Following the alleged Israeli airstrikes in Syria last night, Syrian President Bashar al-Assad said his country is more committed than ever to eradicating terrorists from his country.

Meanwhile, an official in an alliance that includes Syria and its regional allies told the New York Times that Iran will likely attack Israel after the Lebanese parliamentary election in May.

The last big county to try Suicide By Israel was Egypt and they managed to get an arm and a leg blown off.

They really want to start a war? Israel defended herself against multiple countries in 6 days.

“It would be the dumbest thing Iran could do, attacking Israel, knowing PDJT is a good friend of Netanyahu and a staunch supporter of Israel.”


Why would it be dumb? The US is a staunch ally of Saudi Arabia. And yet the mullahs are shooting ballistic missiles at Saudi cities via their Yemeni proxies. The Houthis can barely arm themselves, let alone gin up ballistic missiles. The Iranians will ante up until they get smacked upside the head. That means missiles raining down on cities and military bases in Iran proper.

Iran expected to become ashen, smoking pile of rubble moments after it attacks Israel.

It isn’t Anti-Semitism, its just good tactics on Israel’s part.

Israel wants to deal with Iran in a way that public opinion can support around the world.

War really isn’t a good way though to solve problems in the end.

Lets hope cooler heads prevail and this can be worked out at a negotiating table.

North Korea had actual nuclear weapons and developed a capability to deliver them.

Iran was nowhere and is nowhere near where North Korea was and look what’s happening now.

This makes no sense. They must be relying someone to jump in on their side(read the Soviets), which in itself makes no sense. While never admiting publically, Israel has made it known that if a situation ever became untenable, they would use the Jerico option.

Yeah, the more I think about this, the more silly it becomes..

As one who is familiar with that passage and how it ends, I look forward to watching them try!

None of the countries from Psalm 83 are going anywhere near this present conflict. Many stories of miraculous events favoring Israel were told, especially after the 1967 war. These can’t be cited, as there is no proof, but the people of the Psalm 83 countries know the stories.

As Peter O’Toole said in the 1962 Classic, “Lawrence of Arabia” in his dialogue with Omar Sharif:

T.E. Lawrence: Sherif Ali. So long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people; a silly people; greedy, barbarous, and cruel, as you are.

This was true in 818, 1218, 1718, 1918 and remains UNCHANGED in 2018!

So is our regional Jews Men’s Club Awards dinner. They will just have to postpone the attack. /sarc

Lesson learned for Iran. Never piss off hungry Jews, esp. after having to sit through an awards dinner.

The early history of the Christian religion shows a level of violence of which the moslems would be proud. Look at the appalling murderous crowds in Constantinople.
