50th anniversary of Golda Meir's resignation as Prime Minister is an excellent opportunity to examine the character of Israel's leaders at this time. Israel is not a widow: if, God forbid, such an attack on a civilian population takes place, the IDF will open up options for a response that the enemy has not known until now.
Haifa Mayor Yona Yahav has suffered quite a few accusations of inciting panic and harming national resilience, but whoever among the residents of his city installs a telephone line in the good old fashioned way, will be able to talk to their loved ones even in the event of the fall of the cellular network. It may be (I hope so) that we will not need all of these, but a public figure is obliged to tell his audience the truth, instead of being required to use clever slogans of "prepared for any scenario" Said in a deep bass voice, just as we heard from IDF commanders in the days of the Day War Kippur.
