ISRAEL: IRAN BOOSTS WEAPON SHIPMENTS TO HAMAS, HEZBOLLAH IN EXPECTATION OF LIFTED SANCTIONS
Breitbart ^ | April 13, 2015 | by WILLIAM BIGELOW

Posted on 04/14/2015 1:51:10 AM PDT by Jim Robinson

On Monday, Israeli officials reported that Iran has upped its delivery of weapons to the Lebanese Shiite terror group Hezbollah in the past few weeks. Channel 2 stated that the shipments have been made to both Lebanon and the Syrian side of the Golan Heights.

In addition, the report stated that Iran was sending weapons to Hamas chiefs in Gaza and arming Hamas members in Judea and Samaria.

Channel 2 asserted that the ease in sanctions on Iran from the present nuclear negotiations would allow it to spend “billions of dollars” shipping weapons to Israel’s enemies.

The increase in Iranian arms shipments coincides with Monday’s announcement that Russia will reverse an earlier ban and send S-300 missile defense systems to Iran. Israel is concerned Iran will transfer the systems to Lebanon and Syria, allowing Hezbollah to attack Israel with impunity and imperiling Israel’s ability to strike back.

It would have been a much better world had America invaded Iran when our embassy was taken over. Think how much better it would have been with a democratic Iran today.

I say, better late than never. We must finish the job Jimmy Carter left undone now when it is easier, or we will have to do it later when it will be much more costly.

Obama’s thoughtful enough to leave America destitute and surrounded by foes. He’s simply following the great Democratic President example.

” This piece of rat filth is going to start a war that’s going to get millions killed,”

Many of us know this. The real question is how Bibi can figure out how to handle the short term situation.

I have a feeling we'll eventually get some really nifty fireworks shows out of the deal.

Those S-300 units are big. There’s no hiding them under a camel tent. Not to mention they need service trucks so the whole clusterflock makes a really neat target when placed in a country smaller than, oh, say, Russia. And they are defenseless when they are moving. Yup. Go ahead pootin. Send them south so we can tell where the targets are.

What have we here!? A Nation, Israel being thrown to the wolves because our Congress is afraid to impeach a ringer from the presidency ‘cause minorities, and Democrats (redundant) won’t like them!?

Our own Nation imperiled, but we don’t impeach, and remove the imperilor (made that one up) because minorities, and Democrats won’t like them!?

The list goes on, but I’d say the better option is impeach, and remove the bastard. That would at least show the Democrats we mean business, we really do want our country, cause the Democrats no end of grief, and cause them to rein in ol’ slow Joe to at least tread water until 2016. Granted they would throw all the money their constituents have saying bad things about the Republicans, but I think America has caught onto their act sufficiently to nullify that worn out act.

It’s still a year and a half to elections. Best time to impeach for our sake, and the World’s is now.

My deepest apologies to the nation and people of Israel.

I certainly never voted for the SOB.

Two points:

1. If one deliberately wanted to light off the Middle East powder keg, there probably isn’t a better way than what Putin is doing.

2. Putin is not a fool.

Just saying...

“2. Pootin is not a fool.” As a point of interest I suppose we’ll find out later whether he got cash in advance for the S-300’s. He has made some really poor credit risks in recent decades. Could be that the money doesn’t mean that much to him-—compared to results-—but it sure hurt his feelings when Saddam skated on the 11 billion bucks he owed.

Assuming the Persians actually take delivery they will be telegraphing their important stuff sites depending on where they park them. And the S-300’s are extreme Tomahawk bait.

If the goal was money, it would be idiotic to sell to any of Israel’s enemies on any basis other than cash-in-advance. If the goal was to stir up s***, that may alter the equation.

It would appear it can't be too far off along with Ezekiel 38.
