Indeed, there is something about Western democracies by which they tend to carry the seeds of their own destruction — much like America’s permitting of radical groups such as the ACLU to demolish its religious and cultural institutions and observances, one at a time. However, in Israel’s case the threat is more immediate and powers of magnitude more frightening — at least in the short run. In the long run, I suspect, liberty as our grandparents knew it — while it is now only faintly remembered by a few (how many remember being able to order guns through the mail?) — will soon be completely forgotten.

Why are they “hell bent” on their own destruction? It seems that regardless of who is elected it seems that this slow dance with destruction will continue. It truly boggles the mind.
