Iran forces urged to prepare to hit Israel

August 1939 Alert from Reuters, with thanks to all who sent this in:

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran's hardline forces should get ready to take revenge on Israel and the United States for the offensive on Lebanon, the head of the Revolutionary Guards was quoted as saying on Sunday.

"The Basij and Revolutionary Guards should prepare to get even with the Zionists and Americans," Yahya Rahim-Safavi was quoted as telling Islamic militiamen by the conservative Fars news agency.

IRANs Ahmadinejad and the Ayatollahs have been promising an attack on Israel "soon". Israel has been notified and I pray they are preparing. The United States should also be preparing. The Iranians should be wary of the boomer subs lurking nearby.
Ahmadinejad could be the Anti-Christ that ignites mass death and destruction that ultimately results in good finally winning. He should be wary, but he is not.

Take revenge? Why would practitioners of the world's most peaceful religion want revenge? Doesn't make any sense...

Iran and its terrorist agents are the provocateurs, and the provokers of all the instability that has been occurring throughout the middle east.

There is no doubt that they want this confrontation with the western world and they are determined to make it happen one way or another.

Just as Osama Bin laden worked to draw the Islamic world into the state of dar-al-harb and the call for jihads against America by masterminding attacks in Somalia,the Riyad towers,the USS Cole, and the attack on the World Trade center and the pentagon.

Hah hah. I'd love to see them take on the US and Israel at the same time.

We have the skies over Iraq, so Israel should strike Iran now. Surprise them and Imadingdong won't know what hit him.

The "international community" persists in attempting to limit the Israelis in their attempt to prevent missiles from raining down on half of Israel. Such journalists as Jim Muir of the BBC persist in turning their reports into al-Jazeera-like propaganda fests, with just a touch of TASS and Der Stuermer not very far beneath the surface, in the hysteria of the claims, the language chosen, the complete gullibility in both the photographs (go to EU Referendum, a link to which is supplied today at www.littlegreenfootballs.org, and look at the careful analysis of photographs coming from Qana, and once you have thoroughly digested that material, take a look at the photograph from Qana, of that Israeli "atrocity," that "carnage," that "agony" inflicted for no apparent reason, just out of the blue, by those bloodthirsy Israleis, that can be found on the front page of -- you guessted it -- The New Duranty Times.

If this kind of thing goes on, that "international community" - or for that matter a panicky Bush-Rice adminisetration, really beliving this nonsense about "winninng Arab hearts and minds" and creating a "new Middle East" (they are hallucinators, they don't know where to put their feet and hands, and even when they get a policy right, it is always for reasons that are incoherent and are not part of any larger and more intelligent scheme of things or based on any deep understanding)-- then the Israelis, being sensible, will have to consider much more seriously the demonstrative use of a nuclear weapon or two, whether in Iran, or alonog one of its borders (say, in the Sinai) in order to create a permanent no-man's-land, and to signal to other neighbors that the days of nonsense and negotiation and surrendering territory and being willing to be so prodigal with the lives of its citizens, or to live in a permanent state of maximum peril -- are over, and for good.

The Lesson of Darura -- Darura is not a town,but rather a concept -- has to be learned by the Arabs and Muslims. But it cannot be learned if the Israelis themselves do not start, at long last, drawing some conclusions. And there is one obvious conclusion that should be drawn from this war with Hezbollah: the forces arrayed against Israel are more formidable in their weaponry and training than the Israelis have dared to realize, and they cannot take those famous "risks for peace" that the dumber among them keep prating about. There should be no further discussion of ever leavintg a single dunam of the West Bank. The possibility of that West Bank turning into Hezbollahland should by now be obvious. Israel cannot take that risk. Nor can it simply have military "occupation." It must not only remain as both a civilian and military presence, but had best go back, draw attention to the intent, and precise provisions, of the Mandate for Palestine, draw attention to the border adjustments that have marked every major war (see the Alto Adige formerly known as the Sudtirol, see Czechoslovakia, Poland, Germany, Alsace-Lorraine, see all kinds of places), and make clear that the innocence about the limitless demands of Isalm (Islam does not tell its followers to "compromise with Infdiels" or "leave the Infidels some territory in which Islam will not dominiate" -- no, not at all.)

