Israel needs leaders that are strong enough to stand up for Israel , always. April 2010
Reader comment on item: When Israel Stood Up to Washington [in 1981]
Submitted by Phil Greend (Canada), Apr 6, 2010 at 23:47
With so many people against Israel, there is a need for strong leaders.
Sadly some of the people who are "against" Israel are countries that should be true allies.
Death constantly stalks Israel and the Jews.
Israel can not be weak or even seen as weak, if it is to survive.
