The purpose of the blog is to publicize a book of the same name, and to propagate a new viewpoint regarding Israel’s struggle. The book provided me with a radical new perspective of the way in which events concerning Israel and the Gentiles could be shaped. It is extremely convincing and the Reut institute should certainly read it. It presents Israel’s situation from a far higher strategic perspective than we have ever seen before, and the author Paul Caplan, strongly suggests in the blog, that Reut is the right organization to act upon it. Armed with this new strategy, Reut would be in a position to mobilize enormous forces on behalf of Israel. Having watched the Reut institute for the past two years, I urge Mr. Grinstein to read the book. He will obtain a new perspective that he has certainly not seen before.
