Another War In Lebanon Soon?

TEL AVIV -- Three years after the assassination of former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq Hariri, Syria and its Hezbollah ally (its invasion army) appear determined to block the full implementation of UN Resolution 1701, which sought to stabilize the region by requiring the Lebanese army to guard their borders with Syria and Israel, and the abolishment of Syrias Hezbollah army in Lebanon.

By preventing the election of a new president, in succession to Emile Lahoud, whose term ended last Nov. 23, both Syria and Hezbollah have two clear objectives:

* Syria wants to prevent at all costs the appointment of the international court that is to try Hariri's assassins. All fingers point to Damascus as having masterminded the assassination.

* Hezbollah wants to make sure any future president and government would not try to disarm this pro-Iranian Shiite terrorist organization, as called for by Resolution 1701.

Because of these two uncompromising positions, all outside efforts to find a solution to the vacant presidency have failed.

Despite its skepticism, the U.S. had allowed France to mediate in this crisis. After many international conferences and great effort by France, the effort has failed. Syria promised to be "co-operative" but in reality blocked any compromise.

Then came an Arab effort. Following a unanimous decision by 22 Arab foreign ministers, including the Syrian minister, the Arab League presented a simple and clear cut proposal that met everyones approval except Syria which threw up many hurdles. Hezbollah and its Christian ally, Gen. Michel Aoun, wanted an agreement on the future government even before the election of the new president. They also wanted an agreement on the future army chief of staff in order to make sure he wouldn't try to disarm Hezbollah, as called for by Resolution 1701.

In other words, the Syrians don't want their murderous guilt proven before the world and they have no intention of ending their takeover attempt of Lebanon. They would rather see all of the Lebanese dead first.

With the French and Arab League failures, a frustrated Amr Moussa, last of the Arab League representatives to try, returned Saturday to Cairo, leaving to the rival Lebanese leaders the impossible task of finding a solution to their crisis. The result was as expected. Leaders from both camps engaged in reckless rhetoric, threatening each other with a renewed civil war.

The most furious rhetoric came from Democratic Gathering leader, Druze MP Waleed Jumblatt. He said Hezbollah's leader, Sheik Hassan Nassrallah, and his Christian ally, Gen. Michel Aoun, are "tools" in the hands of the "most despicable" people, meaning the Syrian regime.

Jumblatt accused his rivals of preparing for the return of Syria to Lebanon. "Whatever your potency and whatever mercenaries you use, we are not afraid," he said. "We will never kneel to Syria... If you want chaos, we welcome chaos... If you want war, we welcome war..."

This sharpened war of words came on the eve of the third anniversary of the assassination of Rafiq Hariri on Feb. 14. Prime Minister Fuad Siniora and leader of the pro-government coalition, Saad Hariri, are organizing a mass rally in only 2 days, on this coming Thursday in the Martyrs Square in Beirut, similar to the one-million rally that led to the withdrawal of the Syrian troops from Lebanon.

Hariri and his economic empire are organizing transportation to Beirut from all over the country. Hariri donated $52 million from his own pocket to finance various development and education projects in northern Lebanon, where Syrian influence is particularly strong. This man is pouring his own personal fortune into ridding Lebanon of the Syrian invaders.

The U.S., France, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Israel are following with great concern this instability in Beirut. While the silent majority in Lebanon is still a majority, it is feared Hezbollah and its pro-Syrian allies would use violence to disrupt Thursday's rally, which could degenerate into an open civil war.

As for Israel, the major concern in Jerusalem is that the chaos in Lebanon will spill over its northern border. According to Resolution 1701, the border is monitored jointly by UNIFIL and by the Lebanese army.

Israel fears Hezbollah will use this instability to infiltrate back into Southern Lebanon. Israel is aware of such an eventuality and is preparing itself for such an unwelcome development.

Lebanon could erupt into civil war in only two more days. This is serious business as it literally means war between Lebanon and Syria. It may seem strange to us in the West, but Lebanons best ally is Israel. Lebanons loyalties are divided between groups loyal to Syria and those loyal to Lebanon, and the latter are allies of Israel. This is simply because they support a peaceful, not-aggressive Lebanon and this is exactly what Israel wants as well.

In the event of a Lebanese civil war, would Israel come to the aid of their allies? And if they did, would the Syrians attack them? Israel would retaliate, of course, which would infuriate Russian and Iran and we might have to come to the defense of Israel.

I'm sure you can see now where a civil war in Lebanon could lead. The next few days are crucial.

Thank G-d for the Naval Academy

In the not so distant future the name Annapolis will become synonymous with futility and failure. It will be be found with names like Oslo, Dayton, and various other city names that have had the misfortune of hosting a self described peace process between the Israelis and the "palestinians". If it weren't for the existence of the Naval Academy, Annapolis would have no positive reference.

Lets look at the major roadblocks of peace between Israel and the "palestinians".


1. Israel wants to be recognized as a Jewish state.

Based on the history of this planet there should be no argument against this. Historically the Jews haven't been treated very well by their host countries. Why not provide them a place of their own. It would only make sense that this home be the actual location they consider home. Mahmoud Abbas cannot go through with this because he would lose all backing from his present enablers. Though this list of enablers is shrinking, he can't afford to lose anymore.

2. United Jerusalem

Anytime islamists have control of the holy sites, the Jews seem to get left out. Jerusalem is the heart of Israels identity. Islamists didn't give a hoot about Jerusalem until recent history. This concern on the part of mohammedans for Jerusalem is purely political and a power play. JERUSALEM IS ISRAEL.

3. Stop terror attacks

Mahmoud Abbas has no control over this whatsoever. Hamas will continue to agitate and attack Israeli's and other defined infidels every opportunity they get. Before the previous two even get mentioned, this is the major show stopper. Hamas will control the West Bank soon enough. When that happens, all the propping up of Abbas by the West will mean nothing and prove the western diplomats to be as ignorant as us average people already believe them to be. Maybe at this point Ehud Olmert will finally be out on his ear. I would hate to be either Mr. Olmert or Mr. Barak when they stand in front of the creator and have to answer why they were willing to hand G-d's temple over to the mohammedans.

