Military Man: "Hint, would not be opening this thread unless I knew it was going to be happenning soon."
Greetings, Military Man. I always look forward to your posts!
In your estimated opinion, how soon? I won't hold you to it.
In my opinion, I believe Syria will smite Israel on or before May 14, 2008
What do you think?
Thanks!
Again, the next flash point is the 16th of April through next Sunday. But, but, but, tension will reman high until troops are removed from the border by Syria and the Hezbollah has succeeded in hitting Israel with some type of attack, be it terror or missile, where they can save face and say they hit Israel back for her (supposed) hit n their leader.
Even if Syria backs off, the Iranian issue is so overwhelmingly huge that the next step is that Israel MUST take action on Iran is the U.S. did not.
Well, during that timeframe there is a Full Moon.
Thankyou for your honesty, Military Man.
Full Moon or No...Syria is going to get something that they so richly deserve.

Assad: Who's there?
IAF: It's the SAMSON OPTION, Bro!

Any arab attack will begin with missiles and terror bombings that do not require the military to hide under cover of pure darkness but even moonlight. The Hezbollah are famous for fighting in the daylight as well as night. Their hope is to hit hard and everywhere -delaying Israeli military aircraft from taking off from damaged runways and military as well as joe citizens coping with deadly chemicals and other unpleasantries of the massive missile barrages. |

the postulations here silly.
IF Israel is hit by chemicals then small gangs of terrorists will be most in danger because they won't be protected from their own assets.
None of the groups in Gaza or WB have the numbers or capabilities to "sneak" out and attack well defended Israeli airstrips.
Missile attacks have proven totally useless in harming Israel in a serious way.
I think it is obvious that Israel and the US are gearing up to launch an attack, and if the attacked partys retaliate they will be accused of being the agressors. |

More going on here in Israel. Not a surprise for us here.
Barak Announces Closure on PA Areas
(IsraelNN.com) Defense Minister Ehud Barak announced Wednesday that the IDF would be imposing a closure on Palestinian Authority-controlled areas in Judea and Samaria until after the Passover holiday. The closure is meant to prevent terrorist violence, as terrorist groups often prefer to strike on Jewish holidays and other special occasions.
During the closure, PA Arabs will not be allowed to enter pre-1967 Israel except in case of medical emergency, or other humanitarian concern.
Police will be on high alert throughout the week of Passover. Police began increasing their manpower on Wednesday.

Military man that is interesting indeed. I was just about to post that the IAF has launched another strike in Gaza and reports are 9 dead. Is this in your opinion the escalation from Gaza before Hezbollah and Syria strike. I remember reading awhile ago where you said there would be a escalation on several fronts as Iran set off their war. I thought I read somewhere maybe DEBKA that Assad was to release the investigation findings tomorrow the 17th on who killed Hezbollah's commander. Alot going on for sure but this Gaza thing looks like it may have gone beyond the point of no return. |

Military Man and Mossad Wife - we've seen a steady escalation in hositilities in southern Israel and Gaza since this time yesterday. What's the mood over there - are we going to see this escalate like we did last month right up to the brink of an Israeli invasion of Gaza
Also, it strikes me like the upcoming Passover holiday may be a symbolic time for Hezbollah (or their cohorts) to retaliate for the Imad assasination |

It does appear that it is all culminating in bringing things to the edge, whether they are ready to jump off that edge into war is still in question. I am sure Assad is prepping his troops right now about when to attack. |

