This is no surprise. Sunni jihadists in Syria have said that the liberation of “Palestine” will follow Assad’s fall. And Hizballah, of course, is no less dedicated to the destruction of Israel. They may exhaust each other, however, before they can ever get close to harming Israel.
“Netanyahu: Syrian Border Full of Jihad and Hezbollah Terrorists,” from the Jewish Press, March 18:
The “border with Syria has lately been full of jihad and Hezbollah terrorists, placing us with a new challenge, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told the Likud party caucus Tuesday.
Speaking shortly after a bomb, apparently planted by Hezbollah, exploded at an Israeli patrol and wounded three soldiers, he added, “We have succeeded to maintain quiet against the civil war in Syria, and we will continue to act with aggressiveness to maintain the security of Israel.”

It is just as well that Israel holds the Golan Heights, the Military High Ground. If they did not hold the Heights – gained in defensive warfare – then their situation right now on that front would be much, much worse.
NO non-Muslim Power has any right to shriek at Israel that they should give the Golan to the Muslims. Anyone who demands that Israel give the Golan to Muslims is a person who either does not understand military realities and history, or who understands them very well and, so understanding, desires the destruction of Israel.
Israel is in possession and command of the Golan (the name “Golan” is in fact a Hebrew name, and very ancient) and, in order to have a chance of surviving in a very dangerous neighbourhood, Israel must continue in possession and command of the Golan.

agreed.
are they gathering and rallying pre strike? are they Syrians? or an international force? (syria is lawless) they could be any body.
i wonder about the boarder movement in ‘palestine’ and lebanon.

With any luck, the Sunni jihadists and Hezbulshaitan will start killing each other.
@DDA: I am by no means a Dispensational fundamentalist, and have made it clear that the focus of God’s plans in history is that community of Jews and Gentiles gathered around M’shiach rather than a state in the Middle East. But I completely concur that Israel should keep the Golan Heights (plus a few other parts of ancient Israel’s patrimony).
Further, were I President and dealing with a nuclear-armed Iran, I would pass a message to Tehran through the proper channels that if they or one of their clients (Hamas or Hezbulshaitan, for instance) sneak a device into our country and detonate it, or lob something from near offshore, 25 top Iranian cities and strategic sites would go up in nuclear smoke within 24 hours. And should they protest that Hamas and Hezbulshaitan are not their responsibility, I’d wave a dozen and a half Iranian proclamations of their sponsorship in their faces. The threat would also hold good for US Allies under our nuclear umbrella.

Muslims killing Muslims increases the presence of the Allah entity.
It is Allah that has to be killed.

There is one problem ?
The muslims rely so much on the word of their ghosts & god that they carry such a heavy seed of doubt ?
Under every angry word a muslim shouts hangs a worry that maybe the Jews are right ?
After all they don’t not agree with the Jews on history they just claim that the Jews changed the words & their Man made it right.
It is like dirty harry when he ask’s “do you feel lucky punk”.
The Arab muslims are shit scared that God may actually have the Jews back.
Ps: The picture ? the second guy the lillywhite with the chinese made gun must just be a paid extra to fill the shot, actually they are all white !