4. Bash and Momo

Iran and Syria will never allow for the peaceful existence of Israel. They have sworn to wipe Israel from the maps and eradicate the nation from the planet. Yet the west still attempts to keep them involved. This will be the downfall of the west. Israel will pay the initial cost.

Despite the rhetoric, there is no equivalence to what is happening in the Israel -"palestinian" conflict that would put it on par with apartheid. Only an historical moron would claim so. Despite the sympathies of Ms. Rice, here experiences as a child in the segregated south has nothing to do with the situation the "palestinians" have put themselves in.

The Annapolis conference will lead nowhere but to more bloodshed and more war. Too bad politicians aren't forced to live like the rest of us. They, like actors in Hollywood, get to pretend they are smarter than they really are. They get to ignore reality and throw their farcical fantasies into action. It is the rest of us day-to-day- schmoes that have top face the consequences.

Manipulating Turkey?

The Counterterrorism Blog had the following by Dr. Wallid Phares:

Are Syria and Iran Manipulating Turkey on Iraq?
By Walid Phares

PKK is the Kurdish Worker’s Party that adopted violence in its struggle against Turkey. As the Turkish Parliament recently voted to authorize a limited invasion into Northern Iraq to fight the PKK militias, one can see the rising shadows of two hostile regimes in the region, eager to see a NATO member, Turkey, eventually clashing with the United States through their local allies in Iraq. Indeed, the Iranian and Syrian regimes have been pushing the precarious mechanisms of a Turkish military intervention into Northern Iraq for a while now. Logically, a collapse of security in the most secure part of Iraq would lead to a crumbling of the military stabilization of the country, a chief objective of US plans in Iraq.

But the Iran plans for Iraq, which I have analyzed in a previous article, consist of three types of destabilization: An Iranian push in the south, a Syrian opening for the Jihadists in the center, and dragging Turkey to a dogfight in the mountains of the north.

In order to launch the third leg preemptively into Iraqi Kurdistan, Tehran and Damascus have been pushing all the right buttons for the confrontation. Iran’s shelling of villages in the northern part of Iraqi Kurdistan over the past months aimed at encouraging Turkey to do the same.

Opening salvos by the Ayatollahs are to test the Kurdish and US reactions. Moreover, Iran’s Pasdaran - the Revolutionary Guard that provides training and support to terrorist groups throughout the region and abroad - is said to have infiltrated some circles within the PKK, since the latter was based in Syria a few years ago. The PKK suddenly has been waging inexplicable operations inside Eastern Turkey with a new energy, after years of calm. Sources believe the PKK was manipulated by both Iran and Syria into these terror acts on Turkish soil while the official bases of the group are on Iraqi soil. Hence the attacks triggering Turkish anger and responses may have been manipulated by the “axis.”

But the Syrian regime has another card it could have played. According to well informed sources in the region, and not to the surprise of experts, the Alawite regime in Syria (Alawites are important to the leadership of Syria, as President Bashar al-Assad and his father, Hafez are Alawite) has had good relations with Alawite officers inside the Turkish armed forces. The “Alawite connection” may have been activated to encourage a military response and incursion into northern Iraq. But nevertheless, the Assad regime and the Turkish Islamist Government - reinforced by the last Presidential election in Ankara - have a joint objective interest in weakening the US presence in Iraq.

Assad thinks that he can help create a major Turkish-Iranian-Syrian alliance against the Kurds in Northern Iraq. And by the same logic, the Kurds, solid US allies, will be facing another formal ally of Washington on Iraqi soil: Turkey. The plan is to drag the Turkish Army (traditionally not inclined to find itself face to face with its major ally) to enter a territory where “terrorists are based,” but where they could be indistinguishable from those Kurdish Peshmergas who are the backbone of the new post-Saddam Iraq. The rest can be guessed.

As the “axis” is using all its cards to crumble Iraq’s and Lebanon’s democracies, the Kurds in Northern Iraq should have acted quickly and strategically. There shouldn’t have been any PKK bases in their areas because these are a recipe for disaster.

The situation in Iraq as a whole is still complex, precarious and explosive, despite the advances made by the new US military plans, including the surge. The north must remain stable and secure and, above all, at peace with the only “NATO” border it has. The other frontiers Iraqi Kurdistan has are with the Pasdarans and the Syrian Baath. Both want the new Iraq’s head.

Instead of playing charms with Tehran and Damascus, the Kurdistan city of Soleimaniye must reinforce its own deterring force and maintain stability and peace on its northern border with Turkey. Knowing all too well that the new Islamist Government in Ankara is shifting the grounds inside the modernist Kemalist Republic, Iraq’s Kurdish leadership mustn’t offer any reason for a Turkish adventure in their areas.

Hence, it is recommended that the Kurdish leaders of Iraq be the ones to reign in the PKK to avoid having the Turkish Army crossing the borders. The US can - and should - broker arrangements between the Iraqi Kurds and the Turkish military to avoid the rise of an anti-Kurdish Triangle in the region.

***********

Dr Walid Phares is the director of Future Terrorism Project at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, a visiting scholar at the European Foundation for Democracy, and the author of The War of Ideas: Jihadism against Democracy.

Baby Assad, Nanci “The Most Powerful Woman in the World” Pelosi’s dear friend, is in the struggle of his life to save himself from the UN tribunal and at the same time prop himself up in power. With the help of the putrid little maggot, Ahmedinajad, he is trying to forge a powerful tripartite anti American alliance that will include one of our allies, Turkey.

The PKK has a bloody history and long enmity with the Turks, when the latter finally managed to neutralize it, its leadership fled to Syria where they found ready asylum (as did countless other terrorist groups). It was obvious Syria was no friend of Turkey. Yet, considering that politics makes strange bedfellows, suddenly the two countries may find a common interest… While the PKK has been a scourge to Turkey and deserve to be destroyed, the Syrian/Iranian axis is manipulating them into a situation where they may just be intrumental in tearing up the traditional Turkish/American alliance.

