U.S. Soldiers Fighting Israelis?
"Postcards from America - Postcards from Israel" ^ | March 24, 2011 | Norma Zager

A New Wrinkle in Time By Norma Zager

“Lack of loyalty is one of the major causes of failure in every walk of life.” Napoleon Hill

Last night at our how-do-we-save-the-world meeting (yes, we actually do meet) a very smart man posed a question whose answer caused me great angst.

What do you think will happen, he asked me, when the United Nations recognizes Palestine as a sovereign state and sends in peacekeeping troops? The United States will be part of that deployment and suddenly U.S. soldiers will be fighting against Israelis.

Well now, that’s a whole other kettle of gefilte fish isn’t it?

All those liberal Jews who believed if their solution to Israel’s problems would only be implemented and Israel gave back everything and made nice, all would work out fine. How will they feel when their tax money is going to kill Israeli soldiers?

Now we have a ball game, as they say.

Americans, much unlike our founding fathers, have become a nation of hedonists. Where once they planned for eventualities hundreds of years in the future, now there is no plan for even tomorrow. Little thought is given to how current choices will affect future generations, or even a month ahead.

Can a society become so hedonistic without signing its own death warrant?

Nope. Just ask the Roman Empire.

Rome fell when it became all about them. America is now all about us.

We pick and choose whom to fight for as is evidenced with our current faux war against Libya.

I am quite at a loss to explain how no one seemed inspired to fight when women were being murdered in the streets of Iran. Is an Iranian woman’s life any less valuable than a Libyan?

Don’t bother to even conjure up a plausible explanation. There is none.

It all seems to hinge on American politics. Whenever our President decides he needs a distraction from the bad press and lack of answers to America’s problems, he enters into a war.

Lucky for the Libyans things are real crap in this country otherwise they would be left to their own devices like the poor Iranians who also battled and lost their lives to overthrow an evil regime.

So I guess it isn’t really even about what’s good for America, but what’s good for an incumbent President seeking reelection.

Politicians! You gotta love ‘em.

So I will return to my opening topic, the United Nations and its pathetic poor excuse to exist and how Americans may feel about the U.S. battling Israelis.

I’ll bet that eventuality never entered your mind.

First and foremost most Americans who can count to ten are aware of the fact that the two billion dollars we give the UN every year is like lighting a match to good money. Add to that the millions in parking tickets the deranged diplomats receive and must be forgiven when they use the NY city streets as their personal parking lot.

Plus, there is not a chance in this world the UN would cut a break for Israel.

After all, they have been systematically attempting to destroy the Jewish State since 1948 when they suffered buyer’s remorse over the mandate to return Israel to the Jewish people.

This is no small dilemma for American Jews and Christians who support Israel.

Thinking about such an occurrence and actually watching as Americans battle Israelis will present a picture most in the world never thought they would live to see.

It is frightening portrait of American disloyalty and a sad testament to a nation that once held integrity and principles in highest esteem. We must also think about the consequence that might ensue if Israel is pushed into a corner alone and without her once strongest ally. I fear they may be more drastic than the world may wish or imagine.

The threat of nuclear attack on Israel has been kept at bay by the prospect of swift and deadly retaliation from the United States. If the U.S. is no longer an ally, but on the side of Israel’s enemies, I’m afraid the scenario is scarier than a Stephen King novel.

Let’s play what if?

What if you are Israel, a tiny little speck in a sea of hostile Muslim nations? You have missiles attacking you on all fronts to wipe you off the earth.

It will be left to one man to decide whether to allow Israel to be annihilated, or fight back.

The Jewish people have an expression, “Never Again.” And although too many Jewish people have forsaken that credo and turned traitor or become indifferent, Israel in the end must honor that pledge made 64 years ago to six million ghosts.

Make no mistake; the button will be pushed. If Israel goes, it’s taking the entire Middle East and beyond along, too. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.

Nothing will stop the destruction and when the bombs start flying, the entire region will be laid bare.

So much for the Muslim Caliphate the Islamic extremists are so hoping to arrange with Israel out of the way.

Israel will do what it ultimately needs to do. The six million Jews living in Israel will not die alone this time. Perhaps that should be carefully considered before the United States adds its manpower to the battle and turns its back on its former friend and ally.

The Middle East is in turmoil and no one can predict how it will resolve itself. Will the new governments be stable, responsible and terror-free? Or will they be even worse than those who came before?

Unless we dig up Jean Dixon, we pretty much have to wait and see.

America has bought into the Palestinian fairy tale hype and now the world is at risk. However, there is only reality after all the false stories and marketing campaigns are over.

