Israeli Channel 1 showing the morning attacks....more rocket impacts.

Did Al Hayat say when Israel gave them the ultimatum?

...or else Israel may strike targets Syria (added from article).



If accurate, that's a big deal.

Remember early reports are often wrong, and we only have an Arab source for this.

If true, then I agree Israel will be hitting Syria by Monday, Iran will be involved almost instantly, and unless Iran exercises extreme restraint, America will be at war due to attacks on Coalition troops in Iraq, within a week, maybe much sooner.

In this article. Bush is quoted as stopping one tiny step short of saying that Iran and Syria engineered this whole situation, but he does not resolve a critical question, "Does the Axis of Evil plan to go big, or just make some noise to get off lightly in the UNSC?"

Stay tuned...this is trending in an escalating direction.
