Somehow this one appears more ominous. Iran and Syria are feeling their oats.
no desire to be an eyewitness to great world events?
He sure does make them appear to be weak.
:)
If they wait till next summer and Netanyahu wins, that would put them at a disadvantage. When you strike another country is when you perceive them to be at their weakess. With Olmert, they have that to their advantage.
Want to really have fun, visit Isreal this summer with a trip to the north. That that would be a real adventure!
“The official warns that “Syria has the capability to fire ‘hundreds’ of missiles at Tel Aviv in the opening salvo of any conflict.”
“The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.” Isaiah 17:1
War is coming soon, IMHO. Lebanon on the brink: http://astuteblogger.blogspot.com/2007/07/lebanon-on-brink.html
I believe that as well.
The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap. Isaiah 17:1
And that can come to pass none too soon for me.
combine that with the over extension of a embattered and weak US of A!
Didn’t Pat Robertson make a prediction back in January about something happening in the late summer of this year?
When General Lugar is sounding like General Murtha we are in deep merde.
I went searching for an article and couldn’t find it. My search skills suck I must admit.
This is what the muzzies see. A overextended and worn down US of A. Thus, no better time to attack. Their perceived probabilities of success are at an all time high!
Shes gonna get hot out there under that summer sun!!
Did these analysts consider the IDF flyby performed outside Assad's office window? Perhaps Assad just wants to do something, anything, as a way to ask for another flyby, perhaps more potent.

Next time they do a flyby they should have his picture painted on it.
Assad's thinking is that the world will be so relieved that Syria and Israel are NOT at war, that they'll be relieved an allow Syria to keep Lebanon.
The recent kerfluffle in Tripoli, with the Lebanese Army destroying Fatah al-Islam was just a test. This is similar to what the al Qaeda types are doing at the Red Mosque in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan. Musharef has got to the point, where he's publicly said to the jihadists 'surrender or die'.
However, I believe syria is irans proxy in this, hoping to draw Israel into the fray.

Are they all dead yet or are they still holed up in the mosque? Musharef is on a razors edge with this situation. It's been dragged out for far too long. imho
“Ross added that the Bush administration should aim to “squeeze the Syrian economy” by using “sticks before carrots” in dealing with Damascus.”
Unfortunately, elements at State and the Pentagon have done a 360 by adopting the James Baker school of diplomacy to ensure their qualifying for and participation in the Saudi retirement fund...happens all the time just before every presidential administration draws to a close. The effect since ‘56 is the continued appeasement and enablement of the forces of darkness while preventing Israel to win and thereby leaving her hanging out to dry.
Thanks.
