I ask the mayors and other politicians to speak out against Hamas. I have my children, grandchildren, nephew and cousins living in Israel. Silence is not golden. Iran orchestrated this. Israel is at war!
American Jews must support Israel and buy Israel Bonds and send funds for ambulances, etc. We need America to stand by Israel.
My students ask me, “Can the Holocaust happen again?” My answer is a definite yes. A number of hydrogen bombs thrown at Israel by its enemies would annihilate the Israeli population. One is naïve to believe that antisemitism does not exist throughout the world. If we have learned anything from the Shoah, it is that it is possible for a madman to arise who wants to annihilate the Jewish people. Never fool yourself into believing that you are safe anywhere. We must always be alert and fight against prejudice wherever it may exist. We will and must win this war. We must be united as one. Now is the time to fight, not blame leadership for not being prepared. That will come later.
