An Israeli Father’s Expression of Pride
[Editor’s note: The following expression of an Israeli father’s pride in his family, country and leader, and his people was captured by Israeli radio host Danny Seaman, who has a long history of involvement in defending all these against anti-Israel media bias.]
“I am writing this as I go back and forth with my wife and younger boys to our neighborhood bomb shelter. The sirens have become the rhythm of our days and yet in this strange and difficult moment it is not fear that I feel but pride. Pride in our soldiers, one of whom is my son, who was called up for the fifth time this past year. Pride in our people, who carry on with their daily routine, keeping sane while madness is spinning around us. And yes pride in our prime minister, who has the clarity and courage to make this miracle happen, to strike Iran, to change the course of history. And to restore something essential that we had lost.”
