DEBKA ^ | February 4, 2010

Posted on 02/03/2010 10:34:13 PM PST by Fennie

Arab voices were fanning Middle East war fever Wednesday night, Feb. 3. DEBKAfile's military sources report that not only are Syrian leaders beating war drums - Syrian foreign minister Walid Muallem said in Damascus: "Israelis, do not test the power of Syria since you know the war will move into your cities" - but Egyptian military sources have put out information purporting to outline Israel's preparations to strike Iran.

Syria, Iran, Hamas, they are all uniting against Israel. I just hope that Israel does not fight a PC war.

IMO the IDF will take out the nearest threat first...

Maybe they hope a show of force will keep the Syrians at bay. Sent a message that if they start anything the Israelis will tie Assad Jr. to the rafters by his neck, like they did to his buddy, Hussein.

True,,,

At some point Israel will have to assault the Bekka Valley

They will have that ridge-line between them(Syrian Border).

Blitzkrieg comes to mind...

The following was NEVER true of Damascus....yet!

Isaiah 17: 1: The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.

2: The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

3: The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts.

4: And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.

5: And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.

6: Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.

7: At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.

8: And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.

9: In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.

10: Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:

11: In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.

12: Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!

13: The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.

14: And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.

I heard a month ago, direct from Israel, units that are not normally deployed went north, and I know I spoke of it on blog talk radio, dont remember if I went here with it

I also was sent an e-mail 3 days ago, posted it online, units are being placed on alert status

Too many Freepers said I was loose lipping it

Now, this thread is almost applauded??

I got this forward from a friend who is involved in terrorism awareness and trust his sources completely

there is in the last 2 or 3 days, reports of increased missile defense ships in the Persian Gulf and also Hizbullah mobilizing inside Syria and Syria being a possible target to preempt Hizbullah/Hamas

Last month, several sources independently confirmed Israeli deployment to the Lebanon/Syria border area of many Military units that are still deployed or on alert status.

The USS CARL VINSON was helping Haiti, then left. I presume it left to the Gulf.
