They just have a great PR machine right now. I think Danny is right, look at the Sudan, Darfur, hell, all of Africa. We invaded Iraq to protect the oil, not the kurds! <BR/><BR/>On the other hand, we are all very angry with ourselves and each other and the gov't for forgetting them, for ignoring them, for abandoning the soldiers, but what about God? WHY is god allowing this to happen? I know there are no answers - although I know what Danny will say - yet the question still needs to be asked.<BR/><BR/><BR/>We, as Jews, feel the loss because the soldiers are one of us. But the world could not care less.<BR/><BR/>May Hashem to to change this zman to "kara alav MOED" and bring the soldiers home as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-92057889879543252262007-07-12T15:46:00.000+03:002007-07-12T15:46:00.000+03:00that is mostly true, but when a poor little palest...that is mostly true, but when a poor little palestinian kid gets killed in crossfire, then the world is outraged and Israel is pressured....Rafi G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00699851287106903971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-233144649666892482007-07-12T15:16:00.000+03:002007-07-12T15:16:00.000+03:00"The world was not outraged.

The "world" doesn't care when anyone is brutally murdered. Jews are no better or worse. Does the world care about the ongoing holecaust in North Korea? or Sudan or Darfur or Liberia? Kids dying of starvation on the streets of India and throughout South America and on and on and on...<BR/>A jew dying brings no world outrage because no one cares about anyone outside their own little group. It is not some conspiracy of jew hatred.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-1325591478911067362007-07-12T14:37:00.000+03:002007-07-12T14:37:00.000+03:00Great Post Rafi, unfortunately it does seem that t...Great Post Rafi, unfortunately it does seem that the Israeli government is ignoring the plight of these soldiers. The UN has betrayed Israel once again, next time they advocate a withdrawal of military action, we should remember the treachery we have faced.<BR/><BR/>Mr BagelMr Bagelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07983605031622179624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-27003710370149924502007-07-12T12:36:00.000+03:002007-07-12T12:36:00.000+03:00May Hashem protect the missing soldiers and restor...May Hashem protect the missing soldiers and restore them to their families!Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06067406973014144499noreply@blogger.com
