Does any one think this is going to blow up, or do you think it will simmer down? Personally, I am suspicious that Isreal is over reacting to this in order to flare up a regional conflict and pull us into a mess that ultimately has us attacking Iranian nuclear facilities...

I'm afraid regional may be not be the worst-case scenario.

The two missiles fired at Haifa, the 3rd largest city in Israel which is 40 km's from the border, will probably result in Israeli forces shutting down all powers to Beirut and blacking out the Lebanon capital.

Very sad that the events took a turn like this, but while there are justify criticism of Israeli policies twords Gaza, there is seriously nothing Israel could have done differently in Lebanon and every other nation would have reacted in the same way.

do you really think israel will cut off beirut's power?

i doubt that every other nation would do that

[/ QUOTE ]

You're right, most nations would do far worse.

Arabs = Stupidity
If a 5'0' 90 lb man walks up to Mike Tyson, spits in his face, calls him a n*****, and then sucker punches him. Would you say this man is smart or an idiot? The Arab actions towards Israel are analogous to that 90 lb man. The Arabs keep picking fights with Israel and when israel responds with overwhelming force the Arabs start crying and ask the UN to step in.

The USA has applied enormous pressure on Israel to force the Jews to make concessions and everytime a deal is made...the Arabs welch on their end of the bargain. Arab leaders are lying dishonest irrational scum and they can't be trusted. Israel needs to:
(1) Bomb Iranian Oil fields to eliminate the financial sources of terrorism. Yes this would temporarily mean $100/ barrel oil but perhaps this would cause the collapse of the theocracy in Iran.
(2) Ethnic cleanse Gaza and the West Bank of Arabs and dump them into Jordan. Build Jewish settlements in Gaza and the West Bank and keep that land forever-and-ever.
(3) Finish building the security wall around all of Israel.
(4) Flip off the UN and disengage from all uncivilized Arab regimes.

Thank you.

This thing might be heating up. I just saw on the news that the missle that hit Hafia was fired by Iranian gaurd units (says Israel).

If this turns out to be true, does this mean war between Israel and Iran?

yea, seriously, what a great outlook on the world.

What? The conservatives have no use for the poor here in america, claiming the rich have to give them a free ride.
They're tired of all the social programs that they have to finance.
Well, I'm tired of our govt having to intervene and spend their energies trying to get the heathens in these 3rd world countries to stop fighting. Let em go at it.

It's no skin off the backs of conservatives if the inner city youth in the ghetto gets an education that pales in comparison to what is available in the more affluent neighborhoods, and I could give a rat's ass about a 3rd world nation. No matter what they call their god. I don't discriminate.
It amazes me how people can fight over religion. A study of the murders committed in the name of the Catholic religion should be enough to convince anyone that the whole theology is junk.

I honestly think Nasralla and his organization scared themselves with that rocket hitting Haifa and this is the major reason why he denied firing it in the first place.

[/ QUOTE ]

Aren't these organizations notorious for not having a solid command structure? Seems very likely that some moron grunt (or whatever their rank would be) may have got excited and launched without even talking to his superiors.

This may very likely be true, but it doesn't change at all the necessity of Israel's response. If anything, the lack of any command structure makes this group more of a threat to Israel. If Lebanon can't reign in this group, than Israel has to.

I deleted one of your posts from this thread as it had a link to an anti-Semtiic website.



Was it an illegal site?

I suspect Hezbolla was ordered by Iran to snatch the soldiers in order to provoke a response from Isreal. The purpose is to deflect attention away from the current situation with the Iranians.

I have a feeling its going to backfire for Iran. Isreal knows a conflict with Iran is inevitable. The Isrealies are probably thinking that its better the conflict occurs sooner rather than later. The Isrealies will keep pushing this issue until the conflict with Iran ignites. Its possible this time next year there won't be a Tehran.
