#1 The teenage settlement girls in Israel have more guts than their government!
Lets not forget brave Bibi gave away Hebron.

#2 It seems Israel was most "stable" in the late '70s and '80s when there was NO recognition of "Palestine" or Palestinian "self-rule" of any kind. So it stands to reason that the Palestinian "government" is fundamentally responsible for hightened tensions throughout the mid-east, and the only logical solution to these problems is an end to "Palestine" i.e. mass deportations of "Palestinians" from the land of Israel = ethnic cleansing for world peace! If the "Palestinians" prefer death to living in peace in Israel (a stance they eagerly assert at every opportunity), so be it.

Hey! I mean, it's obviously what the militants, and moderates, and whatall WANT... (just tryin' to accomodate the bloodthirsty little martyr wannabes). Ya can't humiliate 'em, so better it's better to just kill 'em - end of problem.

#4 The hour is getting late and Iran should be thumped very hard sooner inorder to avoid a mass extinction of life in Iran later.

a thought

2007
Politically it would be far easier for the United States to covertly support [in a huge way] Israel in a massive attack on Iran setting it and any surviving Mullahs back 20 years.

Certainly the Israelis have the moral high ground. Iran has declared War on Israel, promoted it's extinction directly in TV broadcasts by President Mad Mood Imadinnerjacket himself and covertly through it's proxy Hezb'allah who has killed hundreds if not thousands of Israeli civilians and soldiers since '82.

Iranian agent assassins have killed Israelis around the world.

Politically we, the United States have the high ground to to support Israel covertly or overtly. Recently the Iranians have been helping to kill ours folks in Iraq. And Never Forget 1983 Beirut barracks bombing, Never Forget the April 1983 United States Embassy bombing...etc.

Position on Israel
From the inception of Hezbollah to the present[4][58][59][60][61] the elimination of the state of Israel has been Hezbollah's primary goal. Secretary-General Nasrallah’s has stated that "Israel is an illegal usurper entity, which is based on falsehood, massacres, and illusions,"[40] and considers that the elimination of Israel will bring peace in the middle east: "There is no solution to the conflict in this region except with the disappearance of Israel."[62][63] In an interview with the Washington Post, Nasrallah said "I am against any reconciliation with Israel. I do not even recognize the presence of a state that is called 'Israel.' I consider its presence both unjust and unlawful. That is why if Lebanon concludes a peace agreement with Israel and brings that accord to the Parliament our deputies will reject it; Hezbollah refuses any conciliation with Israel in principle."[64]

real politique at best it's a toss up, I don't think there's the WILL in either Capitol right now.

#5 My understanding is that something is in the works. But if its not? Well placed Iranian bribes could put secret advanced missile banks on the West Bank. Accurate missile strikes on Israel's entire power production capacity, will destroy Israel.

One Israeli blogger told me that if the Ashkelon generating plant is taken out, then rather than rebuild under the threat of new destruction, Israel will destroy its enemies. And Ashkelon faces Kassem rocket attacks. One missile could make all hell break loose. Then there is the matter of a future ICBM threat to the US Homeland.

A couple of weeks ago, US military posted its counter-insurgency manual. In the case of Baghdad, they advocate putting 75% of theater troops on permanent patrol, while saying absolutely nothing about better intelligence that would make better use of mobile troops. The fact that operational command doesn't understand the ease of setting up IED, RPG and sniper traps, is causing me to shift towards pessimism. Israel alone? What a horrible thought.

They fully understand, but are simply unwilling. The current TTP is one of waiting until something happens, then use a law enforcement approach. If taken under fire, come up on the "Sheriff's Net" and await instructions.

#7 Bibi is pulling his punches. Baker is a pig, and a hack for the paleos. Any credibility he may have once had is completely gone, and his cancerous ideology has been shown to be ridiculous time and time again. His ugliness and Jew hate are exposed. I'd have alot more respect for him if he just came out and called for the destruction of Israel like Ahmedinijad. At least we wouldn't have to wallow through this pretense of fairness and objecitivity. Time to call a spade a spade.