Such a breakup would be a powerful boost for Assad Jr. and his puppeteer, Ahmedinajad. It might also explain the timing of the failed congressional non-binding resolution labeling the almost 100 year old events that murdered over a million Armenians, as “genocide.” Does anyone believe that Pelosi et al, do not understand that such a resolution would drive a wedge between the US and one of its most formidable allies in the region? At a time when the Iraq War is draining such tremendous resources from the US, at a time when it needs the friendship of everyone that cares to be on its side, what is the point of antagonizing a friend?

The answer, gentle reader, is blowing in the wind! The answer lies in the malodorous fishy love fest between Pelosi and Assad earlier this year. In an effort to ensure that America does not win in Iraq (ann American victory which would then destroy the Democrat Party) Nanci and Bashaar (they do make such a lovely couple, don’t they?) have united to destabilize Iraq even further. She hailed Assad, at the time, as a someone who wants to bring peace and progress to the region, by raising this political pariah into world statesman class. Pelosi is directly responsible for the sufferings of Lebanese and the systematic murder of its anti-Syrian leadership; she is directly responsible for the sufferings and poverty of the Syrian people controlled by a ruthless dictator. She is also psychologically reinforcing those groups that work hard for chaos in Iraq, those groups that murder Sunnis, that murder Shiites and cause the death of American soldiers there. All for the party, none of it for the good of the country Madame Speaker is an elected official of.

When what is good for America suddenly collides with what is best for one of its political parties, perhaps it is time for the country to unmask a leadership that carouses with internationally known political vermin, whose very agenda is the destruction of America. Americans, regardless of whether they approve or disapprove of the war in Iraq, must realize that today’s Democrat Party does not have the country’s interest at heart.

Nay, the Democrats today are hard at work finding and pursuing every venue that can make the US look bad. Why? So that people disillusioned with the Republicans will instead put the Democrats back in power… regardless of the bloodshed the latter are encouaging and facilitating. The cynicism, the total disregard for America’s interest, the fact that they are hard at work to humiliate our country, should be ample proof of their moral bankruptcy and intellectual dishonesty. Will America wake up in time and deal the Democrats the political death they rightfully earned? Until then, Turkey is being manipulated by Iran and Syria into a confrontation with the US. All this with the tacit support of Pelosi, Reed and the rest of that gang.

Overstaying their Welcome?

Naharnet has the following about how public opinion is starting to turn against the Palestinian “refugees” in Lebanon:

Nahr al-Bared Battle Fuels Anti-Palestinian Sentiment
As the list of dead soldiers grows, anger mounts in villages of north Lebanon where the army has been locked in a deadly showdown with Islamist militants for more than two months.

Black-clad women shout angrily as men in sombre mood sit in heavy silence next to portraits of the “martyred” soldiers in impoverished villages in the remote north — a main reservoir for the country’s armed forces.

Elite unit soldier Bassam Jawhar, 29, was killed on July 14 during the ongoing battles around Nahr al-Bared refugee camp where Fatah al-Islam militants have been under army siege since May 20.

He was killed when a booby-trapped building collapsed on a patrol in Nahr al-Bared and it took the army six days to retrieve his body from under the rubble due to the intensity of the battles.

Like Jawhar, six other soldiers from Bebnin fell in combat in Nahr al-Bared in two months.

At his family home in the village, his widow Mariam, wearing a black dress and an embroidered headscarf, sits near the giant portrait of the “Shahid” (martyr in Arabic) standing proudly in full combat gear and holding a rocket-launcher.
“I delivered our baby the day he left, 50 days ago exactly,” said Mariam, 23. “He only saw the baby twice.”

Why was Jawhar killed? Because pro Syrian/Iranian militias from within the refugee camp decided to flex muscle, to flaunt how little they care for Lebanon… or for their own people, for that matter.

In another room, the grandfather holds his newly-born granddaughter in his arms as an endless queue of men flock in to present their condolences.

The procession takes place in silence, but anger is boiling.

“Don’t say Fatah al-Islam, it is an insult to Islam. Say ‘the criminal gang of Shaker al-Abssi,’” the Islamist group’s commander, said Mohammed Jawhar, a cousin of the slain soldier.

Across the dusty villages of the impoverished northern province of Akkar, the men enroll in the country’s armed forces by local tradition but mostly by necessity.

“There is not a single house where there is no soldier,” explained 42-year-old Zeina Sufain, who lost her 19-year-old son Firas on May 22.

“There is no work here. Even for those who go to school,” she said.

The list of soldiers killed in Nahr al-Bared has painfully reached 116, including 27 servicemen on the first day of the clashes when the Islamist extremists attacked most of them in their beds.

116 soldiers died defending their country from the enemy… within. Yes… the enemy is within Lebanon, within the refugee camps which for about 40 years now have been independent enclaves where neither the Lebanese police nor the Lebanese Army were allowed to go in, by mutual agreement, and this is their show of gratitude…

Reports of “massacres” against off-duty soldiers by Fatah al-Islam, including harrowing stories of servicemen executed at gunpoint or slaughtered with knives seemed to have at least momentarily ended decades of good relations with the Palestinian refugee camp.

“Let them go to hell,” shouted Sahar, Bassam’s aunt.
“We will never let the camp be rebuilt. We will never accept that the Palestinians come back. We used to buy from their shops, but they are traitors. They harbored these criminals, they helped them,” Mohammed Jawhar said.

“Some of them even married their girls to the terrorists” from Fatah al-Islam, shouted another man.

But despite their grief and great losses, Akkar villages continue to back the army and its military campaign on Nahr al-Bared.

“In Akkar we love the army,” said a cousin of one of the slain soldiers in Bebnin.

