Iran's Day of Terror? (8/22 also discussed on Fox News today)

This August 22nd? "Certainly a nuclear attack on Jerusalem or even an all-out conventional assault against Israel by Iran would be consistent with Ahmadinejad’s oft-repeated denials of Israel’s right to exist and recent predictions that its demise was at hand. He hinted at the use of nuclear weapons in his phrasing when he said that Israel “pushed the button of its own destruction” by finally retaliating against Hizballah’s relentless rocket barrage from south Lebanon." Robert Spencer

Fox News had a (face blacked out) interview with an ex-terrorist and he brought up this August 22nd date.

I'm guess Western Officials (as described in this article) have been a bit busy and haven't spent one second being frustrated. Maybe the 'Must Have an Answer Right Now' media is frustrated, but, who cares?

Achmed stalling is not news. This 8/22 drumbeat is starting to sound a lot like the Y2K stuff. Should be interesting.

Well you never know... the Brits might have just rained on that parade.

Imagine him 'responding' to our demands to stop producing nukes a few days after all these planes were blown up.

Dream on...

Let's hope it's nothing...

....does anyone else think the recent airline plot that was foiled was suppose to be the 8/22 event? The fact that "dry runs" were not ran and that the command to "go now" was because they knew MI 5 and the CIA were closing in?
Just trying to connect recent events together

The Night Journey, or Miraj,

Pronounced like "mirage".

The planes were evidently supposed to be brought down on August 16th (at least that's what I read in a British paper as to the dates the tickets were for.)

I remembered the date because my son and husband are flying on the 16th to Calgary, and I told my hubby if the plot had succeeded that would have been the end of their vacation. Planes would have been grounded, as after 9/11, and they would be stuck in "who knows where."

Iran is ready to do this. They have been throwing hints out for the last 2 years...solid, vocal, blunt threats. They will eventually be at war with whoever goes to take the country's nuclear sites...and the only country that has balls to do that in the world is Israel.

They have done it before in Iraq and could care less what the UN or the world had to say...and they are doing it against Hezzbolah. Israel will not sit back...the Mossad is more informed than our CIA, FBI, and NSA combined on their best day.

Iran WILL try something and soon...will it be on 8-22? Who knows...prolly doubtful....but you can bet that Iran's President want's to go down in history as the man who killed the biggest amount of jews since Hitler.

My guess it it was a distraction from the main event. The airliners had nothing to do with Jerusalem.

[callthemlikeyouseethem]

i regret to say that I, probably like many others, didn't see the need to learn about this hateful, deadly group until just recently...

with the luxury of time, many hours of research, I am literally sickened by what I know that I didn't 2 weeks ago...

[bert]

The point is to liberate not eliminate Jerusalem.

The attack will be on Tel Aviv and Haifa.

The 'dry-run' on 10 jets was foiled... but that's not to say that other 'dry-runs' were pulled off successfully. The jets were supposed to go down on the 16th... lets keep our fingers crossed that there's nothing else in store.

[callthemlikeyouseethem]

there are a lot of pro-hez rallies being held today, lets hope the FReepers out there in counter demonstrations will get as many pics as possible and share them here...

I haven't found any pics of the pro-hez rallies held in Dearborn

Ah, see there is an attitude that a lot of people have that needs to be changed. All these "unrelated" events have one common thread; world wide jihad, with the goal of a global caliphate and the destruction of Israel. Now, I am not saying that Iran was pulling the strings. What I am saying is that they are all tied together with the strings of islamic fascism flowing out of Wahhabism and Iran. Until we deal with the underlying cause, this kind of thing will continue to happen on a regular basis.

I had a mischevious idea this morning. It might be fun to find out that the mahdi is supposed to look like and then get some Elvis impersonator types to start showing up to the excitement of the faithful. Or we could create the illusion of such with Reuters photographers and publish sightings of the mahdi. I don't know how to get around the expectation that he comes out of a certain well, however.

Interesting that August 22nd in the Roman Catholic liturgical calendar is the Feast of the Queenship of Mary. Catholics believe that she is the woman in the book of Revelation whose foot rests on the head of the serpent and is the new Eve.

This is an interesting juxtaposition of two beliefs for me, at least. Let us see the outcome!

"these "unrelated" events have one common thread; world wide jihad, with the goal of a global caliphate and the destruction of Israel."

then, they're going after the "great satan"...:|

[Izzy Dunne]

What I meant was that the airliners blowing up wouldn't have been a light in the sky above Jerusalem.

Of course, they're all connected to Islamism, I'm not stupid.
