If a nuke was "blown to bits" there would be "bits" of plutonium scattered all about for us to detect (someone would have detected it by now).

This is the same media that can't accurately report what Rush Limbaugh meant by "phony soldiers" when 20 million listeners heard the real context in which he said it, so I wouldn't hold my breath on getting an accurate radiation count from a site deep inside a country with no inclination to report the facts accurately and which is bordered by another country controlled by the US military. ;)

Still wouldn't surprise me if Israel used tactical nuclear weapons to take out the sites, thus the big silence from everyone.

Yeah, thanks. Shouldn’t read the thread backwards.

That article was propaganda but the comments under it were valuable, thanks.

"...There is another reason for this strike force bombing. To let them know where the line is that they should not cross..."

Well, Bob, the Nork stuff most definitely crossed a line as far as Israel and the USA are concerned, so it was quickly neutralized.
Syria, Hezbollah, Iran, and the Iranian Whoopy-Guards cross-the-line every day, with American, Lebanese, and Iraqi Forces suffering casualties.

It bothers me to know that we, the USA and Israel, have the ability to severely attrit the activities of the 'bad-guys', but don't or won't do it. It stinks of politics of some sort, and it isn't about 'negotiating' with the bastards - we know that's ruled out.

It's just a bad feeling I have that we're gonna whack-the-crap out of the 'bad-guys', but just not today. So more of our Armed Forces have to suffer until the 'Politics' are right.

Too much of a 'Patton' attitude, I guess. Stay well ......................... FRegards

...bible studies...tend to dilute the information from more scientific minds on FR.

Actually a clear understanding of the Bible and the Book of Revelation doesn't dilute scientific truth but clarifies it. We are rapidly coming to the times spoken of in the Bible and Book of Revelation. There are many good reasons for us to pay attention to what it says. Love to discuss it more if anyone's interested.

I agree. From time to time I find folks have a problem with my deeply held beliefs. I am firmly convinced if folks haven’t gotten on board with the Program, they’re running out of time. I’m neither superstitious, nor a believer in mythology. Almost fifty years of constant study and courses from major Catholic and mainline Protestant institutions has convinced me that we’ve entered that “season” we’re able to know. God bless.

I am fully in agreement with you, and as a result of the same studies, though probably not as diligent as yours.
