Syria: We won't cut off Hizbullah, Iran
2008-05-23
Information minister says "Olmert isn't making a single concession" because "the Golan is our right."

#4  Joe, simple. Start with Iran and then follow up with Syria. Hezboys may be a thorn, but in this scenario, their goose is eventually cooked by default.

Sure, the logistics are a bit complex. But that is the only workable scenario.

#1  TOPIX > IRAN WINS IN LEBANON + IRAN NOW IN CHARGE OF LEBANON + IRAN NUKES SPARK ME ARMS RACE, etc.

Again, any so-called PREEMTIVE = FIRST STRIKE attack by Israel agz Lebanon-based Terror groups andor Syria now must consider an IRANIAN MIL RESPONSE to such MILOPS - in addition, pro-IRAN/ISLAMIST factions are acting up in JORDAN. ISRAEL KNOWS THAT, OVER TIME, WID NUC TECH + WEAPONS PROLIFERATION IN ME NOT EVEN "PREEMPTION/
FIRST STRIKE" STRATEGICS MAY SUFFICE TO PROTECT ISRAEL FROM BEING OVERWHELMED.
