If the article has truth to it, the war against Magog has begun.
The US has forces in Georgia. I read an article about the the Georgian Natl Guard and SOCOM being there.
The suggestions of the Russophiles here that Russia and the US or Israel will soon be best buddies flies into the face of the facts.
Considering pressure that US puts on Israel to give up land to Arabs
That has just as much to do with the Israelis own leadership as with the US. Olmert, Kadima, Labor, yes even Sharon gave up land to the Arabs and continue to do so. The US-Israeli alliance vs. Iran and it's masters won't break because of that. Of course I agree that the giveaway has to stop. But Russia doesn't come into this equation.
I doubt it -- the Russians are helping the Iranians.
And US is supporting all kind of Muslim garbage, all the same for Israel.
The Russians have entrenched themselves firmly on the side of Iran, Syria, North Korea, Venezuela and “organisations” like Hezbollah and Hamas. If the Russians want to approach the US/Israel they should first get out of the terrorist swamp in which the are stuck up to their ears.
How much oil does Israel have? None? Then Russia won’t be interested. Russia is too busy developing Iran’s nuclear weapons program.
I doubt it also...uh, what allegiance would they have to Russia who persecuted millions of Jews! Russia, unlike Georgia, has a long long long history of anti-Semitism!
Email that Russia has just bombed the main Georgian airbase, possibly where some U.S. forces and equipment are stationed [unverified!!!]
2 things come to mind:
1) Israel now is paying back the Russkies for all of those years when it had “advisors” helping the Arabs, and arming them to the teeth. While I don’t like to see a war, as long as one has started I hope that the Russkies bleed a bit.
2) This is going to shift the attention of the Russkies away from Iran for a while.
Neither of these are bad things.
No way. Russians hate Jews too much for that. Of course, they also hate every other group that isn’t Russian.
I understand what you are saying, but why would Israel get involved. Sorry if I am just ignorant.
Did I say it first?
Let's face it. The cooperation of the US with primarily scum in Saudi Arabia and Fatah draws no ire from Israel as it is a "peculiar cooperation" versus Iran and due to the fact that the alternatives (Al-Qaeda in SA and Hamas in PA) are considered worse by both the US and Israel.
The other Muslim trash the US is backing is in the Balkans. This is only of secondary interest to the Israelis, who did raise objections to the NATO war vs. Serbia (we all remember Sharon's quote), but the wrong US policy on the Balkans (we shoud have stayed out) is obviously not as dire as the open and blatant support of Russia for Iran and it's terrorist proxies who are hellbent on eradicating Israel.
While I don’t like to see a war, as long as one has started I hope that the Russkies bleed a bit. .............. The Russian Army lacks “Das Wille”. They are also not as strong (large) as they were in the 50’s and 60’s. They have a great defensive arsenal but they aren’t ready for a drawn out campaign where they can’t use their nukes.
You'll find that in every major occidental nation Jews are well represented in science. It says nothing about the state's policies towards Israel. Czarist Russia and Imperial Germany, also the France at fin-de-siecle were highly antisemitic yet had many Jews in science and academia. What does it tell us?
I have a bad feeling about this...
Things could spiral out of control real easy.
