TEL AVIV, Israel — Israel's military intelligence is witnessing a strategic encirclement of the Jewish state by Iran, which is intent on fomenting a war of suicide bombings, kidnappings, and rocket attacks in the territory Israel has occupied since the 1967 Six-Day War.

Mike Wallace failed to ask about this...

Not only Iran...I once say a video of Saudi TV doing a telethon to raise funds for the families of the "suicide" killers.

Last time I checked the area in Northern Israel being attacked by Hizzbolla was given to Israel under the 1948 Partition Agreement and had nothing to do with "Occupied Territory". Am I mistaken in this?

LOL  and if he had, he would have blindly accepted whatever lie came out of Ahmadinejad's mouth because he seemed to be such a 'reasonable man' who was 'so well educated'.

I saw that on MEMRI TV...  they were giving gold and cars among other things at the telethon.

We are FAR too patient with these 'people'.

I am no expert on that issue, but generally-speaking, I have found that expecting precise statements regarding such matters from the MSM is asking for WAY too much

  I could not find an online bio for Eli Lake and so I don't know what level of expertise he has.

I SAW it too...

No doubt there is big money flowing into international terror aka islam all over the world...all built upon black gold and now investments in the west. Mu concern is that the more we falter on the oil issue...the worse things are going to get. I used to think that once the muslims tasted the "American dream" they would soften up...it has never happened in all their history however. Consider the horrors visited on the Christian dhimmis during the Muslim Turk Empire (ottoman)

Only their conversion will solve this.

Only their conversion will solve this.
 

Agreed on all counts, and it is obvious that we can't rely on any 'moderate' muslim leaders to institute a worldwide Reformation, such as what Christianity had.  There is no will in that direction and there is no central authority to implement it.

The parallels to the rise of Nazism are chilling, as is the civilized world's general refusal to confront it.  Our wealth and success has made us far too soft to effectively deal with such a vicious and focused enemy.  I believe that things will need to get far worse before people truly wake up to the totality of what is happening here, and by then it may be too late.

Even now, we still can't get a consensus on such basic things as profiling and immigration.....we are miles away from where we need to be.

One of several topics about this. A "they must go" ping.

[Fred Nerks]

A "they must go" ping.

LOL! I've been thinking about where they should go since 9/11...

Why is Iran still here? Why isn't its capital smoldering by now? Hell, it should have been smoldering back in '93.

[Kryptonite]

No mistake.

You are 100% correct. This area of Israel is well integrated as far as Jews and Arabs living in peace. The Arabs of this area did not flee during the 1948 war. They did not become "refugees"

Hizb'Allah rockets have been killing some of these Israeli Arabs

[SunkenCiv]

Me too. Usually involves a spit over a slow fire.
