Is this WW3?

[Marlboroman]

Ok, I just got done watching allot of CNN, Foxnews, and MNBC.

What strikes me as alarming is that, Isreal's response to two soldiers being kidnapped seems atleast to me to be way out of proportion.

To have to soldiers taken hostage, and immediatly start lighting off rockets doesnt sound to me like they are willing to come to any negotiating table to find a solution ather than war.

Another thing that alarms me is that Hezballa hasnt come forward to claim responsibility for the kidnapping. But Iran has come forward to say they had nothing to do with it. And the initial act vs reply strikes a strong resemblance to the actions that Hitler used to invade Poland.

Is this how it starts? are we watching WW3 in the begining stages?

Man, I hope not, and this really makes me want to light up a bowl.

I certainly hope it's not the beginning of WW3, but I find myself worried about that problem considering how closely Iran seems to be linked to the actions against Israel. Then I think of how much they hate us, too, and how much we support Israel. Then I think of Russia's feelings about us as well as North Korea's.

Then I not only want to light up a bowl but also take a tranquilizer, too, just to take the edge off before the weed kicks in.

I agree that Israel's response is way out of proportion. I suppose that's because its response is really about thousands of years of anger and frustration rather than about the recent kidnapping of two soldiers.

I almost hate to say it too BG, mainly because I run the risk of being called a conspiracy theorist and all, but I really have to consider the option that these guys were not kidnapped at all, or possibly kidnapped by allied forces.

Given the covert operations Isreal and the US have been in on together in the past, USS Liberty, its not a far stretch from reality to make the consideration.

I think that's something to ponder, and I don't think it makes you a wacko to consider it. . . .

Israeli Terrorist Forces Use New Unconventional Weapons Killing Body Cells, Exposing Bones, Causing Amputations


He continued, "The hospital is central and sees almost all cases of injuries and deaths as a result of Israeli bomb attacks against the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip. These Israeli bombings are entering the body and fragmenting, causing internal combustion leading to up to fourth degree internal burns, exposing the bone, and affecting the tissue and skin." The doctor added, "These tissues die, they do not survive, which obliges us to perform arm or leg amputations, and there are fragments which penetrate the body and do not show up on X-rays. When entering the body they spark like a combustion firearm, but not chemically. They seem radioactive." He confirmed that there were dozens of wounded legs and arms. Many of them had been burned from the inside, and distorted to the point that they cannot return to life again.

Ministry of Health report on toxic Israeli weapons confirmed by Gaza City medical sources

PNN, (Gaza City) Bisan Hisham 13 July 06

Director of Public Relations at Gaza Cityâ??s Al Shifa Hospital, Dr. Juma Al Saqqa, confirmed the Palestinian Ministry of Healthâ??s report from earlier this week which stated that Israeli forces are using toxic weapons in the Gaza Strip.

The doctor spoke on Thursday, giving the death count at 85 Palestinians in the Strip since the latest Israeli attack began. Among the dead are 34 children under the age of 13. And as of Thursday afternoon, 300 Palestinians are injured.

Dr. Al Saqqa told Voice of Palestine Radio that the Israeli army is using new types of unconventional weapons against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip during the recent attacks. He said, "They are targeting the Palestinian body with unconventional weapons and with that comes a phenomena we have not seen before in any Israeli bombardment we have lived through for many years."

He continued, "The hospital is central and sees almost all cases of injuries and deaths as a result of Israeli bomb attacks against the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip. These Israeli bombings are entering the body and fragmenting, causing internal combustion leading to up to fourth degree internal burns, exposing the bone, and affecting the tissue and skin."

The doctor added, "These tissues die, they do not survive, which obliges us to perform arm or leg amputations, and there are fragments which penetrate the body and do not show up on X-rays. When entering the body they spark like a combustion firearm, but not chemically. They seem radioactive."

He confirmed that there were dozens of wounded legs and arms. Many of them had been burned from the inside, and distorted to the point that they cannot return to life again.

Yesterday, Wednesday, was one of the most bloody of all in the recent attacks. Israeli forces killed 25 Palestinians. Dr. Al Sakka said, "It is escalating day after day. Yesterday alone Israeli forces killed 25 and injured dozens. Among them so many were children."

Dr. Al Sakka revealed that the Israelis completely destroyed by the lab which would help in diagnosing such cases. "We no longer have the ability to make these examinations on phenomena that we see is not normal."

He called on the international community to examine the latest weapons however the doctor reported that "no one has lifted a finger." Dr. Al Sakka complained that he did not see any foreign medical institution interested in the use of new weapons and their effects on the human body. He said, "What we found were journalists who came to take pictures, but as for the medical community, nothing."

Hezbollah officials announced the kidnapping on the terror organisationâ??s television channel, al-Manar. The Hezbollah has claimed responsibility for these attacks.

The Israel-Lebanon border: history of terror

On 24 May 2000, the government of Israel completed the withdrawal of its forces from southern Lebanon to the international border, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 425. The primary objective of this action was to ensure the security of Israel and its citizens, and to promote stability and peace in the region. Israel declared that it has no territorial aspirations in Lebanon, and hopes to see the Lebanese government restore and exercise its sovereignty and authority throughout the border region from which Israeli forces have left.

Israelâ??s full implementation of the Resolution 425 and its withdrawal to the international border did not stop the ongoing terror attacks conducted by Hezbollah and other terror organisations operating from Lebanon. The Lebanese government has in fact failed to act against these terror groups operating in its territory and secure the calm and security of the international border between Israel and Lebanon. In the ongoing terror attacks that have occurred since the Israeli withdrawal in 25 May 2000, 21 Israeli citizens have been killed and 71 wounded.

In June 2005 parliamentary elections were held in Lebanon. Although they did not win an outright victory, Hezbollah maintained a significant presence in Lebanese politics. The two Shiite terror organisations, Hezbollah and Amal, account for about 25 percent of the representatives in parliament. This highlights a broad base of support the two terror groups receive amongst the Shiite population in Lebanon, who make up 40 percent of the population. The outcome of the elections and Hezbollahâ??s current parliamentarian participation continues to undermine the stability of the Lebanese state.

The international community, including the UN Security Council has repeatedly called upon the Lebanese government to dismantle Hezbollah and other terror organisations operating under its jurisdiction. The Lebanese government has failed to abide by these international demands. In fact, a Hezbollah member is a minister in the Lebanese government; thus the terror organisation is receiving de facto recognition and support from the state of Lebanon.

If ANY country put up with this type of crap on this scale for so long...they'd be saying enough is enough too! If Lebanon were to go to the U.N. and ask for assistance in getting rid of Hezbollah, I'm sure the bombs would stop....don't count on THAT though.

Have a good one!:thumbsup:

It doesn't seem like WW3 but the U.S. is using the Jews to instigate Iran, and perhaps Syria. Until Russia says "back off or else"... you won't see cooler heads prevail. But if they don't intervene U.S. conservatives and the Jews know it's their last chance to have a knock down drag out for land and oil... otherwise, a democratic congress will likely pull the plug on further U.S. expansion in the region.

The good news is Bush can no longer characterize further conflict as a war on terror.

Sooooooo Hezbollah is like a church group that is all about peace and love??? Come on now.....HOW MUCH does one country have to take before they take action?

This is the key:
Lebanon is currently in violation of Resolution 1559 over its refusal to disband the military wing of Hezbollah.

If they were taking care of buisiness in the first place there would have been no kidnapped troops, no bombs, etc..............

Have a good one!:thumbsup:
