Operation Rising Lion: A modern-day miracle
"We are doing this for the peace of tomorrow. For our home. That is our mission."
It is hard to comprehend the miracles that are unfolding before our eyes.
If you were told a couple of years ago that in 2025 Israel would have severely degraded Hezbollah, isolated Hamas, caused the fall of the Assad regime, brought the IRGC to its knees and destroyed Iran’s nuclear capabilities, you would simply say it can’t be true. But that is where we are today.
What we witnessed over the weekend was the reimagining and rebirth of a new US/Israel collaboration, built on a new paradigm that no doubt applies to all US allies. As Haviv Rettig Gur states, “The ally does the heavy lifting” and the “United States comes in and delivers the coup de grace.”
The US has sent a clear message to the world and to its allies: if you are willing to fight for yourself, we will fight for you, but don’t expect us to do the heavy lifting for you.
Over the past 20 months, Israel has demonstrated to the US that it is willing and able to fight for herself. Israel has shown the world its tenacity, ingenuity, determination and discipline again and again, month after month.
