Is it the 1939 story of the start of WWII when Nazi Germany took over Chezkoslovakia is coming back only that it is now with the radical Islamic Iranian regime taking over the Middle East only to oust US troops…? Clearly, The Iranian radical Islamic apocalyptic Ahmadinajad was recently talking about his religious holy relations with the Islamic Imam 12th and called for ‘bringing him back’. Now Ahmadinajad is rushing forward to take over the entire Middle East and beyond using his Islamic terrorist suicide bombers that took today over parts of Beirut and took over the news networks of the lame duck Lebanese government. Evidently, US troops are ‘busy’ fighting from house to house in the streets of Sadr City against Ahmadinajad’s Al Sadr Mehdi Army Islamic terrorists and killing few of them every day while the Iranian regime is taking over Lebanon. This is all happening fast after that the Iranian regime’s Hamas Islamic terrorists took over Gaza recently and are making efforts to take control of the West Bank from the Abbas Islamic terrorist’ of Fattah.
The Syrian regime of Assad is cooperating with the Iranian regime with WMDs missile warheads that they have got from Iraq tyrant Saddam in 2003.
Nevertheless, President Bush cannot care less about the falling of Lebanon and the entire Middle East in the hands of the Iranian regime and the fact that US will soon will need to purchase oil from Ahmadinajad at $500 or more for oil barrel that will destroy US economy. President Bush is busy in his last months in office fighting for securing few oil rigs in Iraq while allowing the Iranian regime to get the nukes and dirty bombs in the hand of the Islamic terrorist and to take over the entire Middle East.
President Bush is still working on maps of the West Bank and the Jewish cities that he desire to uproot and cleanse only to give them to the Iranian regime rule for a delusional Chamberlain style ‘peace’ between the Jews and the Iranian regime Satan. Is it time for Bush as the lame duck leader of the free world to wake up and save the world from a new WWIII?

This is the first step in the Iranian invasion of Israel. The Airports in Syria and Lebanon will have a lot of traffic from Iran such as weapons and volunteer jihadists. The ports will also be busy too. Look for an all out war in the summer. The Palestinian government no longer exists as a ruling body and that will be second front for Israel. This is going to bang up summer.

This is a test for Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egupt,
Kuwait the UAE and any remants of civlized society
in the MIddle East. It is not just about Israel-this
is about Jihad. And while it is true President Bush is
being manipulated over a barrel of oil, and Jimmy
Carter is still playing the fool of terrorists, But Israel
is not confused. This is about survival of free
society. The comparrison between Hitler marching
through Europe is apt. Ultimately these crazies
will be defeated...but the price is going to be high.
The longer the world waits to step up to Islamic
facisim the more costly the confrontation.

Only a matter of time.

I'm not worried about the Israelis. They can take care of themselves. They've been doing it for 60 years now. It's not our job to police the world.
If we weren't so dependent on foreign oil, we probably wouldn't even care what happens in the Middle East. Just like we don't care what happens in Africa.

The afore mentioned countries all support terrorism to some extent. One day we will wake up and realize that we are not fighting an ideological war but a theological one.

Well said. This is not an ‘internal matter' of Lebanon but a major danger to the entire Middle East and its oil fields that can be set on fire.
Clearly the Jews in Israel that are the ‘main target’ of the Iranian regime that seek to bring ‘the 12th Imam’ are only 'few miles' from Hezbollah Islamic terrorist that took over Beirut.
The Jews are now surrounded by the Iranian regime's Islamic terrorists of all organizations from all sides of their border except the Med. Sea.
US troops in Iraq that are busy doing the tiny things of fighting in the streets of Iraqi cities from house to house and killing one Islamic terrorist or two every day.
It makes sense that 160,000 US troops may be doing something more important to stop the Iranian regime like bombing the Iranian ‘head of the snake’ and taking him out to see his 12th Imam in Islamic paradise with 72 girls.
The inaptness of President Bush to address the Iranian evil regime hazard to the civilized world and stop the radical Islamic apocalyptic madness that killed more than 1000 of US troops in Iraq with no retaliation is bad news.
President Bush as the leader of the civilized world cannot close his eyes and disregard the danger to the civilized world from the Iranian evil regime.
In fact, the civilized world can lose to the Iranian regime the oil fields in the Middle East that are 42% of the world resources.
It is a moment of truth for the Bush administration that failed miserably in their Middle East policy to save US position in the Middle East that suffered major blow.

