The comparisons made by Akiva are ridiculous and appeal only to the most simplistic of minds, did Akiva conjure this up during the heat of the day....or moments before a deadline.
Is the pressure on Iran justifiable or not? If Akiva believes that Iran should have nukes, his comparisons hold.
Is the pressure on hamas justifiable or not? If Akiva believes that it is correct for hamas to refuse recognition and demand the river to the sea, then his comparison holds.
Is the pressure on Syria justifiable or not? If Akiva believes that Syria should be backing, arming, training and aiding terrorists like hizbullah and hamas, his comparison holds.
If Akiva believes that it is justifiable to attack, terrorize and demand conditions that eliminate the Jewish State of Israel, his comparisons hold.
If Akiva believes that pressure shouldn`t be guided by friendship, shared values, morality but by political expediency, his comparison holds.
