How is that not fantastic news?

Because if Syria attacks Israel, then the entire Middle East is going to be at war. Open war is often necessary, and it is certainly coming, but that doesn't mean that I have to clap my hands with glee when it occurs.

If Syria attacks Israel, then Iran will attack Iraq, and us, to try to keep us from joining the battle. Jordan will have to make a decision, and I doubt it will be to our liking. I also doubt that Egypt will be able to stay out of it.

Also would Turkey get involved?? Yes, this could be a prelude to rid western influence in the area.

I fear in that case Iraq would join forces with Syrian and Jordan. They have no love for Israel, and our guys would be in deep. Of course it wouldn't be the first "March of the 10,000" in that part of the world. :)

I think we should make the first move. It will be blamed on us regardless. Nuclear bunker busters for Iran's nuclear program and much more if we must. I still believe that a demonstration of what a 100 megaton device can do will do wonders for those that want to live..It can be demonstarted in remote area still visable to those that need to see it. Be sure to stare at the white light for as long as you can.

P.S. Here's a preview of the outcome.

I for one will be THRILLED. We have to do what we have to do to end this - or knock them back several decades. It is them or us? Which do you want?

I am all for all out war. The time has come to bring this crap to an end.

If Syria is THAT connected to Iran and we know things with Iran will come to a head regarding nukes and their terror connections, then all they may be doing is start a war on their terms instead of Israels or ours.

Over extending forces would be the goal I would guess.

Nonsense. An all out war is necessary and inevitable. The sooner the better when you consider all the facts on the ground. Syria and Iran are not prepared for this all out war now. Thanks to their inability to read the cards Israel's response was a surprise to them. We need to fight them now. I just pray that they make one offensive move so that there will be reason for a response the world has never imagined.
