Israel: “USA Crossed Red Line”
… for our trespass is great, and there is fierce wrath against Israel—2 Chronicles 28:13
Arabic is more guttural than Hebrew. Yet, probably it lacks a word capable to compete with four guttural consonants in a row as Hebrew has. “Haron” is translated as “wrath,” which appears in the subtitle. The “h” is more guttural than the “ch” in “loch;” the Hebrew “r” is semi-guttural, pronounced with the tongue on the spot where the palate breaks upwards. A typical Hebrew way of strengthening meaning is doubling the root of a word. That is how “meharher” is achieved.* “Squared-wrath” is roughly the meaning of the derived word.

The Grapes of Wrath
The Biblical Wrath in this case is “Za’am” and not “Haron”
There is no much use for such a violent word except for a popular phrase “Meharher Milhama” can be translated as “Someone who wrath war.” A discourse preaching war at all cost; the overdose of gutturals clarifies the point. Hitler’s speeches probably are the best example in this category.
One day after a distressed Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu threatened to attack Iran after an almost-agreement was achieved in Geneva, Israeli media were filled with such “Meharherei Milhama”+ discourses preaching war with Iran, which may pay dear for its diplomatic success. “You shall not spoil Zion’s Business of War,” is the Elders First Commandment.
“Kerry Crossed a Red Line”
More than Netanyahu’s violent words yesterday, the wild look of this dandy broadcast the urgency of his message.
Netanyahu is losing the cold war against Iran. Adding this to his failure in solving the Social Protests and in his losing of the Ultra-Orthodox support due to their draft to the IDF, Netanyahu sees his political end approaching faster than a ballistic missile.
“Bring out the heavy cannons,” was his message.

The IDF top commando unit is Battalion 262,++ Benjamin Netanyhau, Ehud Barak and current Minister of Defense Ya’alon$ being among their best known members. Naftali Bennet a key member in Netanyahu’s current government was a company commander there and in Maglan.

Maglan is like 262, but smaller and specializes in high-tech weapons. Founded in the 1980s, it was hidden for years behind Moran, an anti-tank weapons unit. They were the first to use optically guided missiles in the IDF.
Moti Yogev is a Knesset Member for The Jewish Home; a retired IDF colonel, he was commander of Maglan, an elite commando unit. In that position, he was commander of Naftali Bennett, the party’s leader. How to put it softly? Matkal-Maglan Veterans are all members of the Israeli Kosher-Nostra.
Expectedly, he is a known hardliner. Following the assassination of the Australian Prisoner X,$$ he said “there is room for criticism, but one must know that there are certain topics that most Israeli citizens don’t want to know about and trust their safety in the hands of the security systems.”

Following Netanyahu’s almost declaration of war, Yogev commented on US Secretary of State John Kerry, who visited Israel before hurriedly leaving for Geneva, where an agreement between the P5+1 and Iran will probably be signed. The event was seen as a personal insult by Netanyahu. Kerry had been talking with Israelis, Palestinians and Jordanians about a peace agreement.
Yogev said that Kerry had crossed a red line and added “John Kerry, in Hebrew we say that you are not a fair negotiator. You are responsible for the American errors in the last year. In English we say ‘Kerry go home.’”
Until now, in the Israeli political speech, only Iran could cross red lines. Now, also the USA.
Other politicians spoke along similar lines, but the most striking reaction was of a different nature.

