The quote:
“History proves that, unfortunately and unhappily, Jesus Christ has no advantage over Genghis Khan. Because if you are strong enough, ruthless enough, powerful enough, evil will overcome good. Aggression will overcome moderation.”
My comment:
Israel is under nonstop attack specifically because of her proxy status for the USA, because she refused to fold to socialism and ally with Russia, and because she houses half the world’s population of Jews in a nation of explicitly Jewish character.
The aggression is directed at Israel.
Meanwhile, her insistence on survival is recast by her enemies as “genocidal.” Yet another example of antisemitism.
Netanyahu’s comment means only that one must respond militarily to such threats. This is a core principle of Zionism — not to go like sheep to the slaughter. Not to be incinerated as in the Holocaust.
That said, I disagree with the formulation which says man’s strength is more important than being a messenger of God.
