As always, Israel takes out military targets while the muslims fire indiscriminately into civilian areas. At the same time the u.n. tries to blame Israel for the conflict.

Iran obviously seems to be coordinating attacks using proxys on Israel. The United States should do the same with Israel.

Israel knows they are the target for nuclear weapons Iran is developing (duh). An excellent way to deal with Iran is to give Israel the weapons and equipment it needs to deal with Iran.

An easy solution for the United States – use OUR proxy to decimate Iran and the only thing we need to do is to provide the weapons – just as the Iranians are doing with Islamic terror groups.

What an opportunity!

Wonder if plans are in order for the Israelis to strike the Iranians
Or at the very least if the Mossad has the targeting information to hit the large contingent of Iranian soldiers in Southern Lebanon

Sign That Crisis Is Regional, Not Just Israel vs. Palestinians…

Even the New York Times has figured out that Iran is pulling the strings on the hezbollah puppets: Iran’s president has famously denied the Holocaust and made countless provocative statements about Israel. But even before his election, Iran committed…

With all of the turmoil currently escalating in, around, and against, Israel, I thought that I would re-post the fact that we are seeing Biblical prophecy occuring right before our eyes today! In my former post We Are Witnessing Biblical Prophecy, I shared some Bible verses from Psalms 83:2-8 which were inspired by God and written down by David three thousand years ago! The prediction was that the reborn nation of Israel would be immediately surrounded by enemies, including the Arab nations of Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria. Talkwisdom

DING-DING-DING! Round three begins.

Giving the palis Gaza was a good strategic move. Seperate them from Israelis and make it easier to fight them geographically.

MSNBC is using the term WW3. I don’t know ’bout that but it will be Israeli asswhoppin’ 3. Muslims never learn.

Update: At Lebanon’s request, the Security Council will hold an emergency session for tomorrow.

LOL!!! I’m sorry but this statement has some strong unintentional comedy laced in (as any request for U.N. involvement these day).

Hezbollah Fires Rockets At Haifa…

In the meantime Hezbollah seems to be trying to move the kidnapped soldiers to Iran. If they will succeed, Israel has no choice but to attack Iran as well. That would mean a complete escalation and, may I add, the end of the regime of the Ayatollahs in…

If you want to understand the position of hezbollah in Lebanon, just imagine what it would have been like in the U.S. if the Confederate States had “rejoined” the Union after several years of a bloody civil war, had maintained a separate army, had maintained their slavery, had maintained exclusive control over their territory, and had sent their Representatives and Senators back to Washington to make sure that the federal government didn’t do anything they disapproved of, while taking money and orders from the French government and conducting military operations against Mexico.

Great reporting as usual Allahpundit. Keep it coming.

Also, your thoughts concerning Iran are most likely dead-on. Iran should be careful what it wishes for, in my opinion.

Rockets Strike Haifa…

As all the world now knows, rockets launched – presumably by Hezbollah from Lebanon – have hit Israel for the first time. What is less known is that the Hezbollah leadership is denying responsibility for it. Hizbullah Denies It Hit……