Whether or not the moral idiots now reporting from Lebanon, and being echoed by their press in Western Europe, will sympathize with this, will even begin to understand it, does not matter. What the U.N. or the E.U., both thoroughlin infiltrated by agents of the only bloc remaining, the Islamintern International, doesn't matter.

Whatever else the world's nauseating reaction has shown, it -- and the behaavior of Hezbollah that has been given a pass -- offers one more, this one a decisive reason, for never again even thinking about giving up more territory. There has to be a learning curve. For the Israelli elites in government and the media, that curve has been virtually flat. Not now, one hopes. Now one hopes that one will be able to detect signs of a curve, ever upward. And if the Israelis can start to exhibit some common sense, then perhaps some of that common sense about Islam and its demands will actually spread to Western Europe and to an Adminstration that thinks only of fighting a "war on terror," side-by-side with the members of the Da'wa and Sciri parties in wonderful, true-blue Iraq.

So much nonsense. A clearing of the mental air in Israel would help.

I almost thought this was from a current report. Things have not changed in some 60 years. What makes anyone thinks Islamists seek peace? They are seeking the complete destruction of Israel, and or any other non-Islamic country or race - hello, America, Europe?.

These guys are bigots fueled with terroristic tactics... Consider them a Ku Klux Klan for Islam. Islamic Power. What kind of message do you think we need to send?

This has been Iran's "win-win" strategy all along -- either Israel rolls over and plays dead in the face of Iranian-sponsored acts of terror from their recently bought friends in Gaza and their proxies in Lebanon, or Israel hits hard and provides Iran with the pretext to do more than supply Hezbollah with thousands of missiles and Iranian Revolutionary Guardsmen with the tech expertise to fire them.

Now it's down to whether Tehran feels vulnerable to attacks from the US and any European countries if they do attack Israel directly instead of using their proxies. Given the official condemnation of Hezbollah from Saudi Arabia et al, as screwed up as the Iranians are, they have to be worried that their Sunni rivals may actually actively help the US out.

If this kind of thing goes on, that "international community" - or for that matter a panicky Bush-Rice adminisetration, really beliving this nonsense about "winninng Arab hearts and minds" and creating a "new Middle East" (they are hallucinators, they don't know where to put their feet and hands, and even when they get a policy right, it is always for reasons that are incoherent and are not part of any larger and more intelligent scheme of things or based on any deep understanding)


I have a very low assessment of Bush-Rice's understanding of what they are dealing with and often wonder if these two are drunk, stupid, or are in some inexplicable state of denial as to the nature of the islamic enemy.

Does Condi not understand or is she refusing to understand the vile contempt these islamists have for her personally and for any peace plan that she could conceive no matter how fair it could be?

I find the depiction of Condi in the following link egregigious and offensive; yet it is instructive in light of the comments made by Mr. Fitzgerald and recent history bringing to light the kind of enemy with whom she seeks a peace accord:

http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=51298

Where is the outrage!? Or is this outrage depicting Rice (she is our Secretary of State like it or not) this way permissible in deference to being politically correct toward islam?

To quote that legendary Vietnam band-of-brothers brother John Forbes Kerry, Bring it on!

What exactly is the 'international community'? Does an yodeler in Basil, or a llama guide in Peru really care on what happens between Israel and Lebanon? Isn't 'international community' an euphamism for the diplomatic core elites worldwide, who belong to an exclusive club, and (excepting the Muslim and Communist groups) are typically only too happy to ignore the interests of their respective countries?

To quote that legendary Vietnam band-of-brothers brother John Forbes Kerry, Bring it on!


and lest us forget the "An effete corps of impudent snobs ..." comment by one Spiro T Agnew.

Ahhh...the days of yore; when the political elites showed some understand of current events and fired off quotes well worth recollection regardless of our agreement or not.

Now this I gotta see! Iran has a large and well trained army but virtually no combat experience. Israel on the other hand has battle hardened troops with some of best technology, advanced weaponry, and the chutzpah to use it. In a conventional warfare scenario Israel will prevail.

My greatest fear is that other Muslim nations will join in an attempt to finish off Israel. If that happens we will have no choice but to guarantee Israel's existance politically and militarily. Any other action on our part will mean Israel will have to play it's nuclear card. I wouldn't have a clue as to what the consequences of that would be.

At least they announce their intent. Kinda makes it harder for a sneak attack. We should be so lucky to have such stupid enemies!
