Nasrallah was *my* terrorist.
Each one of us grows up watching a terrorist on TV threatening to kill us.
For many Americans, it was Osama Bin Laden.
For me, it was Nasrallah.
I grew up in Northern Israel.
Every few years, Nasrallah would target us with a barrage of rockets. His rockets would be directed at nearby Jewish towns, but of course they miss and fall in Muslim towns in Israel. My town was one of them.
Imagine the irony.
US college students can not understand this.
*My* terrorist is dead today. It's great news not just for me, but for many Syrians, Lebanese, Saudis, and..Israelis.
I am naively optimistic.
But I hope today sends a signal to people in the Middle East that moderation, acceptance of reality and coexistence is the only way.
Terrorism way will always end up in failure. Always.
Even if it takes 32 years to arrive.
