So now we're left, finally, without Turkey, without Egypt and without the Palestinian Authority, which will soon be a thing of the past after the Israeli government and the U.S. Congress euthanize it following its request for independence from the United Nations. And the burden of the occupation will go back to what it has always been.
There is no longer a need to explain how important it is now to increase the defense budget and meanwhile to postpone any demands for a change in priorities and to stop the debate over the release of kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit, which only distracts us. Now we must focus all efforts on preparing for Operation Cast Lead 2 or Operation Defensive Shield 2 or the Third Lebanon War, whichever comes first. September is at the gate, in any case, and now is not the hour for matters of the hour.
