Well, this certainly ups the ante . . . if/when Israel and Hezbollah lock horns again, we may have ourselves a full blown regional war

Israel: 1) threatens to launch immediate (fast and devastating) retaliation against Syria in event of Hezbollah attack

2) considers Hezbollah a division of the Syrian army

3) will target Syrian infrastructure

Best to get the ports before the Russians establish their naval bases there...they are hurrying.

It could also serve as further justification for Israel to knock out Iran’s nuclear reactors, as Hezbollah is to Iran as Al Qaeda was to Afghanistan pre 9/11

Hmmm....
“The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from [being] a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.”

Russian scuds, eh - given to them by Lebanon - would those be from the truck loads of Sadam’s weapons that were truck-trained from Iraq just before the war broke out - the ones that were buried in the Bekaa Valley - the non-existant ones?

““We’ll return Syria to the Stone Age ...”that is the ONLY way to do it. No more ‘limited’ wars. Israel cannot get bogged down in a protracted operation. Iran would take advantage of that. It really wouldn't take much to wipe tiny Israel off the map.

I'm for Israel doing whatever it has to do.

Why is Israel doing this...& doing it publicly as well? Syria will now be able to prepare for what may be a “devestating” retaliatory strike by Israel.

I have my doubts as to how “devestating” the Israelis will be if they strike nack....probably a 6 on a 10 scale (w/ nuclear weapons turning Damascus into a modern-day Hiroshima as a 10), & definitely (IMO), NOT severely enough! When will Israel take the gloves off & KILL THE ENEMY???

Isaiah 17:1 says “The oracle concerning Damascus. “Behold, Damascus is about to be removed from being a city, And will become a fallen ruin.” We may just see that prophecy come to pass very soon. I’d watch it if I were Syria.

The ante was “upped” a long time ago!

Isaiah 17:1 - Woe to Damascus. It has been taken away from being a city it has become a ruinous heap.

Only a nuke could do that kind of damage.

Dang for years I've read Ezekial 38-39, Isaiah 17 and other prophecies to come and now with America under attack from the inside I see or can envision why we're not on the biblical stage, and just how close Damascus will be no more.

As for Magog, they have an ally in Persia....it's exciting and scary that we may just witness all of this should the Lord tarry a bit more. All in His time, all in His time.

What do you mean by regional war?

Egypt will stay out, Jordan will stay out and crackdown on its Palestinians, Iraq will send troops to the Syrian border to keep their civilians out, Iran isn’t ready for a fight yet and will just shout a lot.

Syria’s problem is that they have one client they can’t control and no friends. Everyone knows where those missiles came from so other then some loud talking (if that) no one is going to help Syria fight Israel.

“We’ll return Syria to the Stone Age by crippling its power stations, ports, fuel storage and every bit of strategic infrastructure if Hezbollah dare to launch ballistic missiles against us,”

Those in power in Iran and the pali movement are counting on it. Think how the worlds (ie: UN etc) be able to use that against Israel?

Now they make Israel really look like the monsters all of Islam wishes Israel to be. Reason to launch a major attack against Isreal and/or excuse any attack they (the muzzi dogs will take.

Israel has delivered a secret warning to Syrian President Bashar Assad

Not so secret, apparently. But it was a message that needed to be deliverred.
