(I mean no offense to Israelis/Jews and I realize it was a different war).

Chutzpah doesn’t mean courage. It is also not slang as some wikipedia or dictionaries online would have you believe. It is a slang word from Yiddish that is now a literal word in the Hebrew language, not slang. And it doesn’t mean “attitude” either. It means audacity or if you like to go for Italian, cajones works.

Take it from an American/Israeli that is fluent in both languages Zak (and D.J.)

Chutzpah is slang for attitude. Not courage. Should have said/meant cojones.
