He will do it—I feel it in my bones. Saddam’s revenge. He will used them to keep back an invasion and to decimate the rebels. He may well send rockets into Israel just to start a war—and gain Egyptian Help. The Rebels hate Israel worse than Assad—and would join him in his Jihad against them! Hezballa, Hamas, Egypt, Iran would get into it too! He could blame Israel for arming the rebels—If US gets involved—gas the US ships too! Terrorists could hit bases in the gulf and Europe. WW III hits on December 21st!
Assad will not attack Israel, because if he did,
Assad and his family would
be attacked personally.
