And so, these comments by<\/strong> Moshe Feiglin<\/strong><\/a> beare repeating as they best express the Israeli political governing mindset;<\/strong><\/p>\n

If Israel cannot define a real goal for this war, it cannot win. All the IDF’s professionalism and the arduous training with which the new Chief of Staff has equipped the army are ineffective if Israel’s leaders cannot define the goal of the fighting. He who cannot define the goal cannot win. And if you can’t win – it is best not to start fighting. <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The inconclusive results of Operation Cast Lead, with Israel’s unilateral ceasefire under-fire, are a predictable product of Israel’s morally and spiritually corrupt and bankrupt political governance and regime. When they come to investigate this war, the results can’t be buck-passed to the IDF and the IDF Chief of Staff. The grave responsibility for further loss of Jewish lives and property rests squarely with the regime. MB<\/strong><\/p>\n