But in a poor house further down the street, Zeina Soufain voices rare criticism of the army.
“They sent them (soldiers) there (to Nahr al-Bared) like cannon fodder. They had no experience, and they only had a Kalashnikov,” she said.

Back at the Jawhar reception hall, a soldier came to present his condolences before returning to Nahr al-Bared after a six-hour leave, his first in 14 days.

“Morale is high, even the wounded soldiers want to return” to the battlefront, the soldier who did not wish to be identified told Agence France Presse.

“With our meagre means, we are combating a very well-trained enemy that kills with unbelievable savagery,” he said.

The soldier said the army was surprised by the “very sophisticated arms” of Fatah al-Islam which he said had “high-precision rifles, infra-red goggles and remote-controlled landmines.”

He said the soldiers “stay three days in the camp. They take turns to sleep. Then they leave and others replace them.”

Over the last few months we saw not only Palestinians fight savagely, ruthlessly, against Palestinians (Hamas vs. Fatah), we see them fight with the same hatred and ferocity against Lebanon, a country that extended its hospitality… Yes, gentle reader, you may argue that Lebanon, like Syria, like Jordan, like Saudi Arabia, like Egypt, did everything possible to keep them poor and unable to integrate into regular society. Let’s not forget however that only Lebanon gave the Palestinian camps sovereignty over their own land, and to what results?

Naharnet also reported today:

Army Seizes Explosives during Raid on Militants’ Shelter
The Lebanese army on Tuesday continued to tighten the noose around diehard Fatah al-Islam militants, pounding the northern Palestinian refugee camp of Nahr al-Bared with heavy artillery barrages. It The army’s guns bombarded the remaining Islamists’ pockets at the camp with long range artillery fire.

It said troops occasionally fought fierce house-to-house battles with the militants.

The state-run National News Agency said the Lebanese army on Tuesday also seized explosive materials as well as weapons, detonators and electronic devices during a raid on a shelter inside the camp on the outskirts of the northern port city of Tripoli.

It said a number of militants were killed in the attack.

NNA said troops also blocked most exits to a sanitary sewer system after they discovered that it had been used as routes of escape by the terrorists

There was no word on casualties from Tuesday’s fighting. NNA said the army’s guns bombarded the remaining Islamists’ pockets at the camp with long range artillery fire.

It said troops occasionally fought fierce house-to-house battles with the militants.

They do not let up, they are intent in dying and killing. Bloodshed seems to be all they care about! Can a people that embraces such a culture, endure long?

The only Arab country that actually welcomed them and gave them everything necessary to integrate them into their own society was Kuwait. What happened in Kuwait during Saddam’s invasion on August 2, 1990? Who turned out to be Saddam’s greatest cheerleaders in Kuwait? Those same Palestinians that had been received with open arms… such gratitude!

Unless the Palestinians choose a leadership that truly represent the healthy aspirations of the average man on the street, unless they are willing to lay down their weapons, get rid of their hatred against all and everyone they are destined to forever remain a world pariah. Will the plight of Palestinians continue to be dismal or will they succeed in bettering themselves and their future? The choice is theirs!

The stakes are higher

To those who have been sleeping or ignoring events in the Middle East, the stakes have risen. The status quo has shifted and the "same ol'" can't be relied on to occur.

Iran is in the process of developing a nuclear ability that will allow it to build destructive weapons. It is lead by a fanatic who believes that he is paving the way for the 12th imam of islamic lore. this maniac has allied himself with a fellow despot in Damascus as well as terror islamic terror organizations in Lebanon, Syria, "Palestine" and Iraq. He has been given support from a tyrant in Venezuela and a fellow maniac in North Korea. Anywhere there is anti-American and anti-Western sympathies, he has made inroads.

His fellow despot in Damascus is throwing out overtures of peace towards Israel for all the world to see while he rearms and redeploys his own military as well as the terror groups in "Palestine" and Lebanon. The world conveniently refuses to acknowledge this. Despite the Syrian army withdrawing from Lebanon, nothing there has really changed. Now the pro-Syrian insurgents and sympathizers can provide cover for the directing coming from Damascus.

As for the "Palestinian territories", Hamas now rules. They too are led out of Damascus. Having received the vote of the people they have attained a certain perceived level of credibility. The ignorant's that live in the west call it a victory for democracy as if an election was all that was needed to obtain democracy. The "palestinians" are the largest receivers of aid in the history of the UN. They receive more money and food than any other. If money is truly what provides affluence and growth, they should have been the most educated and advanced people on the planet. So much for that dated leftist bunk. Hamas has taken over the Gaza Strip. They will soon start agitating in the West Bank. There is nothing that the PLO can do about. Declaring Hamas illegal in the West Bank is like telling a kid he can't have a cookie. Hamas will only be more obstinate and violent. More "Palestinians" will die as a result of their "election". They chose violence and will now face the consequences.

What does all of this mean? Israel's enemies have allied, armed, and are in the process of setting up a full scale attack on the tiny sliver of a nation. There is not one inch of Israeli land that cannot be hit by these enemies. If an invasion were planned out properly, Israel wouldn't have enough arms or soldiers to defend itself without outside help.

If the enemy attempts this during the present tenure of Ehud Olmert it may stand a chance. If it waits until someone like Benjamin Netanyahu, the story changes. What the enemy does is not as important as what Israel will do. Will it defend the promised land or will it hand it back over to the Canaanites and Philistines?

Do it or die

Once again I will state it: There is no diplomatic solution to the Israel-"Palestinian" conflict. Thanks to Hamas, Syria, Iran, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, Hizbollah, and Islamic Jihad (with the recent addition of AL Quaeda in Gaza and the West Bank) there can never be a political solution. The aforementioned all believe that the entire nation of Israel is on occupied territory. All of the aforementioned have stated in public or in their charters that their goal is to push Israel into the sea. This is not an issue that can be negotiated.

