When Ukrainian President Zelensky Said, “Listen, I Am Here,” He Made the Ultimate Jewish Statement Thousands of years after our biblical patriarch Abraham’s poignant cry to God of “Hineni” (“Here I am”), the ultimate expression of responsibility, a Jewish president in the midst of war uttered a similar message: “Listen. I am here.” - An interesting write, which I have read.

All said and done, in my view, it’s not enough to impose sanctions … it’s an overrated tool. At the critical hour, Ukraine found itself alone. Those who could step in, didn’t. The world blinked. Trust in verbose speeches made from distant pulpits has lost its value.

I agree with all you say above. Verbose speeches, wasted time .....and the saving of many lives in Ukraine - what should have occurred was 'action' to assist the Ukrainian Leader and his people.

All free world leaders should hang their heads in shame.What happened with WWII with the Jewish Holocaust is repeating with Ukraine.What Ukraine needed from the very start was a united front from free world leaders to assist them to close the skies. If not defending Ukraine in the air, then supply Ukraine with airpower (fighting planes) they pleaded for;NATO is useless what is the point of NATO if not to assist Ukraine in its hour of need.Putin should have been taken out from the get go.Time has been wasted.I feel as many others do now that we are in WWIII.Putin is obviously insane and could do anything at any moment, he holds the 'free world' to ransom with his atomic threat.Where is Israel in all this, time will tell - watched the address by Zelensky to Israel this morning. Meanwhile, Putin has given Meriupol 5am deadline today to surrender. If peace talks and a compromise not reached, we are all in WWIII. All those who could step up and didn't, should hang their heads in shame.
