Our incoherent foreign policy is nowhere better illustrated than the Middle East.

Current dithering and confusion virtually guarantees a war, a war for Israel’s very survival. Alexander Maistrovoy, in an excellent article, provides this dismal conclusion:

The next Holocaust will cease to be an abstraction and become a reality.

Israel will be left with only two options: to die without a fight or to be lost, having destroyed the enemies. The option of falling victim to genocide or the “Option of Samson”. Zapatero and Obama believe that Israel will choose the first one. Considering the tragic and painful history of Jews, from Maccabeus and Jerusalem ’s zealots to the Warsaw ghetto and the Six-day war, I would not hurry up with conclusions. And in this case there will be no outside observers.
