In Praise of Israeli Directness
Israeli directness is not perfect, it is not always pleasant and sometimes it sounds like a fight even when it is not.
But it has one advantage that many things do not have: it is genuine.
If you’ve ever searched for the factor that makes terrorists run like tigers, scream like peacocks and feel like they’re invulnerable – look no further. It’s not about the Holy Spirit, it’s not about deep inner jihad, it’s not even about the ideology of a paradise with 72 virgins. It’s about a small, white pill with a name that sounds like a health insurance product – Captagon. Only instead of healing, it’s addictive, dangerous, and of course – insanely profitable.
