Israel and The Sin of Expulsion

Heart-Rending Complete Speech of Caroline Glick

Excerpts:

“One of the most fundamental lessons we learned growing up in our parents’ house was the difference between reality and fantasy.”

“As children, the distinction seemed obvious to us. But apparently, the difference between the two is a lot less easy to discern than it would seem.”

“This must be the case because the fact of the matter is that today, for the second time in 12 years, a government of Israel — being led by an elderly politician with a distant past as a war hero — is basing its policies on fantasy rather than reality.” read more
