How sad and how infuriating it is that this is how the world views us. After the long and heartbreaking road of continuous pogroms directed against us throughout the decades, we are finally back home – by moral right and not by force.
We allow these foreigners into our country and let them go to the Muslims and give them support. We stupidly give them permission to go to the military checkpoints, where our sons and daughters in uniform are forced to endanger themselves in order to prevent the next terror attack from happening. This, they do not wish to see or understand. They merely see Jewish soldiers with guns forcing Arabs to wait in line to get into or out of certain areas.
How can they be so blind to the truth? How can they be silent to those who are the cause of the misery and death on both sides? How dare they come here and talk against our G-d, our Bible, our land and our people?
Toward the end of their visit, one of the guests had the audacity to say, “You pack people up and ship them to your country in order to ensure an Jewish majority.” This sentence, more than anything else, portrays what these “human rights activists” believe. They believe that we, the Jewish people, have no right to exist as a nation in our sovereign land. They believe that we have no right to protect ourselves from terrorism. They disclaim our history, our Bible, our land, our nation and our G-d.
I don’t know if it was right to meet with them or not. I do know that I will not be silent. Never again will we allow lies, distorted half-truths, hatred and blindness to go unanswered. So, I guess the next time I am asked to meet with some of these visitors, I again will meet with them and at least do my best to tell the truth and show them the reality of the situation.
Never will I take for granted the fact that we, the Jewish people, have finally come home to our land, the land promised to us. I only pray that we are worthy of it.
