Why Israel Must Be Prepared to Strike Iran

The US Press seems more and more sympathetic to Islamic nations and less and less patient with Israel.  Some wonder why Israel is threatening to strike Iran's nuclear facilities.  I ran across this quote from the current prime minister of Israel that clarifies the issue from the standpoint of the Jewish people.  As late as 1939 or 1940 the world's leaders did not want to believe that Hitler intended to take over the world or destroy the Jewish people.  they thought he could be managed.  Here is what Mr. Netanyahu said:

   

“Seventy-five years ago, the leading powers in the world put their heads in the sand,” Mr. Netanyahu said then. “Untold millions died in the war that followed. Ultimately, two of history’s greatest leaders helped turn the tide. Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Winston Churchill helped save the world. But they were too late to save six million of my own people. The future of the Jewish state can never depend on the good will of even the greatest of men.