Israeli False Flag
The day after Kerry hurriedly left the Holy Land, Yediot Ahronot, the Hebrew largest paid newspaper, published the Iranian video linked below.
For Iranian Video, please click here: http://www.roitov.com/articles/meharhereimilhama.htm
The newspaper claims that the video was broadcast during a one-hour program by the Iranian national television in which the country’s ballistic capabilities were explored.
Iranian Sejil missiles can be seen launched and hitting targets in Israel. The targets are the nuclear reactor at Dimona, the Ben Gurion International Airport that provides the main gate to Isreal, the Ministry of Defense and IDF Headquarters in Tel Aviv, the Azrieli Towers in Tel Aviv and Against all odds the Tzrifin Base near the mentioned airport. Israeli anti-missiles can be seen displaying only partial success as invariably happens.
It also displays IDF rescue forces in real images taken during the 2006 Lebanon War. The few words uttered in the video are Hebrew and belong to the rescuers calling for the fire-fighters.
Built by the British halfway between Jaffa and Ramle, Tzrifin hosts the largest concentration of IDF training bases, though it soon will move to Las Vegas, Israel. This shows that the video is only half-serious. It is inconceivable that it would be chosen as one of the first targets by any foreign army. Israel produces similar material on Arab countries.
The Hebrew newspaper chose the Day after Kerry, to release it, implying that an Iranian attack is imminent after the USA abandoned Israel.
This is less than 24 hours after the event. In the following weeks, Israel will launch an Israeli-lobby campaign in Washington. No more Jewish donations for you, Mr. Kerry, despite your ancestry. At the moment America refused to fight for Zion, the USA crossed a red line. Will Tehran offer political refuge to Kerry?

Notes
* Hebrew and Semitic roots are not related to the Indo-European rooy concept. Hebrew verbs (and the derived nouns) are made of three-consonant roots (variants of two and four exist, they are related to the more basic three consonant root, but the topic is beyond the scope of this article). Roots can be conjugated into one of seven verbs “buildings” (highly structured, Hebrew does not need auxiliary verbs, though they may be used) and many nouns “weighs.” The root Het.Reish.Hei means wrath. The mentioned doubling skips the hei, and doubles the rest, creating the het.reish.het.reish root. “Squared wrath” can give a general feeling of the meaning to the English speaker, but it is not exact.

+ I was faithful to Hebrew syntax. Both phrases are possessives between two nouns closely related to verbs. The firs “Meharher Milhama” is singular, while “Meharherei Milhama” is the masculine plural.
++ Battalion 262 is colloquially known as “Sayeret Matkal,” the Reconnaissance Unit of the General Command. Media reports on the structure of IDF commando and reconnaissance units (adding to the confusion, both enter under the Hebrew term “sayeret,” which can be loosely translated as “wanderer”) are fuzzy due to the intentional operative matrix adopted by these. These units overlap in their capabilities, adding flexibility to the General Command in their use. Finding errors in reports and reviews of IDF special units is common. Contradictions between different descriptions seem to be the norm and eventually discredit most sources. Oddly enough, many times the reports are correct; their only fault being that they are incomplete. With few exceptions (Kingfisher being the most obvious one), these units rate as battalions. However, beyond the formal definition and their subdivision into platoons, there is no operational similarity between them and regular battalions. Each commando platoon has a specific training, which transforms it into a military expert in that topic. Then, specialties are constructed in a matrix fashion across the army. Every commando unit has a counterterrorism specialized platoon. This makes it easier for the IDF to have at any moment an available specialist on the topic. Moreover, it allows a combination of capabilities that increases maneuverability. In special conditions, such a grid-organization enables it to answer complex situations. Imagine a need to perform a counterterrorism operation atop Mount Hermon, at the ski resort. Sending a commando unit accustomed to work in the desert will cause difficulties. The soldiers would not have proper equipment; they would not know how to behave in the snow. In such a case, a mixed team from Sayeret Matkal Alpinist and its Counterterrorism platoons would be formed and delivered.
$ Abu Jihad, kunya for Khalil Ibrahim al-Wazir, was one of the founders of Fatah, the main party forming the PLO. He was assassinated on April 16, 1988 while sleeping in his home in Tunis. He was shot at point blank while his wife watched, Nazi-style. In the months previous to his death, he organized the Youth Committees that became the backbone of the First Intifada. He was assassinated by a mixed team of Shayetet 13 and Sayeret Matkal commandos. The first is Israel’s Naval Commando, which was the secondary force responsible for the landing. The second is the IDF’s elite commando unit. The Sayeret Matkal force was led by Moshe Yaalon, the current Minister of Defense. During the event, he answered to the code name Bogart (after Humphrey Bogart), thing that lead to his current nickname “Bogie” (a diminutive, he wasn’t such a good actor).
