Jews have been in Egypt since Biblical times, and Alexandria had once been, at least partially, a Jewish city.
Let us not suffer from a national amnesia that causes us to forget who and what we are.
The fact is, that with the creation of the Jewish state in 1948, hundreds of thousands of Jews fled Arab countries, almost all of whom left behind all their property for which compensation was never paid.
I know that elections must be limited only to those who understand that the Arabs are the deadly enemy of the Jewish state, who would bring on us a slow Auschwitz - not with gas, but with knives and hatchets.
It is incumbent upon us to understand our greatness and believe in it so that we do not cheapen and profane ourselves.
One of the great problems with Americans is that - being a decent people - they assume that everyone else is equally decent.
For so long as the Jew has even one ally, he will be convinced - in his smallness of mind - that his salvation came from that ally. It is only when he is alone - against all of his own efforts and frantic attempts - that he will, through no choice, be compelled to turn to G-d.
I see all this and know that if we are to save the Jewish state and its three-and-a-half million Jews from terrible horrors, we must rise up and demand a fundamental change in the very system of government.
The difference is that if we turn from the Gentile first, we will have the Almighty as the immediate staff and our comfort. If not, we will have neither the Gentile nor, for a terrible stage, the Almighty.
Above all, it is not decency or goodness of gentleness that impresses the Middle East, but strength.
The observant Jew has his own sense of values. Torah Judaism is his blueprint for this life, his target for existence.
There is the illusion of the world and the reality of the Torah.
