A couple days after September 11, 2001, in the fury and fear that followed that terrible event, someone in these pages penned a piece that caused great anger and outrage even by the elevated standards of those angry and outraged days. “Time to Face Mecca” proposed that the United States should make it clear to its enemies in the Muslim world that the next time a terrorist should contemplate carrying out an attack on an American city or national symbol, he should know with a certainty that the result of his act will be the utter destruction of Islam’s most holy sites.
I disagree with his prescription. It doesn’t go nearly far enough.
Even if the principle were applicable to the United States and al-Qaeda then, it would hardly suffice now to solve Israel’s current predicament, with the looming multivalent threat of thousands of weapons of mass destruction from Syria, Iran, Pakistan and other enemies.
Israel is a nation about 40 miles wide, even including all of its Biblical heartland. A third of its population lives in the Tel Aviv area, another third around Jerusalem. Tel Aviv is the center of our economic life, Jerusalem is the center of our collective soul: our history, our traditions, our meaning as a people.
One nuclear weapon over Israel’s center could cripple if not destroy our country, murder millions, repeat the Holocaust in an instant. Two would be overkill.
When our enemies say they want to wipe us off the map, they mean it. When they say the Holocaust was a myth, they want to make another myth. They want us all very dead and gone. Back to the friendly confines of Germany, as Ahmadinejad suggested to the doddering Mike Wallace.
