"IAF now deadlier than ever": pride comes before the fall

[Yerusha]

In the typical Israeli style of misplaced hubris, they now boast that the IAF is now "deadlier than ever" http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4517002,00.html

The last time this kind of boasting was heard was just before the Yom Kippur War when 120 Israeli jets were shot down.

The Torah repeatedly warns the Jew not not to attribute any prowess to himself, but solely to his Creator: "Do not say my strength and the power of my hands have wrought me this victory....!"

The motto of the Jew should be : "It is now the L-rd G-d of Israel who is deadlier than ever.....!"
