Targeting Jerusalem - may be escalating with Egypt, too.

The muslim brotherhood's military wing of lunatics must really want this to go nuclear.
If they want to target Jerusalem, and it seems they have, plus the thirty thousand IDF
reservist being readied for war, I wonder how long this will take to play out?

[mcurrier]

We're getting close folks. Israel ain't gonna sit around taking this crap for much longer. They have virtually zero allies. They gotta take care of their own, no one is running over there to help them, militarily or with their words. Add to that the UN attacking them every time they try and defend themselves. Then you've got Hamas putting their missile launching sites right next to a mosque and a school just in case the Israelis fire back.

Isn't it a shame that Israel can't conscript American Jews to fight for them...you know...such as the ones who voted to keep Obama in power.

I am not really afraid for Israel because I believe they can take care of themselves but I feel afraid and concerned for all who will suffer; especially since they wouldn't have to if the United States did the right thing and stood behind Israel (as opposed to doing everything to encourage Israel's enemies).

Here comes yet another Middle East war.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

I think they allow foreigners, maybe just Jews, don't know, to enlist in the IDF, Heard that, anyway.

The IDF Facebook page keeps everything updated pretty fast, I've been keeping up with it rcently:

Here's the latest video they posted: - I really like the guy pretending to be carried away from an injury of the IDF attacks, then he is seen walking around a few minutes later.

Wow! We just got a big "Thank You" from Iraq. Or was it a "blank You"? I am [u]not[/u] surprised. Spill American blood to save their asses and this is the thanks you get. Anyone want to spew that old talking point that it was "all about oil"?

Unfortunately the solution is to do things like the Keystone Pipeline and drilling here. If (which I highly doubt) that were to ever happen, it would be entertaining to see how long those countries tried to hold us hostage as 75% of their GDP completely disappeared.

Yes but they do not rely on our money as much as we do their oil.

So Morsi is going to visit and show support for Hamas and 'palestine'. WTF? Egypt has a peace treaty with Israel. So much for that. Not to mention that the U.S. gives Egypt $1.5 Billion each year in 'aid'. I say they can suck it without our $1.5 Billion.

Check out this whacko headline -

Israel 'offensive' ?!?!?! Last I heard, when someone shoots at you and you shoot back, that's called "defensive". Edited November 16, 2012 by mcurrier

Crowder has an interesting take. That's good!

maybe not this time, but I suspect one morning I will wake up and turn on the news and it will be WW3.

I've felt that way myself for some time now... Unfortunately, "I know not what weapons will will be fought with in WW3, but WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones". (Al Einstien)

I guess it's just a good thing that the worst sticks and stones can do is break my bones... Edited November 17, 2012 by TrickyNicky

Ahh how wonderful, Mid East countries overthrowing their brutal dictators taking their countries back in an Arab Spring. Great news for the world huh, everybody's so exiced and happy.

The REALITY of it all is that now these brutal dictators are replaced by groups of radical Isreal and western hating radicals. While I don't mourn Kadifi being dragged out of a ditch and killed I somehow think Libya was at least a little more stable, or more controlable with him and his regime in power than what they have now, same in Egypt, soon to be in Syria and Iraq and don't forget the nuclear power of Pakistan. At least these brutal dictators were not suicidal and wanted more than anything to stay in power which included NOT going to war with Isreal, now that they are gone these Bin Ladin worshipers who's ultimate goal is to kill Jews and Westerners and die and recieve 72 virgins in some kind of Islamic heaven are in control. Instead of 1 Iran we now have 4 going on 5 and 6 soon. Hate to say it but these 13th century people with 21st century technology are better off, and the world is better off with brutal dictators in power.

[Guest HvyMtl]

Hmm. Recent article I read had Egypt attempting to " de-escillate" the situation. Hope that report was right.
Really, Hamas reacted to one of their leaders being killed. Reality is, their shooting of rockets etc., may just lead to their own downfall. Poor move.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

Israel hasn't been provoking anyone. Israel has continuously been having to defend itself from someone since
their country's existence. Now they are surrounded by the "Brotherhood" and Hamas, as the Brotherhood's army
of fools is now the leading edge of Armegeddon. when Israel has to nuke in one direction, it will in many directions,
and it will still be defensive in my book.

They knew what they were doing when the placement sites were chosen. Therefore they deserve it.

By the way, the Iron Dome anti-missle batteries Israel is using? U.S. made, approved by the Obama Administration to be used by the Israelis

http://news.yahoo.com/levin-obama-deserves-credit-israels-iron-dome-103932890--politics.html

Kinda an odd move for a supposed Muslim President.

Looks like that thing works, and well. My hope is the Israelis give us the battle info, so we can use it to create even better anti-missle batteries in the future.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

My hope is that they survive not to have to go nuke. I'm confident we have info on that Dome.

That red line Israel has drawn is close. I would love to see the Brotherhood back down, but I doubt
that will happen.
