Day Eight in Israel Writer: Daniel Harari

Today we went on a beautiful hike. The waterfalls were amazing. We saw a beaver-like animal. Later in the afternoon we heard a speaker. He was very interesting, and openly expressed his political view. We had a wonderful meat dinner, and spent a few hours in Tiberius.

The speaker talked about how he lived without fear; the speaker talked about how he lived without fear; he not only was a paratrooper in Israel's four wars he also lives in Golan Heights where Israel borders Hezbollah's town in Lebanon. He along with all of Israel has no choice but to live without fear. The day after this, Melissa Fuhrman said that that was the one thing that really resonated with her. One myth he brought to justice that gives Hezbollah and Hamas reason to be terrorize Israel is the notion that Israelis stole the land from the Arabs. He said that Israel bought land from Arabs before WWII and from the Brits after WWII. We bought it fair and square. And what was either Jordanian land or Egypt's was vanquished by the IDF to Israel during the 1967 war. I learned that Islamic terrorists are not anti-semitic, they are just anti-Western and anti-let their land be taken away. It may sound like they have reasonable reasons to terrorize, like they are "freedom fighters", but really we justly have the right to own the land.
