Can God contradict Himself?
That's all I need to know about you.
Inshallah!
Israel has a great deal of experience in dealing with the various factions in the region. They won't fall for any traps.
"IT'S GOD'S WILL!"
Isn't that true?
No, it is not (although some think that). A sounder theological rendition is that bad things happen because the world became flawed when man rebelled against God. God can stop bad things from happening, but sinful man is in no moral position to demand that, and has no power to compel God.
Dennis Ross was on with Bill O'Reilly, on his talk show...and said that the day the Israeli soldiers were kidnapped by Hezbollah..was the same day that Iran was supposed to give an answer to the UN...so he thinks..
That UN sent them to Israel..to start a major war..to distract the Americans and hopefully to descimate their military...so that Iran can then swoop in and take Iraq, AND Israel...and then of course, the whole world.
That is why it would seem logical to me that Iran may be wanting the soldiers...since they are calling the shots.
If I were Bush...I wouldn't waste any time with the UN...try NATO..if they don't want to help...then do whatever else is necessary..because Iran's ultimate goal (besides getting rid of all the Jews)...is to take America DOWN...
And we KNOW that that is the same goal of Russia and China, so they will NEVER agree to go against Iran...just like they didn't go against Iraq.
Right now would be a perfect time for that to happen, wouldn't it? Bush at the G8 Summit. All attention is focused on Israel. Iran may be holding 2 hostages.
The MSM has fully wedded with the islamists.
Recently translated documents show that procurement of uranium tubes could be used for enrichment of uranium.

Breaking: Captured Soldiers Heading for Iran?
By Julie Stahl

July 13, 2006
(CNSNews.com) - Israel says it has learned that the Lebanese-based Hizballah intends to transfer the two Israeli soldiers it abducted on Wednesday to Iran. That word came today from a senior official in Israel's Foreign Ministry.
Israel is now linking Iran, Syria, Hizballah and Hamas all together in what it calls an "axis of terror and hate" that threatens the entire world.
Hizballah threatened on Thursday to hit the Israeli coastal city of Haifa with Katyusha rockets. With more than 270,000 residents, Haifa is Israel's third largest city and its main seaport. More than 80 rockets hit northern Israeli communities on Thursday, killing two women and wounding dozens of others.
Initially, Israel said it was holding Lebanon responsible for the Hizballah attack that opened a new front in the war on Wednesday. Hizballah fired rockets at Israel, killed eight Israeli soldiers in cross-border attacks, and abducted two other soldiers.
Now Israeli officials are saying that Lebanon is not the only responsible party - Syria and Iran are also involved. (President Bush on Thursday said his main concern is the "fragile democracy" in Lebanon, which the U.S. has done so much to encourage, and he urged Israel to use restraint.)
Iran is so involved that Hizballah is planning to transfer the two Israeli captives to that nation, Foreign Ministry Deputy Director-General for Public Affairs Gideon Meir said on Thursday.
"We also have specific information that Hizballah is planning to transfer the kidnapped soldiers to Iran," Meir told journalists in Jerusalem.
Iran is playing a dangerous game, and one they won't win.
Just a thought.
Casualties are 1000X too low for this to be an actual WW.
Israeli intelligence is considered some of the best in the world.
and you are even refusing to acknowledge that such people can and do exist - Plame and Wilson aren't enough for you, to serve as examples?
When are the people of world going to wake up to the fact that practically every armed conflict going on right now is about Muslims attacking Non-Muslims? Hellloooooo?
What the heck is your problem. I've posted the article from the Israeli official who stated he has intel that soldiers will be taken to Iran.
you wouldn't be satified until you saw video of them coming off a plane in Tehran.
The Lebanese people need help obviously to get rid of these thugs....the same for the Palestinians. I think the US will stand back and wait and see and let Israel fight it's battle until it looks like they may lose and then step in. There is no need for us to get involved militarily until there is no choice.
I agree, Iran and Syria want this. They are taking a huge risk here.
