Says a senior officer in Gaza: "The soldiers must run to every tire burning and stone throwing and chase the perpetrators, even if the chances of catching them are not high...
...efforts to make long-term plans, we pale in comparison with Nomura's awesome strategic thinking and investment." There is always the reminder of Detroit in the 1960s, when U.S. auto companies thought they were invulnerable to Japanese competition.
