If There Were Ever Something That Could Be Called A "Soft" War, Then That Is What Is Occurring Now Against The Jews Around The World And Israel, Helped In No Small Part By President Obama And His Administration

The "soft war" against Israel and the Jewish people is described in a speech given by Rupert Murdoch at an Anti-Defamation League dinner in New York. A short excerpt below is followed by a link to the content reprinted in The Jerusalem Post:

"We live in a world where there is an ongoing war against the Jews. For the first decades after Israel’s founding, this war was conventional in nature. The goal was straightforward: to use military force to overrun Israel. Well before the Berlin Wall came down, that approach had clearly failed.

Then came phase two: terrorism. Terrorists targeted Israelis both home and abroad – from the massacre of Israeli athletes at Munich to the second intifada.

The terrorists continue to target Jews across the world. But they have not succeeded in bringing down the Israeli government – and they have not weakened Israeli resolve.

Now the war has entered a new phase. This is the soft war that seeks to isolate Israel by delegitimizing it.

The battleground is everywhere: the media, multinational organizations, NGOs. In this war, the aim is to make Israel a pariah.

The result is the curious situation we have today: Israel becomes increasingly ostracized, while Iran – a nation that has made no secret of wishing Israel’s destruction – pursues nuclear weapons loudly, proudly, and without apparent fear of rebuke..."
