RESERVE TROOPS OF ISRAELI DEFENCE FORCES TO REPLACE REGULAR FORCES IN WEST BANK

GAZA, Jan 4 (NNN-KUNA) — The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) have decided to replace regular combat troops in permanent positions in the West Bank with reserve troops, according to reports reaching here from Israel.

The move is aimed at allowing combat troops move faster to frontlines in case of any eventuality in the future, the Yedioth Ahronoth daily reported on its website, Ynet Sunday. It will strengthen the combat unit garrisoning in the northern frontline, close to the Lebanese borders, and the southern frontline near the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

Yep, it's another move on the chessboard, it's indicative of serious preparations, don't you agree?

There is simply NO way that Bibi is going to let the mullahs get the atom bomb, that's IMPOSSIBLE.

It certainly looks as if they’re planning something.

And what better time than now, with Obama’s poll numbers down, Obama distracted, congress out to lunch, and the French and British turning against him?

Thanks for the ping, LucyT.

Oh, my...wait and watch.

How long ago were all the foreign reporters kicked out of Iran?

This is simply grim, how news articles have come to almost a complete standstill...

IF 'nothing' happens... when do you suppose that the foreign press will be allowed back in?

Does anybody seriously think that any type of sanctions would remotely slow down Iran's nuclear goals?

Thanks for the interesting article about the Israeli delegation going to India; I wonder how the people who negotiated the IRAN-INDIA oil pipeline feel about this conference in India about Irani nukes?

I wonder what airspace that Israel could possibly use to take out the Iranian nuclear sites? Are they really that spread out throughout Iran, or are they all primarily in the mountainous earthquake areas?

The “garbage” is hard to get to, too bulky to take out easily, and extremely hard to contain. I’m afraid this might be something Biblical we’re going into.
