news from family in north of israel



News From Family In The North of Israel

I heard from a cousin in Israel after Shabbat. As of then nobody in

our family was hurt. My cousin's wife has family in the north. Two of

her brothers live on the Lebanese border. A Katyusha landed not far

from their moshav. She has two nieces in Mizpe Hila and a third

brother in Haifa. One cousin lives with her family in Haifa as well.

Since receiving this news nine people were killed in Haifa as Katyusha

rockets slammed into the city again. Hizbullah also hit Acre, Kiryat

Haim, Naharayim, Kibbutz Sa'ar, Kfar Maimon and Nahariya. An

additional 25 people were injured as Hizbullah continues to target

Israeli civilian population centers.

My cousin added:

We hope Zahal will be given the time to do enough work before the

so called liberal democratic justice seeking world will interfere.

I hope that eventually some sense will come to them and they will

know who we are facing and figure when their time will come to face

another act of terror on their liberal righteous countries.

I couldn't agree more.

To be honest I am filled with rage, not only at Hizbullah but at the

international press and those in the international community who

enable these attacks through their support of the terrorists and their

demonization of Israel. I hope Prime Minister Olmert does something no

Israeli Prime Minister has done since Yitzhak Shamir: resist and

ignore international pressure even when there are consequences, both

in terms of financial hardship and damaged international relations.

Israel shouldn't restrain itself at all in insuring that neither

Hizbullah nor Hamas can fire rockets into Israeli cities and towns in

the future. The first obligation of any government is to protect its

citizens. If France or Russia or anyone else fails to understand that

applies to Israel as much as anyone else, well... too bad.