This is not the Twilight Zone or a parallel universe. Not another galaxy far, far away or star system populated by Jedi Warriors. It is Earth, and the truth is, the Arabs have done a hellava job in the PR department and they are winning the war. So well in fact they have even turned the U.S. to their side.

I fear we are all in for a rude awakening one day soon.

As Bette Davis said in All About Eve, “fasten your seat belts, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride.”

Yes. Is not one third of the population in Israel...Arab?

What if they revolted (not a bright idea as they enjoy freedom as no other Arabs in the ME) and the UN declared a no-fly zone?

Hopefully the Israelis will be as good sports about it as we were about the USS Liberty.

Things have been headed this way for a long time.

America’s future hinges on our support of Israel.

Said it before and I’ll say it again. I will not support any US troops that take up arms against Israel. I will support any that refuse.

I stand with Israel.

There is a twist to this.

US enlisted military personnel are never under direct UN command; but they are under its “administrative control”. That is, they are commanded by US officers, but they wear the “blue helmet” and shoulder patch of the UN, which matters as far as their Geneva Convention status goes, actually giving them more protections under the GC, than if they were wearing their US military “green helmets”.

US officers, while serving at the discretion of the POTUS, cannot be ordered, as such, to be under UN command, but may volunteer to do so “under US auspices”. That is, they may “accept” the leadership of a superior foreign officer, unless it is in conflict with their commissioned oath, but cannot be punished, only relieved, for refusing to do so.

So in this situation, say a UNSC resolution sending troops against Israel, that a weakling like Barry did not veto, he might direct US forces to be “under UN command”, and they would just refuse.

And believe me, they *would* refuse. Right now, it is a fight and a half just to get US enlisted personnel to put on that damned blue helmet, even when ordered to by US officers. They didn’t sign up for that, and bless their hearts, they are obstinate as mules in circumstances like that.

Asking them to fight the Israeli army and it’s just not going to happen.

It really doesn’t matter what the POTUS wants, how many foreign treaties he signs, and what all his Illuminati buddies think about this being the way to One World Government (tm). It ain’t gonna happen.

Or to putit another way... it is the plan.

According to some, this is all part of the Soros plan to eliminate boarders - first up is the new obizmo policy of helping rebels wherever they are in the middle east. This plan helps establish the precedent. US UN Rep Rice (Cass Sunstein’s wife) has been a long time proponent of establishing a multinational UN mandated force to go in and occupy Israel.

The MB pretty much has taken Egypt. Once that position is solidified, link up with MB in Libya, Algeria and Tunisia - creating one contiguous area controlled by the MB.

The area from Turkey south to Egypt is now controlled by various dictators, kings, Jews all quite willing to shed each others blood. This are will now have to be pacified and made whole, thus the crying need for a multinational UN mandated force. Once the remaining pockets of Christians are eliminated and the Jews relocated, the MB and Hamas will take control, linking the entire Eastern and Southern Med in the New Caliphate, but without boarders - this fulfilling Soros’ Grand Dream.

Meanwhile back on the ranch in the US, the country will be largely broke, unable to fund any sort of military, its oil and other natural resources locked up by environmental regulations, the majority of the youth too fat and in such poor physical shape they will be unfit for service, and too ill-educated to understand the difference.

At that point the US will be ripe for the pickings, and forced into a union with Canada, Mexico and south to Panama.

Muslin dominated Europe and muslim Russia will contend with the Chinese who will be in an energy pickle about then.

All because the American electorate was too stupid to look at the character and background of the man they elected President.

Ain't the future great! Be glad if you are over 65 ...

Anyone who finds the truth about O’s birth certificate will be able to blackmail him.

Think the Mossad is up to the job?

Lets listen to Obama’s words. Let’s watch his policies. They’ll tell us a lot.

“I stand with Israel”

As do hundreds of millions of americans. Let this happen and Washington D.C. will feel the wrath of God. Further, I do not believe the military would be complacent in this action. Talk about revolution! Bring it on Obama. Bring it on!!!!!!!!

the Arabs have done a hellava job in the PR department and they are winning the war

I strongly disagree with that. The PR job has been done by our people, Democrats and leftist anti Semites have sold this bill of goods to a semi-literate populace with no knowledge of history, and no ability to think for themselves.

From Jimmy Carter on, the Democrats have systematically worked at the elevation of murderous Arabs and the destruction of the Jewish State. Personally, I believe that were it not for money and votes contributed by Jews to the Democrats, the Democrats couldn't care less if the Jews were wiped off the face of the earth. Just my opinion.

About 20% are arabs. They are currently voters. They may not like Jews, but they most certainly do not want to live in Hamastan or Fatastan.
