Quote Of The Day
As the one responsible for the defense of Israel I am not prepared to be in a situation in which we will be forced to say we were not prepared in time [for war] because we had not received authorization from a clerk in the Ministry of Finance. I believe in transparency no less than Minister of Finance Steinitz, but from my perspective what is important is the ability to actively function in the security operations.
-- Defense Minister Ehud Barak, in a discussion regarding a possible large-scale cut of the defense budget
