(12:55) Hizbullah attack on northern border

Hizbullah began shelling IDF outposts in the Har Dov area on the northern border a short time ago.

There are no reports of injuries to army forces.

Hizbullah fired several volleys in the combined misile and mortar attack, Israel Radio reports.

IDF artillery is returning fire.

Helicopters are circling the area.

This is the second attack against IDF forces in the vicinity of Har Dov in the last two weeks.

The entire length of the northern border is under a high state of alert for possible attacks against civilians.

IDF Deputy Chief of General Staff Maj.-Gen. Moshe Ya'alon warned yesterday that any Hizbullah attack against civilians could lead to a full-scale war with Syria, according to Army Radio.

One day we will see the world supplicating Israel to help it with the problem of terrorism. It has already happened after the WTC disaster with our own fag filled CIA begging the Mossad after it got screwed deep and hard by their arab "informants" of arab lands.

"We keep waiting for israel to defend herself, and the state department keeps telling her she can't. When will they untie the hands and allow Israel to do what it must?"

I have a feeling that what's going on is that we're publicly saying "don't do it", and discretely giving them the opposite message through backchannels. Then, when they do take care of the countries that we "can't" tackle (for "diplomatic" reasons), we can wring our hands, shed a crocodile tear or two, and say how sad we are that the peace process wasn't allowed to continue, blah blah blah.

Man, did you hit the nail on the head. Everyone keeps saying, "but what did Israel ever do for us?"
It gags me everytime I see it. Why do people, who are otherwise reasonably intelligent go completely bonkers when it comes to Israel? I was going to post this yesterday, but I didn't for some reason. Gonna post it here.

LOS ANGELES, Oct 18, 2001 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Bringing Israeli experts here to help Americans learn how to protect themselves against terrorism is the focus of Dary Rees' business, Israel Security Services Corp.

According to Ms. Rees her group of security experts in Israel have developed a way to secure buildings and malls from any attack including suicide bombers, chemical and biological attack/war and bombs and they intend to bring this knowledge to America.

Born in Israeli Dary Rees grew up understanding and living with the daily threat of terrorism. Today she is bringing her knowledge and the expertise of other Israeli's to the United States to help Americans deal with the current terrorist attacks and threats.

Israel Security Services Corp. focuses on bringing former "Mossad" or Israeli Intelligence officials, from Israel to America to train corporations and security organizations how to better deal with, and be alert for, terrorist activities.

"It's not enough to simply put more guards on duty or expect that traditional security measures will work. As the U.S. experienced on September 11th, terrorists are unpredictable. Their goal is to kill as many Americans as possible and to perpetuate fear. They don't care about dying in the process. So this is not the traditional enemy. Security experts in the United States must gain assistance from those who have lived with this every day and that's why I am bringing these professionals to America," stated Ms. Rees.

Experts will work with corporations, government agencies and security organizations and focus on building security as well as computer and technology security. "Understanding how to develop and control 'security belts' in and around a building is critical to the building and its occupants' safety. We intend to show corporations exactly how to do this effectively," states Ms. Rees.

Born in Ramat-gan Israel, Dary Rees served in the Israeli army as a secretary for the minister of finance and then as a sergeant in education and was active in the 1981 Lebanon war. Her father was an officer in the paratroopers and one of the first to enter Jerusalem in the 1967 war.

I didn't correct the spelling or punctuation in this article. It is exactly the way it was printed in a business daily. Good thing so many Freepers do the homeschool thang. and and and, well, and....

While all the world is losing its mind, Israel comes up with:

(Oh, my goodness. Another first for those silly Jews who still haven't gotten the message that they are too stupid to do anything on their own, let alone do it first...again. Aren't they aware that they must take to the streets and live like beggars to please the world of Fred25s and Documentary Laddies?
Well, just shame on them. Don't they know they are just a Third World country who had to have Jonathan Pollard steal all of the US technology to keep them from being cave dwelling mutants?
And practical too, by gum. Hmmm?)

Blue Square-Israel Introduces Worldwide Innovation: The 'Smart' Shopping Cart --

Blue Square's 'First' Uses Cutting-Edge Technology to Serve the Customer -

Story Filed: Thursday, October 11, 2001 8:53 AM EST

ROSH HA'AYIN, Israel, Oct 11, 2001 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Blue Square-Israel Ltd. (NYSE: BSI) is proud to announce a technological breakthrough: a "smart" shopping cart that eliminates the need for checkout lines. Invented by Buy Pass Ltd., an Israeli startup, Blue Square is now preparing to deploy smart shopping carts throughout its branches.

Commenting on the announcement, Yoram Dar, Blue Square's President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "This cutting-edge technology, which we are implementing for the first time anywhere, will lead to a true revolution in retail culture. The fundamental concept behind the Smart Cart is simple and focused: to enable the greatest possible shopping convenience by eliminating checkout lines. The entire Smart Cart system is user friendly and easy to operate."

The Next Revolution in Retailing

This world-first is based on the patented "Smart Shopping Cart" technology developed entirely from the point-of-view of the consumer's convenience by an Israeli company. The technology enables each consumer to shop normally, staying informed continuously as to the running total of his purchases, and receiving immediate notification of special offers. The system allows for all normal shopping activities, including returning items to the shelf as the shopper makes a final decision as to whether to purchase an item.

In contrast to smart cart systems invented in the past, this technology is based on a smart computer terminal and scanner installed within the cart itself. It is extremely easy to learn and operate. The screen displays a list of all of the cart's contents, along with a running total of purchases made so far.

The net result is the industry's easiest, most convenient shopping experience. Starting now, the Israeli shopping experience will become much quicker, more efficient, and more pleasurable.

This is the real world in Israel. A third world country, she ain't. Note that the CEOs of both these companies are female. Another reason for Islam to hate.

This is why the Golan Heights are important to Israel's security. These are high grounds which are prime sites to shell the Israeli cities below.

Anyone can see that except the "Arabist" geniuses in the US State Department.
