Things are heating up.

Let's hope that Olmert has the courage to fight back resolutely and decisively.

I will keep Israel in my prayers, as always.

Yes, indeed. In fact they have been preparing for several hundred years now.

they need to get rid of olmert and get netanyahu in there..someone not afraid to fight and who may also throw a little fear into those butchers..

I sincerely hope not, but if they are, I hope they are foiled.

And with that, I am going to go try to sleep.

Take care, lizards.

Officials say Hezbollah is seeking revenge for the February assassination of Hezbollah’s military commander, Imad Mugniyah, killed by a car bomb in Damascus, Syria.

May there be the tell-tale 'workplace accident' before this even gets underway....

I have no doubt of this whatsoever. Poor Condi Rice has misunderstood the primitive, savagery of Islam from the very beginning. Maybe she should actually listen to a Friday sermon sometime, rather than pretending.

"resistance" in wake of the Shebaa Farms acquiescence.

(Pending)

The most effective response is 'responsive artillery'. Huge barrages, with circumference targeting. Do it for about 6 months or so. Kill somebody.

I would think they'd wait until after the US elections... a hot war in the ME would play into McCain's strengths... but maybe they are following the instructions of their Iranian masters, who seem to think war and death will hasten the return of the Mahdi, so maybe they'd prefer to get it going now... the more they lose the sooner the return.

Trying to think like the ayatollahs makes my head hurt.

The minute Israel showed a sign of weakness - giving up Shebaa Farms - Hezbollah ups the anti.

I know - give them more stuff!

I hereby announce the launch of my new charity program GFJ (Guns for Jews). The purpose of this program is to combat gunlessness among members of the tribe. Our out reach will provide weapons to any Jew who may not be able to afford them as well as Mossad style training in the proper use of firearms. The sad truth is that currently only 19% of Jews world wide currently possess firearms and that in todays dangerous world of Islamists and anti-Semites no Jew should ever be without a gun on their person. Please, join me in helping distribute protection to the worlds Jewry. Donate now.

Bedtime. G'nite!

I have a serious Hatred for Hizballah and one day they will be stomped on like the cockroaches they are.

how about israel ready to attack

I'm curious why these attacks aren't considered by our "leaders" as provocations to war with Iran. Are the links between Iran and Hesballah that uncertain? Or are our leaders that weak?

From the topic post of this thread:

"Intelligence agencies in the United States and Canada are warning of mounting signs that Hezbollah, backed by Iran, is poised to mount a terror attack against “Jewish targets” somewhere outside the Middle East.

Intelligence officials tell ABC News the group has activated suspected “sleeper cells” in Canada and key operatives have been tracked moving outside the group’s Lebanon base to Canada, Europe and Africa."

Something might happen in the ME, but the action is potentially here, the US and Canada.

re: #15 JimmyTheClaw

how about israel ready to attack

First paragraph from your link:

WASHINGTON: Israel carried out a major military exercise earlier this month that American officials say appeared to be a rehearsal for a potential bombing attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.

Would that...

Alarms were first raised in Canada, where as many as 20 suspected Hezbollah members have been under surveillance after as many as four suspected "sleeper cells" were activated, including one known as "Rashedan," intelligence officials tell ABC News. The members also received instruction to send their family members home to Lebanon, according to officials.

Officials have also reported that a known Hezbollah weapons expert was followed to Canada, where he was seen at a firing range south of Toronto, near the US border.

Hezbollah is an illegal terror organization in Canada. Why the hell are these guys walking around?

re: #24 Dan G.
My guess is that, since Hizballah has not yet done anything, the Israelis will wait.

What their response will be to any events in Europe, Canada, Latin America or elsewhere is unclear.

Israel may decide to stomp Hizballah in Lebanon in response to any sufficiently large event, or perhaps enough small ones. Alternatively, they may let the nation where things happen handle things locally.

If you're travelling this summer, particualrly internationally, keep your eyes a bit more open, and pay a bit more attention than usual.

Because saying they might be 'dangerous' could hurt their feelings. Which is now illegal in Canada.

re: #34 Arbalest

I don't think that they should wait; it is terrible that they've adopted a tit for tat strategy... it realy gives their enemy a lot (i.e. by doing so and not just going whole hog until the terrorists are dead, they make it appear that in fact, life is tolerable with homocidal maniacs next door).

The only way mullahs can become more powerful is if we allow it.

Two observations from the middle of the article:

"Hezbollah would not carry out an attack in the west, or wherever this attack is going to occur, without approval from Tehran," said Baer, the former CIA intelligence officer.

Baer says his Hezbollah contacts told him an attack against the US was unlikely because Iran and Hezbollah did not want to give the Bush administration an excuse to attack.

Expect events, if any, in Canada, South America, UK....

World pressure, with a big part of that being DC, is holding them back.
They won't move until Bush says to, and he ain't gonna say it.

