Jewish Indy - BEING SILENT ABOUT EVIL
Alexander Solzhenitsyn writes in The Gulag Archipelago: “In keeping silent about evil, in burying it so deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface, we are implanting it, and it will rise up a thousand-fold in the future. When we neither punish nor reproach evildoers, we are not simply protecting their trivial old age, we are thereby ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations. It is for this reason … that they are growing up ‘indifferent.’ Young people are acquiring the conviction that foul deeds are never punished on earth, that they always bring prosperity. Obviously Mr. Netanyahu was being discreet [i.e., “politically correct”] about Islam; after all, he was speaking to a joint session of Congress. However, his reference to Islam was not only misleading, as any honest student of the subject knows, but unnecessary if not disarming. Anti-Israel and anti-Jewish propaganda not only floods the Arab-Islamic world, but makes Der Sturmer tame by comparison. Despite Egypt’s peace treaty with Israel, Cairo’s state-controlled media denigrate anything Jewish, including “Old Testament.” His books are available at Lightcatcher Books . His most recent book is: Toward a Renaissance of Israel and America. His recent books are: A Jewish Philosophy of History and The Myth of Israeli Democracy: Toward a Truly Jewish Israel. His previous book, Jewish Statesmanship: Lest Israel Fall, provides the philosophical and institutional foundations for reconstructing the State of Israel. It has been translated into Hebrew and Russian. He is the author of Toward a Renaissance of Israel and America (Lightcatcher Books, 2009).
