The war against our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon and all other Muslim countries ,Know that same fate which befalls us will befall you, in history nations have gained an upperhand over another nation but what happened to the mightier nation it was destroyed. Every Nation has their time in success but when the nation that holds sway oppressos other nations know that their downfall will not happen upon the hands of other men but Upon Allah (GOD) for verily god has declared oppression upon himself haram (forbidden) so what about man.
This war will lead to the destruction of America and its Allies for surely you have not hurt the people of lebanon and palestines but all the muslims around the world everywhere young and old our conviction in our deen is strong and we by the glory and the might of God have been given victory insha allah .

It’s time the world would rid itself of psychopaths such as the Iranian leaders and other trouble makers. The recent events shed a very clear light on the Middle Eastern picture, Those UN officials, who care to confuse wolfs with lambs, should consider a different job or take some lessons of how to keep your back straight so they can see the real picture and talk out of their mouth (as appose to alternate ways) and stop ridicule their highly regarded position.
No Peace will come about with a G8 that is reluctant to take a strong stand against Iranian leadership who at one sentence denies the Holocaust ever happened and in the second, compares the Israeli administration to the Nazi regimeâ€¦.. Which is it Ayatollahâ€¦.? I am getting confusedâ€¦. Or is it time for your kind to be taken down from the stage.
This is a rare opportunity for The US, EU, and Russia to finally turn on the hit on their lukewarm unified positions because Iâ€™m under the impression extremists only speak and understand their own language, correct me if I am wrong.

The time has come to end this, yes there will be bloodshed on both sides, no doubt about it, but bloodshed is necessary to achieve the ultimate goal, peace.

In general I agree with steve sturm’s assesment. Although this does have the ability to become a “Regional Conflict,” I do not believe it will. To this point no one in the Arab World is rallying to the side of either Hamas or Hizbollah (other than symantically). The Saudi’s have openly condemned Hizbollah. The Egyptian’s and Jordaninan’s have peace agreements with Israel. Syria for some unknown reason has stepped into the breach. Remember ‘82 when Syria lost 80 aircraft to Israel. The Iranians do not have the ability to help Syria barring rhetoric.

The Devil’s Arithmetic

When will the ’stop or I’ll say stop again’ brigade learn their lesson. You do not come to a gun fight armed with a knife. “Israel’s military invasion and naval blockade of Lebanon is being denounced in European capitals and at the United Nations …

While I hope Israel makes Syria pay for having supported terrorism (and I wish the US had done something to Syria for what Syria has done in Iraq), I don’t see it, as Rick does, becoming a general war. By all accounts, Syria can’t match Israel and will go down quickly. As for those who would help Syria, Iran is a ways away, with no easy way to get to the scene. Neither Egypt nor Jordan will jump in (not because they love Israel but because, I presume, Israel is well-prepared to fight on those fronts and those two countries know it). The rest of the Israel-hating Middle East/Arab/Muslim world may send support of some kind, but nothing of any substance. Russia isn’t coming in to save Syria, nor will it come in to save Iran should Iran be dumb enough to get openly involved. And, as far as the EU sending in its military to set things right… yeah, right, they can’t send the little they have without US airlifter support.

So I’m looking at this as a free shot for Israel… all upside and very little downside. Upside: they deal a serious blow to Hezbollah, they create a 50 mile buffer on the Lebanese southern border (or however much they need to keep Hezbollah rockets away from Israel), they get to bloody - at a minimum - Assad’s nose for his support of Hezbollah and they expose Iran as all bluster. downside: the EU hates them anyway and Iran was going to target Israel with its nukes anyway; this isn’t putting Israel any higher on the target list.

[...] Update: Rick Moran’s tracking the rumor, first reported at Ynet, that Israel’s given Assad 72 hours to turn over the two kidnapped soldiers or suffer the consequences. At least one Israeli officer has denied it, but Ynet is a credible source. [...]
