Maybe sounds stereotype, but reality shows the truth. But, do believe that the lack of self-respect on the part of 'Jewish' leadership of the State breeds contempt from the Arab mentality. Heeding the Torah by expelling the inhabitants within when State was founded would have prevented all the mess and gained respect from both the Arabs and the world.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-91016175727510994182013-09-22T07:52:00.965+03:002013-09-22T07:52:00.965+03:00If you doubt you can turn your back to someone tha...If you doubt you can turn your back to someone than you can't be friends with them.

I agree with Norman, but the reason this happened is that we are a people who want to believe that most people are good, and we <i>want</i> to trust others. It is hard for a Westerner (it should be easier for an Israeli) to understand the vicious, barbaric mentaliy of the Arab. It is culture shock of major proportions. So I also agree with you, Batya; "friendship" can only go so far...Lady-Lighthttp://www.lady-light.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-38990655410433127892013-09-22T06:21:48.350+03:002013-09-22T06:21:48.350+03:00amen, thanks Norman.amen, thanks Norman.Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-58001878759172239782013-09-22T06:11:36.871+03:002013-09-22T06:11:36.871+03:00Sgt.

Especially when dealing with a hateful and cruel people like the Arabs.<br /><br />Jews who let down their guard come to a sad end. We can all agree Sgt. Hazan didn't deserve to be murdered. He's the victim, after all! But that didn't excuse him from exercising common sense and being careful around Arabs.<br /><br />Arabs hate Jews and would kill them when they're given the opportunity. Going into an Arab town was asking for trouble. Had the young Jewish man used his head - he would still be alive today.<br /><br />Jews live in a murderous neighborhood. They need to safeguard their own lives and minimize their interaction with the enemy to the absolute minimum. Hopefully, Hazan's fate will serve as a lesson to the rest of the Jewish people that real peace with the Arabs is not in the cards any time soon and is not a license for Jewish recklessness in the face of danger.NormanFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03365459073293643108noreply@blogger.com
