soldiers are captured by Hezbollah. Israel’s reaction is demolishing airports, homes, roads, and killings civilians.

Targetting civilians and still claiming fighting terrorism.

How beautiful!

Hi Slix,

Israel is behaving like a spoiled kid who wants to get rid of his toys (F16s, all kinds of weapons, etc.) in order to get new ones.

Israel’s policy has been a disaster from the outset, because it has always been based on force. As a result, Israel didn’t earn but disrespect and wrath from all its neighbors. Israel should know that its interests lie in winning the trust and the respect from its neighboring countries. Because, the fact is, these neighbors will stay there no matter what Israel does. And Force-based policy will ultimately fail.
