1,000 Russian paratroopers are also heading for Lebanon for UNIFIL, along with a 400 troop engineering battalion which is not part of UNIFIL.

An army of international troops including Chinese and Russians massing on the border of Israel!

Sounds like I need to dust off Revelation!

They may need to send 1,000 political commissars to make sure these guys don't wander off.

Ezekiel 39 is pretty pogniant, too.

Ezekiel 38:1-2 "And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; and I will turn you around and lead you on, bringing you up from the far north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel.

We are drawing close.

Sorry folks, missed the chapter reference. Here is the proper reference:
Ezekiel 38 39:1-2 "And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, 'Thus says the Lord God: "Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; and I will turn you around and lead you on, bringing you up from the far north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel.

I think it's just more of the "everything is a sign of the end of days" hysteria you see from time to time.

It will be interesting to see how they perform and geared up.

What would be nice is if China would send, say, 50,000 troops, take over all of southern Lebanon and keep everyone else out.

With that as a foot hold in the region, China should then send about 1,000,000 soldiers to take over and secure Iraq.

Seriously.

I know...it just amazes me that folks are so tuned into this end of the world crapola. I can understand how the biblical Jews saw the world coming to an end...but us 21 century Americans....come on...

Here, tell you what, you can take a look for yourself, and make an informed decision and call it as you see it: The 24th chapter of the Book of Matthew answers the very question "What are the signs of the end of the age?" It'll take you a couple of minutes to read it. Give it a quick read. If you don't see current events as fitting into this, that's fine. If you do, well, all the better.

The units are from Chinese Special Forces and Russian Spetsnaz. There are the crack units.

Isn't haiti a major drug transit? Then they probably accomplished what they were sent to do. Lebanon is a major route for drugs and weapons. I'm sure they'll keep things operating smoothly for themselves here, too.
