Churchill? Not even close

Netanyahu made clear, what many of us have known for a long time that not only has he already abandoned us to the terrorists but that it will be the same in the future (Netanyahu campaign event cut short by Gaza rockets, September 11).

The siren went off during his campaign speech in Ashdod and of course he was rushed off to safety while the people I suppose were left to find what shelter they could.

On his return, his words I believe will go down in history as the most defeatist and surrender talk of all time. “If Hamas is shooting at us in a live broadcast, you can understand they don’t want us here.”

Wow! Who would ever have thought that!

“So prepare for another one. We’ll evacuate and then we’ll return,” he then said.

Imagine British prime minister Winston Churchill telling his people that instead of fighting on the beaches, on the land and on the sea and that they would never capitulate, he told them that they would run like ferrets into a hole and then come out and wait until the next time they have to run from the enemy.

I mention Churchill only because I understand he is one of Netanyahu’s heroes. Obviously he didn’t take too much notice of what he said or did.

Netanyahu talks of safe borders for Israel, which of course can only be when we control all of our land, minus our enemies. (“PM: Jordan Valley to be the first in sovereignty drive,” September 11).

It is almost laughable after his above comments, especially as it always comes up before an election and dies as soon as he is reelected. He would ensure that our enemies, referred to as “Palestinians” have complete freedom of movement throughout the West Bank.

Of course it would all have to wait until the boss, US President Donald Trump revealed his “Deal of the Century.” Read, surrender in one way or another to the terrorists.

What more could one ask for?
