Biography of Moshe Dayan |
Moshe
It
had always been common knowledge that Jews can’t fight and will bow before
their enemies but will not defend themselves. This convenient belief allowed the
huge majority of Christians and Muslims to kill and rob the small Jewish
minority. It
was not until the Jews of Israel finally gained weapons and organization that
they could show the world the opposite. No man was more responsible for this
inversion than Moshe Dayan, who became the very epitome of the self-confident
fighting Jew. Dayan was the representative of everything that the Jews of Israel
have achieved by defending themselves against the killer Arabs around them. Dayan
was born in Degania, Israel. At age 15 he joined the Haganah (Force), the Jewish
self-defense force, and also served in the special brigade organized by the
British general Wingate to deal with Arab terrorists. In the course of the
fighting, Dayan lost an eye in Syria when a sniper hit his binoculars. In
1948, Dayan participated in the War of Independence. Demonstrating his
outstanding courage and leadership, he was promoted to chief of staff of the
Israeli army in 1953. He became known worldwide for establishing the Israel
Defense Force’s offensive approach. In
1958, Dayan became a member of Israel’s parliament and later minister of
agriculture. He continued in that role until 1967, when Egypt, Jordan, Syria,
Lebanon, and Iraq simultaneously attacked Israel from all sides in the hope of
murdering the entire Jewish population and enriching themselves Nazi style on
the money, the land, the houses, and all possessions of the Jews they hoped to
kill. Evidently the Arabs believed then that Jews were still the patsies they
had been in Europe, where the Arab god Hitler
and his millions of European Christian followers had made money by slaughtering
Jews. This time the killers and all the world learned a lesson. Dayan had been
appointed defense minister as soon as the Egyptians closed the Straits of Tiran
and announced they would murder the whole Jewish population of Israel. American
newspapers and other media, as well as most churches, were already drooling with
enjoyment at the prospect of seeing another 4 million Jews slaughtered. However,
it ended otherwise. In six days, from June 5 to June 10, the Israeli army
literally wiped out the Egyptians, the Jordanians, the Syrians, the Lebanese,
and all others heavily armed by the Russian communist empire. It was to the
credit of Moshe Dayan to have led the victorious, vastly outnumbered Jewish
defense forces to victory over Hitler’s successors. In
1973, the Arab terrorists attempted once more to slaughter all Jews by attacking
on Yom Kippur, hoping that the Israeli army would not fight on that holy day.
Once more the terrorists lost. To
this day, in 2017, the Arab immigrants from lands surrounding Israel label
themselves Philistines and scream for Jewish blood. Yet their cause is lost,
because men like Moshe Dayan taught them that if they want to make money
they’ll have to go to work instead of seeking to rob dead Jews. The day of
Jewish acquiescence to any brutality is over. Israel has shown that Jews will
indeed defend themselves and that the Arab murderers have to kill each other, as
they usually do in the absence of Jewish victims. Shalom u’vracha. Dr. Gerhard Falk is the author of numerous publications, including The Assault on Democracy (2017). |
