Halevi.


This is coolbert:

"We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets" - W. S. Churchill.

That from the famous speech of Churchill 1940. See the whole text and additional good stuff of interest. 

This Israeli general officer Herzi Halevi must have been reading too much Churchill!

From https://www.breitbart.com | the article by JOEL B. POLLAK | 31 Oct 2023.

Here with the speech of the general to his troops prior to massive Israeli entry into Gaza:

"Stations of the Southern Command, attention:

We are going into the attack against Hamas and the terror organizations in the Gaza Strip.

Our objective is one: victory.

It does not make a difference how long the fight will be, how difficult. There is no result other than victory.

We will fight in professionally and powerfully, in the light of the values of the IDF in which we were trained, the first of which is commitment to the mission, and the pursuit of victory.

We will fight them in the alleys, we will fight them in the tunnels, we will fight them wherever it is necessary.

And we will strike the abominable enemy against which we stand.

My brother soldiers: the residents of Be’eri, Sderot, Nir Oz, Kfar Aza, and the towns of the western Negev, and with them all the nation of Israel — everyone is watching us at this time.

Like me, they are relying on you, and they believe in you.

You are the generation of victory.

Attention: embark on your missions, strike the enemy. Over and out"

I hate to be pedantic but "over and out" is incorrect! Either over OR out but not both!

"pedantic: adjective - Characterized by a narrow, often ostentatious concern for academic knowledge and formal rules."
