Israel's Pillar of Defense operation is now in ceasefire mode.
We are happy that the rockets and the violence have ended. Yet we know that the necessary victory was not achieved and that one day, whether in 6 days, 6 weeks or 6 months, the Hamas will start shooting rockets again at Israel, endangering our civilian population.
A majority of the Israeli population is extremely disappointed because they were hopeful that this time the Israeli government would do everything necessary to put a total end to the rocket fire that has lasted for 12 years.
On the good side, hopefully now there are more people in the world who now know that the Muslim terrorists in Gaza, including Hamas, are evil human rights abusers who, not only intentionally target innocent Israeli civilians, but also use their own civilians as human shields. It is just too bad that the western world doesn't demand that these terrorist networks be destroyed.
While we don't know exactly why Israel decided to agree to this ceasefire, without trying to obliterate the Hamas, we assume the following.
Hamas is really just a puppet organization of Iran to attack Israel, as Hizbullah is too. Even though the rockets from Hamas are devastating and kill innocent lives, the ultimate threat to Israel today remains a nuclear Iran. We therefore imagine that Israel, under the leadership of PM Bibi Netanyahu received certain assurances from the USA, and the western world, in the global effort to deny nuclear capability to Iran. To receive these assurances Israel had to agree to this ceasefire and allow Hamas to live another day and re-arm themselves for the next conflict.
Ultimately, we believe it is not fair that Israel not be allowed to destroy her enemies, especially when they are recognized around the world as terrorists. But, life is not fair and geo-politics is ugly.
We hope that our leaders can be trusted and ultimately we trust in the one above that everything will be ok.
In the meantime, we will continue to update you and keep you connected to Israel. In addition, we will continue to grow our facebook presence and our email list to better reach out to people worldwide with the truth about Israel and the Jewish people.
Thank you for your support.
