How would you feel if after New Jersey fired rockets on Manhattan if the State of New York responded by putting a giant wall along the Hudson River shoreline and cut off access through the Lincoln Tunnel, Holland Tunnel, and GWB?I'm willing to bet you've never had to take shelter following an air raid siren, and that you have no idea what it is like to have to drop everything you are doing at that moment and run to the designated safe place in the building you are in. Or as you walk down the street, you are looking around at each building or for signs directing you to the nearest shelter so if a siren goes off, you've already decided where to go. Or have an app on your smartphone that tells you where the nearest shelter is and how far you need to run to get there. And that was in Jerusalem. Imagine what life for my cousins in Ashkelon is like. Israel protects its citizens, the same way you would want your government to if you were in s similar situation. |
