A Dangerous Silence
April 12, 2010 | Ed Koch
I weep as I witness outrageous verbal attacks on Israel. What makes these
verbal assaults and distortions all the more painful is that they are being
orchestrated by President Obama.
For me, the situation today recalls what occurred in 70 AD when the Roman
emperor Vespasian launched a military campaign against the Jewish nation an=
d
its ancient capital of Jerusalem. Ultimately, Masada, a rock plateau in the
Judean desert became the last refuge of the Jewish people against the Roman
onslaught. I have been to Jerusalem and Masada.
