BDE. HYD.
A senior foreign ministry official whose son served under Shuminov described him as…a modern-day version of Yoav Ben Tzruyah”. Such offensive Zionism (that’s redundant). The Zionist official cannot possibly fathom the greatness of Yoav ben Tzeruyah; his military position in Dovid HaMelech’s kingdom is a side-point.
