With Nikki Haley's Resignation, We Israelis Lost A Hero
(Forward) Shoshanna Keats Jaskoll - Nikki Haley was the international friend many Israelis have waited decades to have. The friend who called out class bullies, crushed the old boy's club and outshone the teacher's pet. She is the friend who has your back with grace, poise and deadly precision, just when you need her most. She had honesty, the grit and the willingness to stand up for what's right. That she did all of this without using inflammatory and partisan language made her all the more worthy of admiration. Haley consistently spoke out against the bias she saw in the institution meant to be the embodiment of all that is good in humanity. What should have been the coming together of mankind to seek good and prosperity for the world instead has become a black hole of back door deals where the worst human rights offenders parade as human rights defenders whose common goal is the vilification of the world's only Jewish state.
