'Will Israel Strike Iran Without US Assistance?'
By J. D. Longstreet (09/02/08)
"Israel will not agree to allow Iran to achieve nuclear weapons and will take whatever means are necessary to prevent Teheran from achieving its nuclear goals, the government recently decided in a special discussion." (From: The Israeli Insider)
It now appears that no matter what the US decides about Iran, Israel has decided to act. It will be a separate ISRAELI attack, reports say an "Independent military strike", for which plans are now in "high gear'. You can read the details at the "Israeli Insider" here: http://israelinsider.ning.com/profiles/blog/show?id=2018399%3ABlogPost%3A4649
Reports tell us that both the McCain Camp and the Obama Camp have been advised of Israel's decision. The time frame for such an attack is said to be within 18 to 24 months.
It seems to us that Israel has no other choice. Iran has set a course for self-destruction and refuses to be deterred by any actions, such as sanctions, in her all out drive to manufacture an Atomic Bomb.
Without US help with air borne tankers and such, Israeli pilots, making the sortie on Iran, may be making a suicide run without enough fuel to return to their home bases in Israel. Rest assured the Israeli pilots know this. It is a sacrifice they, apparently, are ready to make if it will secure their homeland Israel… even if only for a few short years.
It is reported that Israel has asked the US for special munitions to destroy the underground nuclear facilities of the Iranians. These may well be munitions that only the US can supply, and… the US has refused them. You can read the article for yourself at: http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1010938.html
But, don't count the Israelis out. They have some of the brightest minds on the globe and it wouldn't surprise me if, by the time the Israeli fighter-bombers launch toward Iran, they were laden with Israeli made "bunker busters" of their own.
The Israeli-Iranian conflict has been brewing for a very long time and in our opinion, the US should step aside and allow Israel to "take care of business". Israel cannot absorb a nuclear attack on their home soil and survive. They know that. Their backs are against the wall and they have no intention of cowering like frightened sheep.
As at Belshazzar's Feast, the "Handwriting is on the Wall", this time, for the Iranians. The words written by that miraculous finger of that moving hand were: MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN". Interpreted they mean: "God has numbered your days. You have been weighed in the scales and found wanting". The interpretation went on to say that that very night Belshazzar's kingdom would be taken away and divided among his enemies. That same night Belshazzar's body lay dead upon the cold floor of what had been, a few hours earlier, his palace.
The warnings are there, for Iran, just as plainly written as the moving finger wrote the warning to Belshazzar. Sadly, I have no doubt the leaders of Iran will react in the same arrogant manner, as did Belshazzar, and succumb to the same end as the once great king. For God, Himself, made Belshazzar another promise. He said: "Thou fool. This night thy soul will be required of thee." Soon, thereafter, Belshazzar's soul had departed his lifeless body.
The warning signs are there for Iran. They neglect to heed them at their own peril.
