TEHRAN (Reuters) - The head of Iran's Revolutionary Guards said on Monday Israel would soon be destroyed by the "hands of Hezbollah", the Lebanese group which is backed by the Islamic Republic, Fars News Agency reported.

Guards commander-in-chief Mohammad Ali Jafari made the comment in a letter to Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah to offer condolences after the killing of senior guerrilla commander Imad Moughniyah in a car bomb last week in Damascus.

"In the near future, we will witness the destruction of the cancerous existence of Israel by the powerful and competent hands of the Hezbollah combatants", Jafari was quoted as saying...

Ever hear of the 10th Plague? Pharoah called God’s wrath down upon the first born of Egypt by his own words.

Iran is a part of earth like it or not, and blowing the top yard of dirt into space would leave a hole in the planet. This might not be an entirely positive development.

I was taught you deal with threats immediately. Especially threats to your own existence. I hope Israel has a plan and is ready to execute it.

Fill it with water and you have a nice big swimming pool. :)

Great. Now we have to find that much fresh water unless salt water would do the job. It’s another example of possible drawbacks to the plan.

We'll just call it another ocean. Imagine, an ocean without sharks.

Yeah but we can work out the kinks in the plan while it's filling if we want fresh water.

What’s wrong with salt water? We could call it the Iranian Sea.

Yeah, yeah. The Arabs are real good at this rhetoric. Of course, it turns up empty. How many times since 1947 have they threatened to drive the Jews into the sea?

That’s the whole problem. They never change their tune. The need to realize that Israel has a right to exist.

"I was taught you deal with threats immediately. Especially threats to your own existence. I hope Israel has a plan and is ready to execute it",p> Israels defense readiness plans are severly limited to restrained reaction by extreme liberal factions within israel.

Obviously , due to Israels strategic position, (geographically and diplomatically) restrained reaction amounts to doing nothing in defense.

Pre-emption is Israels only option, but is unilateral "diplomatic suicide" , like a pinned down queen in a losing chess game

“In the near future, we will witness the destruction of the cancerous existence of Israel by the powerful and competent hands of the Hezbollah combatants”, Jafari was quoted as saying”

Olmert’s weak hands have been strengthened by his hideous showing in the last Hezzbulah-Israeli confrontation. It certainly looks like the Hezzis are grievously miscalculating that Israel will be weak twice in a row. This probably will not be the case. So, watch for a an aggressive and skillful counter strike by Israel this next time...and then watch the hezzis, Damascus and Tehran cry to the UN about Israel’s defending itself.

God speed to Israel in mucking up the Hezzbolah scum.
