Freed Israeli Hostage Blasts Army's 'Lack Of Preparedness'
Thomas Jefferson was right:
Monroe, 1813. ME 13:261
Goes to show that massive funding of a large professional Army and then relying on the government to save you is a false hope.During the press statement, Lifshitz also condemned the Israeli army's lack of preparedness for the attack on 7 October, saying that "two billion" shekels had been spent on security systems that did not work.
She also attacked the government for its failures in the lead-up to the attack. "We were the government's scapegoat, we were abandoned. We went through hell," she said.
Thomas Jefferson was right:
--Thomas Jefferson: 8th Annual Message, 1808. ME 3:482"For a people who are free and who mean to remain so, a well-organized and armed militia is their best security.
--Thomas Jefferson to James"We must train and classify the whole of our male citizens, and make military instruction a regular
part of collegiate education. We can never be safe till this is done."
Monroe, 1813. ME 13:261
--Thomas Jefferson: 1st Inaugural, 1801."A well-disciplined militia, our best reliance in peace and for the first moments of war till regulars
may relieve them, I deem [one of] the essential principles of our Government, and consequently
[one of] those which ought to shape its administration."