A couple of idiots say to throw some nukes in the area and everything will be fine! As if something like that will not affect Israel. Why don't we throw those nukes on top of your stupid heads, big pieces of shit!!

Hizbullah Training Sunni Terrorists at ‘Furious Pace’
Hizbullah is training new terrorists, including Sunni Muslims,“at a furious pace,” sending them to Iran for 45-day advanced training, the Christian Science Monitor reported. It quoted a terrorist, named Jawad, who said,“The holy fighters are leaving universities, shops, places of work to go and train.” Hizbullah traditionally has been popular among the Shi’ite sect of Islam, and attracting support from the Sunnis would make it an even more powerful force in strife-torn Lebanon as described at :

When he's not hanging out with his terrorists buddies he's hanging out with Castro in Cuba or going down to venezuala to certify the election of another communist. Maybe carter could take over for Raul Castro.

Jones, why are you so ignorant ? Why do you just throw names, made-up-on-the spot statistics and disparate organisations into your spiel of words which almost seems to make sense, but a minute or two with Google shoots down in rather pathetic flames ?
Are you a paid propaganda shill hoping that you'll touch people stupider than you, or are you really as ignorant as you seem ?

The Mahdi Army, and Moqtada have NOTHING to do with Iran, nor support Iranian influence in Iraq, which is why they oppose the puppet government, which, because the mindless neocon idiots who lead you have possibly missed, is PRO-IRANIAN.

What are the Jews in Iran doing about all this, Jones ? Or is it only the Jews in Israel that are threatened ?
Oh yeah, 75 % of all the dolphins in the Med have converted to Shia Islam, and are waiting anxiously for the 12th Mullet.
So the Jews are surrounded on ALL sides now !!

Seriously, "Jones", are you just kidding around with a REALLY strange sense of humor with what you "right" or are you really serious ?
If you ARE (heaven forbid..) REALLY serious, I have a beach house that I can let you have for a steal in Nebraska.
Weren't you the guy that bought the Golden Gate bridge twice ?

The Jews have been "surrounded" since Israel's inception. In 1948 Nasser vowed to drive them into
the sea....his Pan Arabic dream crumbled as the greed
and mistrust between Princes, clerics, Mullas, ayatollahs, Presidents, Kings and politicos split
everyone apart. But the terrorism they nurtured aganst Jews has now recoiled upon Arabs themselves.

Beirut's streets are full of hatred....just like Gazas
and Cairo's. Bin Laden wants to bring the Saudis down. Compared with terrorists Israel is looking
pretty good to Jordan, the Saudis and Egypt right now. Arabs have fomented ignorance, lies and
hatred for decades against Jews...and that mindset
dies hard. Actually, with peace treaties with Egypt and
Jordan, Israel is less threatened that it has been.
Iran, an ally of Hitler, was always anti-Israel.
Same with Syria's Assad l and ll. It is going to be really
interesting to see what the oil states do here. Iran
is not stupid enough to attack Isreal directly -nor is
Syria. So they prop up Hezbollah and the Palestinians
as cheap warriors. We shall see which wins out -
oil-rich Sheiks or power hungry clerics. But the losers
are always the same -average Arabs. And unless
wild-eyed extremists killing in the name of Allah
are stopped -the world will lose.

Just do an online search for "Republican scandals" and you'll get a flood of raw sewage!

I was in my early teens during carter and still get nauseous thinking about it. America was an absolute paper tiger and laughingstock. Absolutely the lowest part of American history in the past 50 years, if not more.

Same here.
If Carter was president during 9/11, he would have apologized to the terrorists' countries for the towers being in the way of the planes and then sent aid to there countries.
