USS Liberty $10,000 Reward---STILL no takers

That's why the Israelis have always fought against insane odds and won. I
don't think any US forces have ever pulled off victories in circumstances at
all similar to what the Israelis have faced time and again.

I used to know an Israeli commando ('72' war) in the late 80's. One time,
some typical american was hassling him and calling him jew-boy. At first,
the guy didn't even realize he was being insulted, but after he did it was a
one punch fight. He literally punched the guy once and he was out. He often
told me he didn't think much of the US military: i.e. that they always
fought with all the advantages (men, material and weapons) so how could they
lose while Israel was always outgunned and outnumbered.

There's a lot to dislike about the way the Israelis do things, but as I
see it the Arabs can afford to lose every war (as they have) and the
oil-hungry west will ensure that they survive the peace (as they have).
But if the Israelis lose just once, they're dead. What would be your
strategy if you ran Israel?

If we must pick a friend between the Muslims and the Jews the choice is
easy. For me.