Israel has successfully defended itself since it's inception. Time after time the "Arab" armies have set themselves against Israel only to be beaten back. Only when Israel has succumbed to the "World" has it not achieved it's goals of defense. I have stated often that the "Palestinians" are nothing but cannon fodder being used by Israel's enemies. Everyday I read about how I right I have been.

Unilateral withdraw from Gaza was not the spark to recent developments. Israel should have done as the Arabs did in 1947-48. Once in Gaza they should have evicted the Arab residents. As crass as this sounds it was the only action that could have prevented the events over the last 60 years. Despite propaganda put out by the Arab's, Israel did not kick people out in 1948. The majority of these people left on their own accord. Having returned to Gaza they have done exactly what should have been expected. While the rest of the world wants to negotiate an unattainable truce, Israel has the devil at the door.

I read today that B'Tselem has written a letter to Amir Peretz requesting that he not attack civilians in Gaza:

The letter came in response to calls by several MKs to cut off Gaza's water and electricity. According to B'Tselem, intentionally harming civilian infrastructure constitutes prohibited collective punishment and could also constitute a war crime.

Can someone please explain to me what fantasy world these people come from? The people who are attacking Israel were voted into office by the "Palestinians". Seeing as they view no Israeli as innocent why should Israel not reciprocate in kind? Maybe if there were massive civilian casualties the remainder would turn on Hamas and the others. Then again maybe they would actually take an active part in fighting Israel. This makes it easier to fight a war against those who hide amongst women and children. Israel did not create this monster, they have been trying to fend it off instead of kill it. Maybe it's time the "Palestinian" boogey-man was put out in the light?

The idiots that try to place rules and regulations on the act of war live in a world where everyone fights fair. This world does not exist on this planet. The goal in fighting a war is to win and cause the enemy to abandon it's cause. Fighting with kid gloves will not achieve this. There is no such thing as fighting nice. You either fight to win or you don't fight and you bow to your new master.

I can't say that I am disappointed in Ehud Olmert and his administration because I didn't expect much in the first place. However, being a supporter of Binyamin Netanyahu, his recent comments have caused me much disappointment. Israel does not need a political leader. Israel just needs a LEADER. The answer is not Shimon Peres nor Ehud Barak. Sadly I don't know who fits this bill. Saying the right thing and actually following through are often two different ends of the spectrum when it comes to politics.

Israel needs to reenter Gaza and take it back. Let the world scream. They have done nothing to prevent this. Their action and inaction is what has created this situation. If Israel isn't willing to do what is necessary to protect itself then it will go the way of other failed nations that have allowed itself to be run over. If this happens then I will have wasted my breath and energy defending her.

A Clear Message to Ahmedinajad and the US

At this past week’s summit in the beautiful Sharm Al-Sheikh resort, in the Sinai peninsula, where Iraq’s security and future were discussed, the putrid little maggot, Ahmedinajad and his handlers the Ayatollahs were sent a message, as the Editor-in-Chief of the Arab Times sees it. On his Opinion piece from yesterday, Saturday, May the 5th, he writes:

[…]Participants of the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit decided the US cannot leave Iraq at this juncture to ensure it won’t fall prey to Iran, which is trying to take over this Arab country using its sectarian influence, and the might of its militias and the Revolutionary Guards.Iran should understand the message of this summit and realize the fact that all issues concerning Arabs are represented by Saudi Arabia and Egypt, the two biggest Arab countries. Tehran should know it cannot challenge these two countries because any such move will affect all Iranians and cause alarm bells to ring peace in the Gulf region. Iran should know Arab countries don’t want to see their neighbouring country attacked for its arrogance.

The Iranian regime should understand its real size and limitations, and the role it can play. Leaders of the regime should realize they are not ruling a superpower but a developing country, which is incapable of playing certain roles which don’t suit the rest of the world.

On the sidelines of the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice met Syrian Foreign Minister Waleed Al-Moalem. In the meeting Al-Moalem received a clear message that Syria should wear its original Arab outfit and not somebody else’s clothes. This means Damascus should not help Iran or try to change the reference of Arab issues.
All countries in the Gulf region seek stability and security. They believe only a local and strong country, which does not suffer poverty, unemployment, idle factories, stagnant export and import activities can play a meaningful and substantial role in this issue.

Both Syria and Iran are incapable of playing a substantial international role. Tehran’s attempt to continue with its nuclear programme to increase its “weight” won’t succeed as long as Iran is not self sufficient and suffers a sluggish economy.
The Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit has brought Iraq back under the umbrella of Arab countries. It has returned Arab reference to its original owners and proved that the United States is still capable of leading the world. The summit has proved the Americans have not retreated or weakened. It has also confirmed the United States has not and will not attempt to deal with any “accidental” party other than a reliable Arab reference.

Before I comment let me also quote from his editorial of today: Sunday. May 6th.

IT appears the message of Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit has reached Iran and Syria faster than we expected because Damascus has described the summit the beginning of a thousand miles journey. As the torch-bearers of Sunnis Saudi Arabia and Egypt have launched an initiative to reduce the debts of Iraq and voice their protest against Iraq becoming a battleground to settle the disputes between the United States and Iran.

Tehran, which has also got the message, has chosen to confront the Americans and describe them as supporters of terrorism in Iraq. Tehran believes terrorist activities exploded in Iraq after its occupation by the United States and considers this a good reason to create tense relations with Saudi Arabia. The reaction to the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit has been fast. The summit’s message to Iran was firm and strict. The Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit ordered Tehran to understand its real size, reconsider its regional policies and quit trying to be a reference for Arab issues.

Maybe Iran can support Arab issues, but it doesn’t have the authority to compete and take over the historical reference of the Sunni sect because this role belongs to Saudi Arabia and Egypt. Shiites in Iraq should react to these messages as they don’t belong to Al-Faqaih of Iran as a reference. They should understand their interests are linked to cooperating with the Americans in Iraq. Currently Iran is under pressure to abandon its role in Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine. If it doesn’t it should expect the return of a new Sultan Saleem of the Ottoman Empire, who ended the Sufi movement of Ismail Shah over 500 years ago. The Sufi movement was based on planting hatred against Arabs for the killing of Imam Al-Hussein (PBUH) and members of Prophet Mohammed’s (PBUH) family.

