And the Yanks .... they are not under direct attack, yet their drones have been active in Pakistan. And if there is another 9-11, just watch the ordnance fly. The Israelis respond to being attacked in a way that other democracies wish they could. No whining ... no appeals to the International Community ... just scramble the jets and take care of business.
Sure, innocents die ... Dresden ... Hiroshima ... Leningrad ... Nanking ... too many to mention. That's what happens in wars. Just about every country has blood on its hands. And it's unfair to target the Israelis for doing what every nation would do, given enough provocation. Unfortunately, anti-semitism is alive and well in the world. And the Jews have learned to depend on themselves. I'm still kinda proud that my country supports them.
