This article does not impress me as helpful. It sounds like “there are no real similarities between 10/7 and 9/11 but I’m going to list all the things I think we did wrong and then offer no possible solutions while I am at it.” I believe we just gifted Iran with a ton of money.

This article does not impress me as helpful. It sounds like “there are no real similarities between 10/7 and 9/11 but I’m going to list all the things I think we did wrong and then offer no possible solutions while I am at it.” I believe we just gifted Iran with a ton of money. Well, then we are culpable just as the decision to back away from strict regulation of Iran’s nuclear aims also makes us culpable. How about addressing that issue and expressing some genuine angst regarding what happened on 10/7? Americans and Israeli citizens are not as naive as this article suggests. Let’s go over this again: Israel’s enemies want to totally destroy her. Israel is surrounded by enemies. And, the enemies not only want to destroy the state of Israel, but incite hatred of Jews all over the world. And that hatred is growing, getting bolder and out in the open, and is now celebrated as a good thing in cities all over the world. This is a humanitarian and moral crisis the likes of which my generation and any younger than us have ever seen. While Israel works out their own response to the horrors of 10/7, we would do well here in America to take a genuine moral inventory. Where are we turning a blind eye to prejudice? Where are good people remaining silent as “little” evils grow ever larger? I’m not sure why Bari & friends decided to share this piece. It certainly does not have me rushing out to subscribe to The Atlantic.
