Illegal? Like someone will be arrested ‘illegal’ or ‘illegal’ when your side is losing and you go hide behind big brother?

Perhaps Isreal should just detonate a hydrogen bomb over Tehran.

“The Israeli retaliation would be devastating and humiliating for Iran. The nuclear facilities would be destroyed, the Iranian air force and Revolutionary guards would be targeted and suffer greatly. The mullah regime might actually fall. Very much doubt Iran will launch an attack.”


That’s true only if Israel uses nukes. Against Saddam’s Iraq, it was all Israel could do to knock out the Osirak reactor. Iranian targets are further. A lot further. No way Israel could bomb Iran comprehensively without resorting to ballistic and/or cruise missiles, which are extremely expensive. Note than Russia has now installed S-300 and S-400 batteries in Syria, which will further curb Israel’s ability to fly through that airspace. (And no, Israel hasn’t mastered teleportation - it needs to fly through hostile Arab airspace to get to its destination).

I’d never heard of them. I googled and discovered they’re real.

From the "Rapture Ready" website, an article by one of the editors, which they post every Sunday. PM Netanyahu had a lot to say:

Israel Proves that Iran Lied about Nuclear Program The Israeli government pulled off an amazing achievement in the field of espionage. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed dramatic intelligence which clearly shows Iran is “brazenly lying” about its nuclear weapons program and shows the country is not complying with the nuclear deal it signed in 2015.

The Israeli Mossad gained access to a “highly secret” location in Tehran that held a trove of documents. Netanyahu said the “half a ton” of files contained material spread over 55,000 files on 183 CD’s.

“These files conclusively prove that Iran is brazenly lying when it says it never had a nuclear weapons program,” he said.

Netanyahu briefed President Trump about the intelligence last Saturday and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Sunday. European counterparts were also made aware prior to the speech, officials said.

Their revelation was a gut punch to the media and European leaders. The first couple of days they didn’t know what to say about information that showed overwhelming proof that Iran was lying. Netanyahu had incriminating documents, charts, presentations, blueprints, and photos. There were even details about a desire to build missiles that could deliver a warhead to the other side of the globe.

After a couple of days, the press collectively decided that the “accusations” by Israeli President Netanyahu are simply old news. They argued that the document pre-dated the nuclear agreement. Netanyahu has already provided an answer to this excuse. “After signing the nuclear deal in 2015, Iran intensified its efforts to hide its secret files,” Netanyahu said. “In 2017, Iran moved its nuclear weapons files to a highly secret location in Tehran.”

Netanyahu did make the mistake of going on CNN with Chris Cuomo. Because the nuclear deal was signed by Obama, CNN is by fault on Iran’s side. Cuomo turned the tables on Netanyahu by saying Israel needs to come clean about its nuclear weapons capabilities. After Cuomo repeatedly badgered the Israeli Prime Minister to the point of disrespect, Netanyahu won the argument with a final jab. “You can make all your assumptions. One thing is clear; Israel is not threatening the annihilation of another country,” he said.

Iran is so dedicated to the destruction of Israel and the US, it regularly has demonstrations with protesters trampling on Israeli flags, and some chanting “death to Israel” and “down with the USA.”

After we got fooled by North Korea with its nuclear program, it should be an obvious conclusion that Iran will pull the same stunt.

Iran has killed Americans on several occasions. In 2011, the Iranians tried to carry out what US officials called “an act of war” when it was discovered that Iran was plotting to hire a Mexican drug cartel to kill the Saudi Arabian ambassador in a D.C. restaurant blast. The world just seems to have dementia when it comes to remembering Iran’s past sins.

The Bible gives no indication that Israel is going to be destroyed by a nuclear holocaust. The fact that Iran has promised to bring about Israel’s destruction should have leaders worried about conflict. Iran may decide to attack America to weaken its Jewish ally. Israel will certainly act to preserve itself from annihilation.

I was reading a financial article that said oil could rise to $300 a barrel if a major war was to break out in the Middle East. The glut of oil has dried up, and demand is very near supply. A disruption in the flow of oil is made certain by the eventual need for Israel to take action.

The most likely reason why our leaders are making such foolish decisions is the lack of prayer intercession. Where there is no prayer, Satan is allowed to influence world events. The Iranian Nuclear deal was so insanely flawed, it would require some type of demonic influence for its creation. Because we made so many immoral decisions, I don’t see how we could turn the corner. Netanyahu’s revelation only proves that the world is only willing to reaffirm its errors.

“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:1–4).

Being about half the size of Orange or San Bernardino Counties, having been attacked 1249 times (not counting wars) as of March 2018, in its young modern history, Israel has had 3,705 killed and 14,736 injured (including 222 children killed, and 240 injured).

2016 was the most quiet year recently, as far as rockets are concerned, with only 16-18 landing in populated areas. 2017 was also relatively quiet with about 50 confirmed rocket/mortars landing in Israel. Rockets and mortars landing approximately 10k (6 miles) from populations centers are not counted unless there are casualties.

This does not count other types of terrorist attacks either. This is just rocket/mortar related.

Since 2012, 2,604 rockets and mortars have landed in Israel. Often in highly populated areas. Most provided by Iran, and many fired from Gaza.

As such, if Israel is going far out of its normal defensive posture to defend itself regarding Iranian activity to the north and east, and is as concerned as it appears to be, something really big is afoot, or could be carried out against Israel soon.

Sort of sounds like some Progressives/Libs who want to annihilate millions to save the planet.

In the last few weeks, Israel flew its F-35’s into Iran.

There’s also the possibility that Iran might time it’s missile launch with the US’s opening of embassy in Jerusalem May 14.

Nothing as stupid as liberals and left-wing nuts in America trying to trigger a war with Russia since Trumps election.

That being said, Ismael will go to war with Israel without any help from Israel or the west.

This is Iran’s intent to start war.

I don’t believe the Russians and Syria are signed up.

It’s not likely to go well for Iran and Hezbollah.

Don’t be surprised if Israel strikes Iran and makes it hurt. Also don’t be surprised if Israeli tanks drive into Syria, maybe Lebanon to flush out Hezbollah and kill as many as they can.

Anyone remember when Israeli tanks drove to the outskirts of Beirut...and the entire world begged them to withdraw?

Why do you hate Israel so much? You will be on the wrong side of Scripture.

Sure they plan to. Because while fighting the Syrian civil war, what could be more sensible than a direct attack on Israel?

BS

Another Israel hater. Israel has the right to defend itself.
