Dark clouds gathering to my west as I type, so if I disappear, I didn't wish for 'lightening'.....YeOuch!!!
I think the Pope sees that too, but there are many Christians and non fundamental muslims in Lebanon.
I am actually all for this war. I would rather the pot be brought to a full boil than lull the west to sleep (and kill it) with a slow simmer.
as long as it doesn't goe nucular
Well, that's all the rub, in't it? With an unpredictable muslim crazy man leading a proto-nuclear power in the ME, can Israel affor NOT to take -- perhaps very drastic -- proactive measures?
Who can read the mind of that self-important crow, Imasmellycod?
It's a dicey situation from any angle.
I hope not. I am pro Bush but I have to say he did not expect the current events when he liberated Iraq. Bush said the world will be a safer place with Saddam removed from power. Well he was wrong. May God help everyone.
there you go again!!!!
Very astute, IMO.
This is going to sound extreme, but I just finished my second very strong margarita, so my inhibitions have gone flying out the window . . . I hope that it does go nuclear. Before you flame me, let me explain my reasoning. I hope the Palestinians or Hezbollah use a dirty bomb. Why? Because then the Israelis can respond with nuclear force without being handcuffed by "world opinion." I believe that these terrorists have to be annhilated. They are evil. Period. Exclamation point. This is a religious war, whether anyone wants to admit it or not. The very survival of civilization depends on the outcome of this struggle. Thus, the sooner that the handcuffs of "world opinion" are loosed from the Israelis, the sooner the ultimate resolution of this epic struggle can be realized. OK, have at me. Like I said, I've had two very strong margaritas, so I can handle what you all throw at me.
Sodano was JPII's Secy of State and has been a leftist since day one. This is typical of his statements for the past many years, but is actually better than most because he actually acknowleged terrorism as a cause. For him, he was pretty moderate in his statement. Sodano is being retired by the new Pope Benedict and being replaced in September, btw. Obviously, not soon enough
Huh?? No one expected the current events. Did you.
No. He was right. Where do you think we would be if we had not ousted him? For starters we wouldn't have our presence right smack between Siria and Iran.
where did you get a copy of the plan?
Well I just finished my second strong bong hit, and I agree.
I'm gonna throw you some lime and salt. That said, I'll have to think for awhile to send you an appropriate response.
Only if someone brings up illegal immigration.
Oops.
Don't go kidding me now.....LOL
Isaiah 17 fortells that Damascus will be laid to a ruiness heap overnight, never to be a city again.
Damascus is the worlds oldest city. Since it's founding it has ALWAYS been there. Damascus is home to the terrorists organiztions Israel is seeking to root out and destroy, Hamas AND Hezbollah.
During the opening rounds of this war one of Israels first targets were the main road and supply line from Damascus Syria to Beirut Lebanon.
Iran keeps warning Israel NOT to hit Syria almost as if to taunt them to a dare. Iran has also said that IF Syria is attacked that it will unite the muslim world.
Well, at some point, as per biblical prophecy, Iran with all the other nations that surround Israel minus Syria, will come against them.
This is the Gog/Magog alliance.
Things are undeniably playing out EXACTLY as it was foretold it would. ARE YOU READY?
Read Ezekiel 38 and you'll see exactly what's happening.
Brilliant!