This makes me want to puke, so help me. Bottom line? A terrorist is a terrorist, and must be called such..the pussy footing use of 'militant' is only aiding and abetting, and sadly, I wonder if any government or group of governments have the balls to seek and destroy. Damn it, the Hizballah have no problem attacking and killing..where are the balls of the west? Is everyone hiding under the bed? Get real, world, before it is too late!

On that cheery note, I must go to sleep...we spent a very busy day with our toddler grandson who seems to never even stop for a second! Hilarious, and he knows it (almost 22 months old)..and for my kids and their kids? I shudder. This is not the world I thought that they would grow up in.

It is not too late, but if we let them get away with this? We will lose any chance of taking them out without a world war that would be unlike any we have experienced. That cannot be the legacy we leave for our kids. It just cannot.

"Go Israel! Beat Hezbollah!"

Or as Dennis Prager said: "Gimme a J! Gimme an E! Gimme a W! Gimme an E! Ya-a-ayy Jews!"

That was in a hilarious argument about whether Jews should feel suspicious of their Christian brethren who support Israel, if the motive might be more eschatological than fraternal. Dennis' point was that Jews could use more cheerleaders in the world, and if the support only lasts until the end of the world, he would accept it gladly. :-)

let me just say that I support Israel and the Jews whole-heartedly. no matter when the world ends. If something is brewing right now, take care, guys. Smash the terrorists!

The Arab alliances are still reeling from 1967, which was the consequence of their attempt to wipe Israel off the map. They still routinely refer to it as "the setback."

The formal alliances are not quite what they were under Nasser in some ways, but rather even more dangerous in many ways. And of course, this time, there is the possibility of nukes in the equation.

Getting your ass kicked, i.e. all armies of the Arab world, will do that to nations and change the dynamics of a situation.

You'll find no argument with me that it's not more dangerous... but the danger comes not only from Islam... but from the "restraint" mentality of the Western Nations while dealing with savages.

Good, but The Never Ending Debate still goes on, and has ruined many a fine drinking thread.

Tin foil hat theory time.

Is it possible that these people are insane with the effects of caffeine toxicity? Since they don't allow alcohol they drink lots of coffee. Maybe that could explain why, as a group, muslims are basically insane and in a constant state of rage. I worked with some jerk once who would get in throw these "caffeine rage fits" and his eyeballs would vibrate. A testament to my gentile civility was my constant restraint from slapping the sh*t out of this punk.

Anyway, my prescription for islam is:

1- Take the bitch slapping that you all deserve as a people, even the "peaceful" ones. You let the violent ones start about a thousand wars in the name of islam so you bear some responsibility. The United States specializes in bitch slapping moronic violent ideologies so you were wise to come to us for all your bitch slapping needs. Just ask the nazis and Imperial Japanese if they were satisfied with bitch-slap-fest the United States Military served up to them. I'm sure they'll vouch for our skill in that department.

2- Stop drinking coffee. It's for adults who know how to control their emotions.

3- If that doesn't work, repeat #1 as necessary till you start acting like civilized human beings.

And never forget America's un-official national motto: "F*ck with the best, die like the rest."

Well, they found a sixth foot today.

Some reports have said the feet are severed, which most of us would take to mean cut off. But some reports I've read have pointed out that the feet are highly decomposed, and may have simply become detached from the rest of the body as the soft tissues in the joint rotted. The sneakers, being buoyant, float them to the surface once they become free.

If I were investigating this mystery, I'd being paying a lot of attention to the sneakers. Sneaker styles change, and they also don't last too long if worn daily. Some might also bear a date code on the molded sole. Careful study of the sneakers might put a time bracket on the event that killed these people, if indeed they perished in a common disaster like a plane crash.

Also take note that sneakers are common footwear for boaters, and Georgia Straight is a boaters' Paradise.

Will the ave Canadian view it as a attack on Canada or a attack on Jews?

I am afraid they will think it is just an attack on Jews. Esp in Quebec which has a long history of anti semitism.

This could explain a lot. I live across the street from Yeshiva University's Jewish History Center here in NYC. For the last month/month and a half there has been an NYPD police car and two cops standing out in front of the center almost everyday, when they are open and when they are closed....

Well, so long as they keep tabs on all of them, it allows CSIS and the other intelligence agencies to get some good early warning signs. It's better to let them walk around knowing who they are, then to nab them all and have something happen that you never saw coming.

I sincerely hope CSIS is keeping an eye on this. Hizballah's got a strong record for successful attacks.

The narrative of leftists has been that George Bush's actions have made us MORE likely to be attacked:

Baer says his Hezbollah contacts told him an attack against the US was unlikely because Iran and Hezbollah did not want to give the Bush administration an excuse to attack.

This is proof that the war on terror absolutely IS making us safer. Why is this quote not HUGE news?

