Israel: America's model for reducing violent crime

Last week, I made an audio recording endorsing the re-election of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel’s general election on Jan. 22.

I explained in the endorsement, “You might think I’m a tough guy in my films, but in a rough neighborhood like the Middle East, Israel has his own tough guy. His name is Bibi Netanyahu” (the prime minister’s nickname).

Netanyahu’s leadership and strength were evident as far back as 1967, when he was a part of the Israel Defense Force’s elite commando unit, Sayeret Matkal. And they were just as obvious in public service through the years, as I added in my endorsement: “Bibi brought the pressing issue of Israel’s security to the world, speaking loudly and clearly to the United Nations and in Congress, bringing the world together to put sanctions on Iran. He has raised a wall along the whole southern border of Israel, stopped the missiles from raining on Israel and showed Hamas they will not be tolerated. He also made the bravest decision in securing the release of Gilad Shalit,” an Israeli sports columnist and former soldier who was abducted inside Israel by Hamas militants.

I concluded the audio recording by encouraging Israeli citizens: “So vote for Benjamin Netanyahu, because a strong prime minister is a strong Israel.”

    Israel needs to stand tough, and the US must stand with them.

    • Seymour Kleely

      But we must not be afraid to challenge them when they're wrong. EG. continued expansion of illegal settlements.

      • John Adams

        Those settlements CANNOT be illegal – God gave that land to Israel!!! Build on!!

        • Seymour Kleely

          Bingo!!! Who wrote the Bible ("God's Word")? Hint, they weren't Swiss.

          • John Adams

            GOD is the Author of the Bible!!

          • Seymour Kleerly

            How? What kind of pen ( or any writing device) did he use? Do you understand the word METAPHOR? Please use your God Given brain for just one minute sir. This is an adult site I hope.

          • John Adams

            God used men to write the words, but He gave them the exact words to write. Like someone today dictating a letter, only God did it in a way that insured there were absolutely NO mistakes.

          • Seymour Kleerly

            OK. good, we're getting there. What "way" did God use to prevent mistakes?

          • John Adams

            That is something we don't know. However, we are assured that the text is inerrant.

          • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=58215905 Wesley Woods

            that is the Qur'an. for outside of Leviticus and the prophesies God did not dictate the Bible. now i see why you worship the Bible and Israel instead of God himself. Zionism is idolatry.

        • Bighoss

          Forgettabouttit! Israel abandoned God and lost the right to have that land. Yoday, Israel is predominantly populated by people who are atheists, agnostics, and non-observant Jews. They are no longer the "chosen people".

          • John Adams

            God has NOT abandoned Israel, even though most of the Jews have abandoned God. God WILL keep His covenant with Israel. God cannot lie.

          • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=58215905 Wesley Woods

            God kept is covenant by giving them their Messiah, but they rejected him forfeiting everything.

          • John Adams

            You are believing lies.

        • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=58215905 Wesley Woods

          so you are saying American can build settlements in Mexico and claim they are American towns right or vice versa?

          • John Adams

            NO!!! God has NOT given nor promised any land to American.

          • http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=58215905 Wesley Woods

            so if you are a Jew you can break any agreement even with God and still be given God's promises for just being a Jew. you are like the media when it comes to Obama blind to everything while blinding worshiping Jews.

          • John Adams

            I do not worship Jews, however, I KNOW that they are God's chosen and special people. He WILL keep His promises to them.

  • John J Flanagan

    Israel can secure their borders more easily than we can. We have thousands of miles along the Canadian border, the same on the border with Mexico, and innumerable ways to enter by the sea on either coast. Even with better security, we are very vulnerable to terrorists entering our land.

    • Evermyrtle

      The security is nothing like it is assumed to be. There hundreds coming across the borders every day. Many of them are criminals, some violent criminals

  • Charles Class

    Our "leaders" do not want secure borders. They want to "Imigration Reform," new Democrat voters.

  • mallen11

    We need a strong leader like Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu instead of a weak leader
    like -0.
    No guns for our citizens; no freedom for our country. We don't need a dictatorship. Too many have died for our freedom in this country and we need to maintain it. The children are not being taught about our great history in our schools so we need to be teaching them in our homes.

    Leadership position often loses humility. Like in WDC and State and local governments. Human leaders must exercise humility. Arrogance of power is destructive. Our leaders should be enhancing freedom not arrogance forcing more control on our country. They only recognize their own arrogance.