The Iranian regime, which is still being influenced by the movement of Ismail Shah, wants to control the faith of over 1.6 billion Sunni Muslims. By ordering Iran to get out of Lebanon and Iraq, and leave the Palestinians alone the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit stands as a high and solid wall in the face of Tehran’s plans.

The Syrian regime, which considers these orders as the first phase, still has a good opportunity to join the Arab Sunni reference. For this Damascus should stop being a follower of the Iranian regime, which as a minority cannot stand long against Saudi Arabia which played a vital role in giving Iran a second opportunity to avoid further escalations. The Iranian regime has to come back to its senses, especially since the wind is not blowing in the direction of its sail.

In short, gentle reader, the Arab world fully recognizes that not only are today’s Iranian leaders a main source of instability in the region, but they unequivocally declared that an early American exit from Iraq, would mean a disaster for the region and the world at large.

There is also another message here, just as important though somewhat less visible, by ordering Iran to get out of Lebanon and Iraq, and leave the Palestinians alone the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit stands as a high and solid wall in the face of Tehran’s plans. Ahmed Al-Jarallah, who penned both opinions quoted above, also said this past summer at the beginning of Lebanon II, The operations of Israel in Gaza and Lebanon are in the interest of people of Arab countries and the interrnational community. Perhaps, the Arab nation, however reluctantly, and strictly because of its own selfish interest may be signaling Israel that the time for talks has come…

We can discuss ad nauseum whether the US should or should not have gotten into Iraq, but even those who are totally against the coalition forces being in Iraq must concede that the past cannot be changed. Thus we must decide how do we proceed from here. Do we leave Iraq at a previously specified date, thereby causing the whole Middle East to destabilize and igniting a war that will eventually enmesh the entire world in its net? Or do we finish the job, while putting pressure on the democratically elected Iraqi government to step up to the plate and take full responsibility for its country’s re-entry into the brotherhood of civilized nations?

Participants of the Sharm Al-Sheikh Summit decided the US cannot leave Iraq at this juncture… The Summit, where the immense majority of participants were Arab nations but also included the US and representatives of Russia and the European Union, has made it absolutely clear that pandering to Iran would not stem the tide of war, that leaving Iraq at a predetermined date would only embolden the insurgency and destroy the region. Moreover, the summit served notice to the Iranians that, that the United States is still capable of leading the world. The summit has proved the Americans have not retreated or weakened.

Perhaps, Pelosi, Reid, et al will listen to the region’s leaders and their interests, as opposed to listening to George Soros and Moveon.org. Arab leaders are feeling threatened by the US Congress latest moves and, frankly, as long as we have not developed alternate energy sources, the Arabs are much needed. At the same we must understand and let them know, they need the West even more than we need them. The Levant is still a poor, backward area where the ruling elite are the only ones who enjoy a decent standard of living. They desperately need those petrodollars even more than we need their oil.

Yet, the Democrat Party’s strings are pulled by those whose extreme ideas would never get them elected even as dogcatchers. George Soros said right before the last election, right after he spent a fortune (which more than 99% of us will never see in a whole lifetime of hard work) on moveon.org and other such organizations that if George Bush becomes President, he George Soros would join a monastery. Unfortunately his words, like the shreds of his honor, are worthless! Shouldn’t a man of honor, a man of such preeminence have kept his promises rather than continue to shove his bankrupt ideas down the throats of a people who doesn’t want them? Yet Pelosi, Reid and the rest of the Democrats willingly take their cue from such unelected, unelectable, political thugs!

Madame Pelosi, now wants to meet with Chávez, an opportunist increasingly acquiring the full trappings of a dictator. She recently, in spite of requests to the contrary by the State Department, traveled to Syria to rescue Baby Assad from the ranks of international political pariahs. While there, in a goodwill gesture she not only covered her hair with expensive (and stylishly beautiful!) Hermès Scarves as she visited the Damascus market but interestingly… she uncovered her hair and showed her liberal side, when alone with baby Assad… Now she is making new overtures in an effort to meet and hold, close to her bosom, that putrid little maggot, Ahmedinajad…

It is interesting that while hobnobbing with America’s enemies, with those who are trampling on all human rights and killing innocents she would not meet with Colombia’s President Alvaro Uribe, who not only managed to disarm paramilitary groups in his country but has destroyed thousand of acres of cocaine growing fields while Chávez was cited in a UN study as an international drug dealer… If she is truly concerned with human rights violations should she not be consistent in her choice of dancing partners?

It is interesting to note that Pelosi, who run a campaign of ridding Washington of corruption and excessive pork to every bill leaving Congress on its way to the White House, has sent more pork in her first 100 days than any of her predecessors while accomplishing a hell of a lot less than any of her predecessors. It is interesting to note that while she has no interest in meeting America’s friends, she is tripping over herself to rush and embrace America’s enemies. Unless the Democratic Party is willing to return again to be the party of the likes Zel Miller, the party that made America great, a Democratic victory in 2008 only spells the demise of America and the fruition of George Soros’ fondest dream.

Courting Satan

Originally posted at Biga's Rants on 2/7/07

Anyone who has spent, or wasted, time reading my blog realize how much I despise Khalid Mashaal. He is at the top of my list of people who just need killin'. I have often enquired as to why this man is still vertical. I have recommended that any agency serious about peace with Israel could make a move of good faith by killing Mashaal. When Syria made it's bogus overtures of peace I recommended that Bashir Assad's first duty to attain peace with Israel was to kill Mashaal. I completely and utterly despise this man who I have never met nor does he know me. One of my criticisms of Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu was his giving in to former President William Clinton's pressure to provide the antidote to Mashaal after the Mossad had poisoned him. This was straight out of a dime store detective book.

