TRANSLATION:

"You're full of money and guns and our preference is for you to simply KEEP DOING IT (for us)."

It's insulting.

Agreed. If our blood and treasure aren’t enough for you contribute some of your own. It’s your neighborhood, not ours, and you should pay first.

“It’s insulting. “

Maybe.

But it’s true too.

Nothing was accomplished except to assuage the emotions of the sensitive western population of do-gooders.

I think that a ten minute Berlitz course in Hebrew makes for poor translating skills. Stick to Japanese.

As for my translation, it’s simple. This strike didn’t do the job of degrading Syria’s chemical arsenal.

Facts are facts. If the facts insult you, don’t blame the messenger.

As for what to do, that’s up to Trump, not Israeli intelligence. He violated his own doctrine in announcing his move in advance. Does that mean he should violate it further and punch the tar baby with his free hand as well? Or unstick his stuck hand and call it quits.

Maybe Macron has it right. International community “honor” has been “upheld,” whoopdeedoo. End of story for now.

I wrote the same before I read your astute post.

You would prefer them to lie to us?

The raid blew up a lot of stuff. A lot of unimportant stuff.