It's not so much the fact that attacks against Jewish targets globally is an Israelly issue. It's more because the fact Hizballah is still capable of attempting anything like this is an Israeli issue. They should have been finished 2 years ago.

Define the enemy......and get on with it.

Sounds like the world is gathering over Maggedo once again.
The Russians and Iranians and Hezb'allah on one side.
The Israeli's, Americans and French on the other.

Have to put a little water on the fire here. Heard Bernie Farber (head of the Canadian Jewish Congress) on the radio. He said that that he's been in contact with the police and CSIS about this kind of chatter but that it hasn't been substantiated on the ground. I've heard him talk several times and he's a straight up kind of guy who is well aware of where the threats are.

Yes Nasrallah did threaten Jewish targets world wide several months ago and Jewish organizations have responded by reviewing security procedure. Its a shame that Jewish schools, synagogues and institutions need security guards to the extent that they do but that's the current reality.

In some small way I hope there is an attack on Canadian soil. It will wake up the liberals who put there heads in the sand and say oh there is no problem. there is a big problem in Canada and I hope the current Conservative government realizes it and stops it in its track. If they do they have my vote for the next election. Even if they hizbollah hits Canada the conservatives still have my vote. Cause the liberals wont do anything. SO F them.

Condi Rice hasn't misunderstood the primitive savagery of Islam from the very beginning because of one simple fact: she's never known it and has never known anything about Islam, and it is doubtful that she will ever learn anything about that brutal and savage cult, because it just might not resonate with her rose-coloured notions that it is a religion just like any other.

Hey Spirit, Condi is a mouthpiece of the old James Baker, now unfortunately the President ("Money is fungible) school of Mid East "diplomacy". Her support for a "Palestinian" state imposed in Israel and the rest of the world is despicable.

re: #90 ploome hineni

Right on utterly fantastic

re: #90 ploome hineni

Seen this?

Muslim anti-Semitism is growing in scope and extremism, to the point that it has become a credible strategic threat for Israel, according to a 180-page report produced for Israeli policymakers by the semi-official Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center (ITIC). . .

Among the report's most worrying findings is the growth over the past three decades of uniquely Muslim roots to older European versions of anti-Semitism. Without discounting classical Christian Europe's canards regarding secret Jewish conspiracies, the ritual slaughter of non-Jewish children and other allegations of Jewish evil, anti-Semitism in the Muslim world increasingly finds its own, Islamic reasons for anti-Jewish hatred through new interpretations of Islamic history and scripture. . . .

Anti-Semitism finds governmental sanction, and often support, in Islamic as well as secular states, among those who are at peace with Israel and those still in a state of war with Israel, the study finds. In countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt and Syria, daily promulgation of anti-Semitic messages are carried out through media that are under the supervision and censorship of the regimes. . .

The report makes clear that the phenomenon of Muslim anti-Semitism is now widespread, popular and expanding. "The anti-Semitism that fed the Holocaust isn't dead," Erlich says. "It is prospering."

So let me get this straight, someone blows up a Hez' leader with a car bomb, but in the past the Isrealies have always been open about that they did a killing, and tended to use military and not covert means. (meaning it probably was some one else) and now Hez' want to strike Isreal back, for something that in all probability they did not do?

I am SO GLAD these guys support Obama.

A lot of this doesn't make too much sense.
If hezbollah wanted to kill Jews then they are right next door (unless they don't want to provoke a direct IDF attack).
This could have a lot more to do with Iran.
Hezbollah is Irans' granny annex. Iran has invested a lot of time and money in arming and supporting them. Maybe it's pay back time.
Iran has lots of internal problems, Dinnerjacket has been making various threats/insults against Israel and Western countries for a while now but he is vulnerable to attack, esp concerning his search for nukes. He knows that Bush has been itching to sort him out and with Coalition troops in Iraq that's too close for comfort (as well as naval ships). So he's been ducking and diving - insult/
threaten, then playing the victim card and hiding behind the UN. All smoke and mirrors. He wants to cause trouble but doesn't want it traced directly back to him.
If hezbollah have sleeper cells (that could be a big IF) in N America or Europe then is he prepared for the backlash. Is distracting the Iranians from trouble at home, or trying to stir up more jihad around the world worth a possible attack? Is he prepared to risk it because he senses weakness in the West and a possible Obama win in America?
He could be playing games, after all, a threat is just that - it doesn't mean that those making it have the wherewithall to carry it out. But the effect on those threatened is often way bigger than the reality.
If we had another 7/7 I think it would be the end of Brown, people are now steaming mad at NuLabour and it could only take one more thing to set us off.
What about you? Or if the targets were Jewish would America be up in arms about it - or would it get smoothed over? Islamists think that Jews run everything and have all the money so what would you do if they attacked, say, Wall Street?

This could all come to nothing, I certainly hope so, but everyone needs to be very security minded and take care. I'm on the side of Israel/Jews anyway so I hope they're going to be OK.