Now it appears that the talks taking place in Mecca between Abu Mazen and Khalid Mashaal are going to provide "legitimacy" to Mashaal. It is being reported that part of the deal to set up a "unity" government with Fatah, Mashaal will be demanding the position of Deputy within the PLO. In the name of "stability and peace" he will get it. Lucifer will then have a position that makes it more likely for him to usurp Abu Mazen and take over the PLO the old fashioned Islamic way, murder. Of course he won't be the one pulling the trigger or detonating the bomb. It will all be under his guise. The trail will lead blatantly back to him and no one will care. To care would be to upset the "critical balance of stability and peace that the Palestinians have been striving for". Poppycock!

Hosni Mubarak was second in command to Anwar Sadat. Sadat was assassinated and Mubarak is still there. Saddam Hussein usurped his own family then massacred hundreds to take his seat of power. Mashaal will top them all in evil deeds. The previous two are/were mere practitioners of evil. Khalid Mashaal is evil itself. If this earth bound he!!spawn is given any level of legitimate power, all is lost. With Mashaal there is no room to have even an ounce of hope. Darkness will have fallen on the Middle East and we might as well wait for the nukes to start flying and blood to flow relentlessly.

Satan has a name, it is Khalid Mashaal. Satan has an army it is the PLO, PA, Hamas, Hizbollah, Fatah, Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, and any other gaggle of ill repute that will pledge friendship and/or allegiance to Khalid Mashaal. I have stated over and over that Abu Mazen was living on borrowed time. If Mashaal is given any position within the PLO he better have all of his insurance paid up and the casket ordered.

Nice Cease Fire / Big Surprise / Gaza Video

It appears that Haniyeh and Abbas are about as affective as Arafat was. A ceasefire followed by gunfights followed by a ceasefire followed by gunfights. Tell me again why the "Palestinians" deserve their own country? They can't get along with themselves let alone their neighbor Israel. I have asked the question twice and I'll ask it again, where is the outrage? Children have been killed in crossfires and bullet sprays and no one in the World Community is up in arms.



Here's a prediction, there will be no peace in the Middle East. Israel will have to fight for it's existence for as long as it can. The rest of the Middle East will continue to be a cesspool of hatred and war. No level of diplomacy will ever solve the problems that these people have. The modern approach to warfare will not solve the problem. Unfortunately only a war of complete annihilation will eradicate the problems in the Middle East. The West has no stomach for this. This being said, we will face acts of terrorism for as long as Islam rules in the Middle East. For every one we kill, they will get ten more.

The Islamists conceive as fast as rabbits and get this kids into anti-Israel and Anti-American madrassas as soon as they can walk. There has been numerous writings on Islamic demographics compared to the "enlightened" west. We will be out numbered in the not so distant future. The Islamists will breed themselves into power. At this point we can expect the Armageddon explained in the Bible.

Reality is not pretty. The problems that the Islamists have are not induced by the west. They are self-induced tragedies that fester and grow by each generation. The laziness of the west will lead to it's own destruction. It won't disappear with a big boom. It will eat away at itself until there is nothing left. What a beautiful world we have built.

More on this:http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3360281,00.html

Hassan Nasrallah is admitting Hizbollah receives support from Iran funneled through Syria. What will the world do? Will the appeasers remain in denial? Will there still be people who refuse to believe what he has said? Will the worlds diplomats still claim we should sit down and talk to Iran? Will they still claim that Syria's overture of peace talks with Israel were legitimate? WIll the people of the world continue to live in an extremely dangerous fantasy world?

"Iran assists the organization with money, weapons, and training, motivated by a religious fraternity and ethnic solidarity," Nasrallah said. "And the help is funneled through Syria, and everybody knows it."

There. It's plain and simple for all to see. How about when he was asked about Hizbollah acting as a state within a state?

"Nasrallah said that the current Lebanese government has yet to fulfill its obligation of securing the release of Lebanese prisoners in Israeli jails, and getting Israeli-occupied land back. Accordingly, Nasrallah said that the people, or part of the people, are free to try and realize those goals by themselves."

He successfully avoided the question and did what any American politician would do and answer what he wanted to. If it continues on it's present course, the Lebanese government will be overthrown in the same manner it was when the Palestinians were allowed to have a say in Lebanese politics. I am no big fan of Fuad Siniora. He is a man that's in way over his head. I don't see the character in him to deal with issues that would be less pressing. The fact that he will not fight to defend himself or his country places him in the same pool with other limpwristed reformers.

Iran and Syria are involved in a was through proxy armies. Hamas and Hizbollah are nothing but the Iranian arm of death. With the admission of Nasrallah, Israel has every right to go after Iran. One sovereign nation is attacking another. To eliminate Hizbollah, the supplies must be cut off. Eliminate the financier and the people will turn on Hizbollah. The sooner this is done, the better.

Syria: Middle East peace not currently possible


Commitment is in the eye of the beholder.

Peace in the Middle East was an impossibility in light of US President George Bush's announcement to send more troops to Iraq, Syrian Foreign Minister Farouk al-Shara said on Thursday, according to a report on Israel Radio.


"There is no reason to expect that the peace process will be restarted without the clear commitment of the Americans," al-Shara said.

Yes but commitment to what?

Meanwhile the perception of our commitment wavers:

The Democratic congressional election victory in November showed that "American voters expect us to help get us out of Iraq," Sen. Joseph Biden of Delaware, a 2008 presidential hopeful and chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, said as his panel heard independent experts on Iraq.


Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana, "The president and his team need to explain what objectives we are trying to achieve if forces are expanded, where and how they will be used," and how long more troops may be needed.

This is political nitpicking in a time of war that will make us vulnerable in the future.

White House: Syrian Visits Hurt Progress

Just who is kissing who's a** here, kafir?
From the Washington Post:

WASHINGTON -- The White House said Thursday that trips to Syria by U.S. lawmakers are a public relations victory for a government that is thwarting democratic reform in the Middle East.


