My Nation and Your Nation

April 2004

Remarks made before the Tzevet IDF Reception and Solidarity Convention

February 18, 2004, to 1,800 Tzevet Members in Tel Aviv Israel.

 

Two years ago, you and I met and talked together about the murder on September 11, 2001, of 3,000 people in my Nation. Much has gone on since that time.

The Anti-Semitism of the 1930s has now returned to the European continent, and the Jew Haters have declared Israel to be a major threat to world stability—the rationale for hate.

To their own political and economic purposes, Chirac, Schroeder and Putin have, by their actions as opposed to their words, accepted and condoned both Jew Hatred and Anti-Semitism on the Continent.

For many years, numerous resolutions, sanctions and other actions of the United Nations have condemned Iraqi intransigence on so-called weapons of mass destruction.

Saddam Hussein visualized himself as a new Saladin and told the world that none of the weapons which he had used on his own people were in his arsenal; but he wasn’t going to allow the world to verify his words by unfettered inspections of his country.

The United States, England and others said that now was the time to test the truth of his words. The bluff was called. Saddam fell. The mask was torn off, and the real enemy appeared. These Terrorists are know by all as the Saudi Al Quaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Red Army or whatever name they may choose to use for senseless murder.

The stateless Militant Terrorists exist through State-subsidized financial and other support dispensing fear and self-interest throughout the world. Murder is their solution, and destabilization is their method.

Chirac, Schroeder and Putin opposed the Coalition by condemning Israel to a Road Map to Oblivion. My President—to the dismay of our Arab moderates and the Continent—called for democracy in the Middle East. It is something which you have had and practiced for over 50 years of your existence.

While the Real Enemy murders Coalition soldiers and Iraqi civilians on a daily basis, surveys, polls, the Internet, TV and media once more make the Victim to be the Victor. So, as the song says, it’s you and me against the world. Technology can no longer cloud the reality of the Militant Hate, whether it be in Jerusalem, Bali, or elsewhere where civilians die without reason.

My Nation and your Nation have the powers to reduce the Militant Terrorist and to reduce public fear and death.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because the Old Order is out and must be replaced by a new recognition that death by hate must be eliminated.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because morality in itself is no defense against the amorality of the Militant. Morality is the one thing which allows you and me to replace fear with purpose.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because we recognize that children can no longer be used to front the new Children’s Crusade of Suicide.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because of the realization that we mean what we say, and that has brought about a change in Libya, Iran, probable debt reduction by Chirac, Schroeder and Putin, possible Pakistan/India and Cyprus resolutions and other acknowledgements.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because we are right, and there shall be no retreat from our goals of universal stability.

The American poet, Robert Frost, spoke of diverging roads and taking the one least traveled by and thus making a difference. My Nation and your Nation shall not be deterred from making that difference.

We must succeed; there can be no maybe. It is not merely good vs. bad; but the quality of life in this world which will disappear and end up in the hands of the Murderers.

My Nation and your Nation will succeed because, if we don’t, the world shall face an uncontrolled destruction, anarchy and annihilation.

Shalom!!!
