Facing Nuclear Madmen? Israel’s Security and Enemy Rationality
Saturday, February 27th, 2010By Prof. Louis Rene Beres “Do you know what it means to find yourselves face to face with a madman,” asks Luigi Pirandello’s Henry IV. “Madmen, lucky folk, construct without logic, or rather with a logic that flies like a feather.” What is true for individuals is sometimes also true for states.

Dir Yassin Excerpted from The Revolt by Menachem Begin pages163/4
Saturday, February 20th, 2010One would have thought, rightly, that an episode such as the 1948 battle for Deir Yassin would have been forgotten by now. Youd be wrong.
