LINK: The JPost gives us an idea of what allies sound like:
"In these early hours of the conflict it is enough to say to America: Israel is with you not only official Israel, but all its citizens."
"This is a just war. It is being undertaken not to expand empire, gain natural resources, colonize, or propagate an alien creed, but to liberate 22 million people from tyranny. Shakespeare's lines in Henry IV come to mind: "Now, for our consciences, the arms are fair, when the intent of bearing them is just."
Israelis feel a special kinship toward America. We stand ready to assist our ally in any way possible. No one can more wholeheartedly empathize with the parents of US soldiers now in battle than Israeli parents whose own children have been where America's are going; if not into Baghdad, then into war."
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
-The Dutch Ten Commandments to Foil the Nazis
