It is beyond amazing that the Jews are willing to accept events such as those in Akko. That shows the lie that Arabs and left wing Jews are only opposed to Jews outside the green line. Any time there is a dispute between Jews and Arabs they support the Arabs no matter how outrageous their behavior. Israel needs massive change. While I have mixed feelings about Kahane and JDL (having been involved in it back in the early 70s) I see the conditions that brought JDL to the fore at that time developing again. The difference is that then Israel was strong in defending its interests. Arabs were afraid of Jews and the world respected Israel. Today Israel is powerful but weak in defending its interests. Jews in New York were cowering in their homes as Black, Puerto Rican and other Jew hating thugs ran wild. JDL and the neighborhood self defense groups such as the Maccabees were the first to stand up against this. I don't know who is going to emerge in Israel or elsewhere to turn the tide of Jewish weakness.
