     Their names have begun to become one. The Israeli public speaks of them in one breath. The mothers of these boys mention all three, call upon the world for the return of all of them.
 They are all our sons, our brothers, our children who are in harm's way because they are Jewish, because the world continues to devalue Jewish blood. One of the boys is an American citizen and why, President Obama, have you not taken ownership of that fact? Could he, too, also be your son? There are times that his mother has a touch of a good old Brooklyn accent in her English. She smiles as she describes her son and then fights hard as she says she cannot go certain places in her mind.
    These are the places that are unthinkable to all of us, to any caring and decent human being. These are boys who wanted only to get home. They were not throwing stones nor bricks nor flaming tires nor homemade explosives. Now they are who knows where, either dead or alive in horrific beyond thinking about conditions. Hamas and even PA officials trumpet about the triumphant and heroic deed that was their abduction even as they then accuse Israel of masterminding it! Sure, just as the Jews masterminded 9/11.
     Abbas, whose wife just completed surgery and recuperation in an Israeli hospital, says he will help find the boys even as he whines about the search. Truly, what would you do if it were your child, your boy, who had been snatched from life? The mere fact that underneath appliances and behind furniture there have been found tunnels, weapons manufacturing and storage places tells us much. The natural topography is difficult to search but it is impossible that the regular people who live around where these boys are now hidden do not know, they HAVE to know. The living quarters are too close together to hide and yet - NOONE SPEAKS - and the horror goes on.
     Now Syria, as if not busy enough killing its own citizens and reducing its country to rubble, now decides to ramp up its rocket shelling of Israel, perhaps to match the rockets and missiles raining down on civilians from Gaza, yes, the land of the peace loving Hamas. And when they kill a little 13 year old boy who went to work with his father, the world says nothing - and why, because he is Israeli - and yes, he is an Arab Israeli, possibly a Druze, but does one notice Israel making a distinction from a Jewish Israeli? NO!!!
     When will the world wake up and face facts. There have just been so many documentaries on WWII on TV, books published, and more to come and yet all have one thing in common - the disaster that took place because Chamberlain did not stand up to Hitler. Appeasement to bullies, to human filth, does not work. PC or not, Israel is in an existential fight for its life, as are Jews in France, Belgium and other areas of rising anti - Semitism. Terror is terror and murder is murder and do not, for one moment, think that we are exempt because we are here, across the ocean. Terror has feet. Terror has wings and it has already flown here several horrific times. World, face the facts, face reality, stand up to evil, for if not, it will come to you.
