The courage of the righteous

IMRA reports that a group of young Israeli citizens have written a letter to Minister of Defense Amir Peretz asking to be drafted to fight in the war against Hizballah.

"We are proud of Israel, and its just struggle," the letter reads, "and are prepared to carry out any mission that the IDF gives us."
What makes this news? As James Taranto reports, Fuad Nasser and his friends are Arabs, and their homes are being threatened by Hizballah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Nasrallah apparently doesn't know what it means to be a citizen of a free country, but Mr. Nasser does. We pray that God continues to bless Israel with courageous young patriots like him.
