Today, on Yom HaZikaron, Israel’s Memorial Day, we remember the 30,961 IDF soldiers, police officers, members of Israel’s national security forces, and civilians who have lost their lives due to war and terror - over the past 78 years.
When people criticise Israel, imagine this same loss - 30,961 people - scaled proportionally to other countries over roughly 80 years. How do you think those nations would respond to stop Islamic terrorism?
