The above article is by an Israeli, Solly Ganor, who upon encountering an Arab
construction boss working on a villa near him, took the occasion to draw him
out. He discovered he was a Christian Arab, a former teacher -- someone highly
educated and very intelligent. This Arab-Christian teacher offered his views on
Israel, America, and Israel’s coming war with Hezbollah and perhaps Syria and
Iran. He believes Israel bungled the war against Hezbollah and America bungled
the war against Iraq. As a consequence, Persian militants smell blood in the
water. Many in the region now think they can defeat not only Israel but
America. The teacher thinks these militants are making the same mistake that
Hitler made prior to World War Two, mistaking Western mildness for weakness,
but the West is also making a mistake. They learned nothing from Hitler and
World War Two. They won't take action now; just as they wouldn't take it in
Hitler's early days and so they shall once again have to fight a very bloody
war.
As to how creditable this teacher is, I was impressed until he told Ganor he
was getting out of the region before the trouble started. No, not that.
That’s probably smart, but he plans to move to Canada. Canada?
