Will Israel Wait???

Will Israel wait?

I think not!

Forgive me, but I cannot SEE Israel sitting around waiting on the Europeans, the Americans, the UN, and the IAEA to do something about Iran.

The Israelis see all this “jaw-jawing” as just what it is… putting off an impending event. Israel cannot afford to wait. Their very lives depend on the nuclear facilities of Iran being taken out.

Any morning now, I expect to awaken to news reports that unmarked aircraft conducted massive bombing raids over Iran and immense damage was done to Iran’s nuclear factories and research plants. Of course, there will be a slew of reports of collateral damage, except that the MSM, in order to be sure we all understand, will report the deaths of uncounted women and children by these dastardly phantoms of the air!

Now… this is going to happen! It seems the momentum is built up and I see no way of preventing it now, at all. The US has only two choices … that is to be ahead of the curve… or behind it. With, or without, US help, Israel is going to defend herself and if that means pre-emptive air attacks on Iran and the use of Israeli nuclear weapons, then so be it.

The tiny country of Israel is sort of like Fort Apache. It’s surrounded by hostiles and it cannot survive a first strike. It has no choice but to strike first and continue the strikes as long as it takes to remove the threat. They cannot consider what the US wants, nor Great Britain, nor the Europeans, nor the UN. This is THEIR LIFE they will be defending.

Within 24 hours of the nation of Israel being created, by the United Nations, she was attacked by hordes of Muslims. She fought them off and has continued to fight them off throughout their history.

Israel has stated publicly that she will not hesitate to use nuclear weapons if she believes her chances of survival are slim to none, otherwise.

The remainder of the world had best prepare. All the negotiations, underway now, and all the posturing by the diplomats of the world, are accomplishing absolutely nothing. As soon as Israel feels the time is right, they will strike.

We wish them every success. We pray God that He will, once again, come to the aid of His people and extend His arm of protection over the brave pilots who will participate in the raid.

Godspeed IDF! Godspeed!
