Israel Presents New Deterrence Policy
Ynetnews ^ | April 5, 2012 | Shahar Chai

Posted on 04/06/2012 2:58:25 PM PDT by GiovannaNicoletta

IDF Chief of Staff Benny Gantz on Thursday declared a change in army police whereby any firing at Israel's south will be met with an attack on Hamas, regardless of the group behind the fire. Similarly, any firing from Lebanon will result in an attack on Hezbollah, and any terror attack by Iran's emissaries overseas will prompt a response against Tehran.

Speaking at a conference in the Gelilot base, Gantz discussed the many threats Israel faces. "The IDF is Israel's sharpened sword and protector," he noted. He also addressed the firing of rockets at Eilat on Wednesday night.

It’s the only thing the false prophet worshipers understand and respect. And fear.

V.I. Lenin once said “When you live among wolves you must howl like a wolf,”

At least 1.3 billion brainwashed Islamic zombies. The only thing that will break the spell is to demolish their holy cities but no party has the cojones or foresight to do so.

Bible prophecy teaches that the living God is the God of Israel and that Jesus Christ His only begotten Son is coming King of the earth. God almighty, who created man in His own image, will defend Israel when it is on the verge of destruction from the whole world at the end of the propehcied 7 year tribulation. At this time, the armies of many nations, under the evil one antichrist, will seek to destroy God’s Israel and He Himself will descend from heaven in the person of Jesus Christ with His angels and with His saints, and then destoy all the armies with a Word of His mouth. It is so close and so apparant even now as Lucifers armies, all the unsaved of the world, have such vehement and evil hatred of the little nation God has chosen for Himself to rule over all the earth. And God will rule over the earth for 1000 years, the best and only just government will be under our Lord and King Jesus Chrsit. But His enemies will be destroyed and cast into hell.

Come Lord Jesus, rule and reign over all your enemies!

Check out the pictures of Gantz in the article. Looks like one tough dude. Not to be messed with.

How about this? The Palis and Hamas fire rockets into Israel with rockets and mortars. Israel replies with 155mm howitzers loaded with HE, WP, and cargo rounds to deliver high explosive, grenades, or mines. Hezbollah fires into Israel from Lebanon, the IDF fires back with 155mm howitzers and M270 MLRS with cargo rockets carrying 644 submunitions.

Israels prime objective is designed to hold the nation’s territory alt all costs and deny the enemy forces position on land.They have no choice and nowhere to withdrawl-except to the sea. The use of nuclear weapons by the Israeli high command might be easier than other nations
