Lives of Noble Purpose Cut Short in a War the Free World Must Not Lose


[Jerusalem Post] David Horovitz - The premeditated assault on Habad House and Mumbai's other soft targets is only the latest bloody declaration of war by the death-cult Islamists, seeking now to destabilize India, but ultimately threatening all of our freedoms. To its abiding moral and practical detriment, much of the international community nonetheless shies from this reality, clinging to the notion that there are specific, legitimate grievances motivating the murder, and that these grievances can be sated and normal service resumed. In truth, of course, it's us or them. And the appalling "success" of this most recent, sophisticated assault on another free society, this latest benighted exercise in a campaign of global destabilization, exposes the incompetence of our defense. The free world must first acknowledge the scale of the challenge, and then set in place the cooperative security, intelligence and legal frameworks to meet it. The writer is editor-in-chief of the Jerusalem Post.
