I support your work
Doug Mayfield 9 June 2002
Mr. Netanyahu,
I strongly support your work and speeches and look forward to the day
when
you are elected Prime Minister of Israel and can put your policies into
action. I say this because I believe that the agony which your country
is now
experiencing will continue until such action is taken.
I support Israel because when I look at a map of the Middle East, I
see a
collection of nasty tyrannies, secular and religious, in the middle of
which
is one country, Israel, in which freedom and individual rights are
respected.
I abhor the 'diplomatic' approach of some leaders of my country,
particulalrly Mr. Powell, who seem more interested in 'peace' than at
actually looking at the reality of the situation and taking appropriate
action, beginning with denouncing, loudly and clearly, ugly thugs like
Mr.
Arafat.
I also regret that leaders of my country seem unable to take the steps
necessary to prevent further terrorist attacks on this nation. The day
after
September 11, I e-mailed people I knew here in Los Angeles, and in
other
parts of the US, saying that we should use the threat of nuclear
weapons to
force the governments of Iraq, Iran, Syria, Libya, and any other nation
which
has been supporting terrorists, as these obviously have, to resign
immediately or be utterly destroyed.
While some of my friends were sympathetic, generally I was viewed as
being
out of control or caught up in the emotion of the moment. I was not. I
was, I
still believe, entirely right.
Unfortunately, I think it will take a terrorist attack against the US
of
awesome proportions, probably involving weapons of mass destruction,
before
Americans will see what must be done. The war against us has already
started.
We should finish it now before something much more horrible happens, as
I
believe it inevitably will if we don't act now.
Thank you for your hard work on behalf of people who believe as you do.
Doug Mayfield