Gaza on verge of eruption
[link to www.ynetnews.com]
Posted on Wednesday, April 16, 2008 2:01:04 PM by jhpigott
Hamas faces unprecedented crisis, as Israel, Egypt prepare for flare-up Alex Fishman 4/16/08
Egypt asked Israel to put its forces along the Gaza Strip border on alert, while at the same time the Egyptian army is on special deployment on the Philadelphi Route and south of it. Officials in Israel and Egypt estimate that Gaza is on the brink of eruption that may be violently manifested on the Strip’s border with the two countries.
Israeli security officials estimate that Hamas’ Gaza regime has reached a dead-end and is facing an unprecedented crisis not seen since it took over the Strip. Hamas has no real answers to the distress of the Palestinian public and the last resort is a flare-up on the borders.
At Egypt’s request, and after power outages started in the Strip Tuesday, Israel decided to renew the supply of fuel to Gaza power stations as of Wednesday. Israel also agreed to turn a blind eye to the concentrations of Egyptian forces and weapons deployed near the Philadelphi Route these days even though they are forbidden by the peace treaty.
In light of the crisis in Gaza, Egypt put the special forces it brought into Sinai on alert and reiterated the threat to open fire at Palestinians who attempt to breach the wall it built along the Philadelphi Route.
The sense of suffocation faced by the Hamas regime in the Strip stems first and foremost from its isolation in the Arab world. Hamas’ ties with Egypt have hit a nadir. The Syrians, meanwhile, invited Mahmoud Abbas to the Arab League convention in Damascus, while Khaled Mashaal was not invited and Hamas members could not participate, even as observers. This move seriously undermined Hamas’ status.
And if that’s not enough, the contacts with Israel on the Shalit deal are stuck, Hamas failed to elicit European support for removing the political and economic boycott it faces, and the Yemenite mediation attempts between Hamas and Fatah have failed.
The Hamas regime has no legitimacy and it has failed to present any diplomatic achievement. Hamas’ only achievements are in the military arena: The improvement of rockets and weapons, the digging of tunnels, etc. The rest is stuck, and Strip residents are crying out.
Private sector collapse
Yet while Hamas is boycotted, Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salam Fayyad is receiving international aid to the tune of about $2 billion a year. Fayyad pays 77,000 PA public service workers in Gaza salaries totaling tens of millions of dollars so they do not switch sides and maintain their allegiance to the Ramallah-based PA.
On the other hand, since Hamas took power, about 90,000 people in Gaza lost their jobs. The “private sector” in the Strip in fact collapsed.
Just like in Israel, Gaza is also facing a water crisis because of the rainless winter. Some wells are contaminated while others are below the red line. The fuel crisis reached such extent that Hamas itself finds it difficult to engage in motorized patrols along the Strip’s main routes. Recently we have been hearing criticism regarding the corruption of the Hamas apparatus, and we should recall that we are talking about a regime that was considered to be free of corruption up until now.
Meanwhile, the civilian population constantly fears the IDF’s anti-terror attacks; clashes with the IDF cause casualties almost every day. Hundreds of wounded Palestinians are at the hospital and at home, surrounded by thousands of bitter families.
Voices in the Strip are calling to extend the fighting to the West Bank, in order to utilize another pressure lever on Israel. Also, a UN envoy to the Mideast offered the Palestinians and Israel a plan to deploy a multinational force along the Philadelphi Route that would enable the opening of the Rafah crossing under the supervision of Abbas’ forces. However, Hamas does not accept this solution, while Israel wonders which states would agree to send their troops to the Philadelphi Route.
At this time, the sense in Israel and in Egypt is that Gaza is on the eve of a violent outburst. |

I am still intrigued by the following:
"U.S. national security adviser Stephen Hadley was in Israel on Wednesday discussing security cooperation with political and security leaders and U.S. support to confront a possible Iranian strike.
Hadley's visit came as Israel on Tuesday successfully tested a mock ballistic missile, the Blue Sparrow, simulating an Iranian attack after the latter boasted developing longer-range missiles that Israel thinks could ultimately be armed with nuclear warheads.
Little information was available on Hadley's discussions, but Israeli media speculated his visit was linked to connecting Israel to an American ballistic missile early warning system to warn of rocket attacks from Iran."

Military Man does it sound to you that Israel is readying for a strike from Hezbollah/Syria or they are preparing to strike Iran's nuke sites. I have seen a very big escalation in Gaza with the IAF airstrikes and the 3 IDF soldiers who were killed. Also the Qassams are falling in a huge amount today as well after a period of calm. Can you give any info on Assad. I had heard he was going to give the findings of the Hezbollah commanders death on the 17th. We could be seeing something real soon it looks like. Tomorrow through Sunday is the period to really watch right? |
