Two Iranian newspapers, Kehyan and Resalat, are imploring Muslims around the world to unite and prepare for a "great war" to destroy Israel. The papers both claimed that Hezbollah "destroyed at least half of Israel" in the recent war so one has to take these editorials with a grain or two of salt. According to ynetnews.com:
“The great war is ahead of us, (and will break out) perhaps tomorrow, or in another few days, or in a few months, or even in a few years... Israel must collapse,” the newspaper said.
It added: “For the first time in the 60 years of its disgraceful life, the Zionist regime — the West's beloved in the Middle East — tasted the taste of defeat, and the citizens of this regime trembled at the menace of Hizbullah's missiles... The nation of Muslims must prepare for the great war, so as to completely wipe out the Zionist regime, and remove this cancerous growth. Like the Imam (Ayatollah) Khomeini said: ‘Israel must collapse.’”
Bluffing? Perhaps, but perhaps not. We already know that Iran provided much of the missiles targeted against Israel in the recent war. I would argue that the Hezbollah offensive was a war by proxy, propagated by Iran and Syria just to see how Israel would respond and to see how much damage they could do. The answer is that the crazies (with a little Iranian oversight) were able to do a great deal of damage and, worse, collaborate with the mainstream media to convince world opinion that Israel was at fault and “over-responded.”
Hezbollah won the war on the world opinion front and the world turned even more anti-Israel and anti-Jewish. Iran could attack Israel with impunity
The Democrats are already talking about defunding the war and giving the President only enough money to bring home the troops over a 4 – 6 month period. That will wipe out any US forces in the area that could defend Israel. Iran reported yesterday that it was almost finished with its nuclear program. I, for one, believe that they already have enough enriched uranium to make several nuclear bombs and we know that they have the capability to deliver the bombs to Israel.
The world could be a messy place beginning in a year or so.
