Americans barely remember the time they had their own nuclear crisis and how then US president, John F. Kennedy, dealt with it.
Reclining comfortably here in the United States, Americans are apt to wonder why the panic in Israel.
Details of the deal hatched between the Obama Administration and the ayatollahs over Iran’s nuclear program are still in flux except for this:
Iran gets to keep its missiles and this has Israel terrified, as once we were terrified.
Political differences were set aside between ourselves when we faced the Cuban Missile Crisis and today even the hard Left in Israel joins the Netanyahu Administration in expressing fear and loathing if, as appears to be the case, Iran’s ICBM’s stay poised toward the Jewish State.