The Bush administration has tried to discourage lawmakers from going to Syria, White House press secretary Tony Snow said. "We think it's inappropriate."


Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Fla., emerged from a meeting with Syrian President Bashar Assad in Damascus on Wednesday, saying Assad was willing to help control the Iraq-Syrian border. Nelson said he viewed Assad's remarks as "a crack in the door for discussions to continue. I approach this with realism, not optimism."


Snow said the trip by Nelson, a member of the Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees, and future visits to Syria expected by Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., and Arlen Specter, R-Pa., send an unhelpful, mixed message to the Syrians.


"The point is that even lending a further specter of legitimacy to that government undermines the cause of democracy in the region," Snow said about Nelson's trip.


The United States has limited diplomatic ties with Syria because of its support of Hezbollah and Hamas, which the United States considers terrorist organizations. Bush expressed reluctance to seek help from Damascus on Iraq until the Syrian government curbs that support and reduces its influence in Lebanon.

Leave it to a useful idiot Democrat Congressman to get the ball rolling on a seriously dangerous suggestion by the Iraq Study Group (who have no authoritative power), to engage with Syria. I think we should pause and reflect lest this NEW DIRECTION for America blinds us to who Syria is already engaged with- Hezbollah and Hamas.

As Goes Lebanon So Goes the Middle East


Watching the news a moment ago my Beloved Curmudgeon noted that the newscast used and entire 3 minute segment on whether or not the United States had been wiretapping Princess Diana prior to her death in 1997. Following that segment, there was a 30 second segment on the looming crisis in Lebanon.

The crisis in Lebanon is of Biblical proportions and yet it only warrents 30 seconds of time on the evening news.

If Lebanon falls, the middle east will be rocked with even more chaos and anarchy. The jihadists are emboldened, thanks to the perceived weakness of the United States. Of course this has been helped along by the constant undermining by the main stream media, the progressives and the silly report put out by Baker and Hamilton.

Our enemies have tried to warn us repeatedly. Our allies are virtually jumping up and down, waving, trying to get our attention. Still, we sit in front of our television sets and PlayStations and ignore the Global War on Terrorism that is swirling all around us. So far, we have been relatively untouched. Not to worry, our ability to ignore the rest of the world is quickly coming to an end.

If Lebanon falls, the same process will begin in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait and Egypt. Then the process will begin in France, England and other European countries with large muslim populations. Israel will not likly be able to survive a scenerio of this magnitude. The only way the United States will be able to survive would be to garner an enormous army.

The students so comfortable in their ivy league schools, who so quickly 'protest' anyone who says something they don't like, and then return to their Mercedes to drive to their suburban homes, will have to take a stand on something that REALLY matters. They will be taken out of their comfort zones this time.

It seems that everyone, but America, understands what's at stake. Everyone. It seems that everyone is attempting to wake Americans up. They can't seem to get our attention and are becoming increasingly desperate. Everyone knows America is the only nation capable of dealing with the enormity of this problem. But America sleeps.

Even worse, America is insisting on sending out messages that we are not willing to do what has to be done to end this. We lack the will. Just like every time in the past that we've buried our heads in the sand, more people will die because of our unwillingness to sacrifice even our most meager comforts.

Pope Benedict XVI calls this a grave moment in history. He pleads with the world to pray for Lebanon and provide assistance. He calls the situation grave and urgent.

I also hope that the international community will help to identify urgent pacific and fair solutions necessary for Lebanon and the entire Middle East, while I invite all to prayer during this grave time.”

The Lebanese people are protesting against hezbollah. Following the assasinations of Christian leaders in Lebanon, the protests have intensified.

Cardinal Sfeir , the highest Christian spiritual authority warned that “wars start with words”. He cautioned that the insults and aggressive statements against government individuals are bad news for Lebanon as they spell evil for the future of this country.


Sfeir warned that no one one is thinking about the Lebanese people, whose aim is to survive with their families in harmony and away from violence. But unfortunately these continued protests are making it impossible to survive, since the economy as a result of these protests is in despair.

Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah is trying to warn the world of the dire consequences should Lebanon fall.

"Our Arab region is besieged by a number of dangers, as if it was a powder keg waiting for a spark to explode," he told the rulers of the oil-rich monarchies gathered in Riyadh for a two-day meeting.


Abdullah warned that Lebanon risked sliding into renewed civil strife as a result of the current standoff between pro- and anti-government camps.


"In Lebanon, we see dark clouds threatening the unity of the homeland, which risks sliding again into... conflict among the sons of the same country," he said.


Israeli leaders are watching the situation with a clear understanding of what it means for Israel.

Israeli officials warned Sunday that the fall of the moderate Lebanese government could lead to the establishment of an Iranian proxy state on Israel's northern border and increase the probability of war between the two nations.


~snip~


"If the Saniora government falls, it means that Lebanon will be controlled by the long arm of Iran,"

Lebanon chaos is Israeli nightmare.
JERUSALEM – Israel is deeply troubled by menacing Hezbollah-led mass demonstrations in Beirut, fearing it could lead to a permanent and dominant Iranian-Syrian presence on its northern border.


~snip~


In that event, Iran again would be able to threaten Israel with massive rocket attacks from Lebanon if Israel or the US takes military action against Iran’s nuclear program. In other words, the Iranians again would be able to use their Hezbollah card to deter Israel from trying to stop Iran from going nuclear.


~snip~


“If Hezbollah gains sway in Beirut, Lebanon will become the first Iranian protectorate.”

This dire, urgent, grave, evil situation is unfolding right now and our media determines it should get 30 seconds of coverage in the evening news. The warning signs are everywhere and still America sleeps.. The longer we avoid this conflict, the more will die because of it.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Raven at And Rightly So calls these our Days of Infamy.

I got to thinking…the winds of weakness are coming over America once again. With the Lemoncrats ™ in charge of the House now, and that Iraq Study Group report upon us- have we forgotten the days of our infamy? Does December 7th and September 11th have any pull at all, anymore?

I think not.
