Obama has so castrated the military with his "diversity" (a term that sickens me along with "tolerance") and his adherence to the homosexual agenda that a pragmatic, get-the-job done approach like that of General Yitzhak Pundak is nigh impossible nowadays. War is hell. Once identified, the enemy must be vanquished. A hero like General Pundak is needed in this era to obliterate the existential menace that is Islam.

And if there's anyone thinking that General Pundak is a sadist, read the whole article, including this portion:

Pundak, who was the governor of Gaza in the early 1970s, said that the credit that is usually given to Ariel Sharon for stopping Arab terror in Gaza in 1971 is mistaken. He said that Sharon was an unnecessarily cruel commander who once said at a meeting with officers that he would offer champagne to whoever killed an enemy fighter – and whoever brings him a wounded enemy "will drink soda."

He said: “I told him, 'You are not my commander, I am not coming to your meetings.'”

Armchair Liberals do not understand that tiny Israel (then population 600,000) was in a win and hold off Arab tide or face massacre (which the Arabs excel at). It was do or die, flush out hostile villages who were trying to annihlate the Jews or be mutilated (which the Arabs excel at).

In the 1948 war nobody expected Israel to win and she lost 6,000 fighters from a population of 600,000!

The Arabs were offered, time and time again a chance at compromise, reconciliation and peace - all of which were rejected (which the Arabs excel at). Now, they want us all to go back to the 1947 UN Partition Plan. They did not accept it then, and in reality, they do not accept it today. The Arabs excel at rejection and sticking their fingers in their rear ends.
