nothing to really worry about just yet. all they have is fairly weak un accurate missles. the enevitable result will be Israel leveling a few major cities in lebonon, and lebonon not doing really any significant damage to israel.
it is more about causing terror than destroying Israel.
as long as Syeria doesnt get directly involved, and Iran doesnt start shipping them mass quantities of more powerfull and accurate weapons, the end result is already written in stone. devastated lebonon, wounded Israel.
if Syera and Iran get openly directly involved.........bad bad bad. pakistan, irreguardless of their alliance with us, will side with syeria, Jordan will too. it could end up in a really bad way.
inspite of the bravado, syeria would be a serious threat to Israel. if Iran gets directly involved and starts a second front with Hamas, we would have to get directly involved to protect Israel. if we get directly involved in open warfare with both Syeria and Iran, Jordan and pakistan will turn on us. if that happens, Saudi Arabia would be hard pressed to support us against the vast majority of their population, no matter how many princes we pay off.
it could escalate into us and Israel against the entire middle east. no matter who wins, Israel would be almost totally destroyed if not completly destroyed.
if israel sees this as ineviatable, they WILL nuke iran, mabe Syeria too. pakistan WILL nuke Israel. we WILL nuke Pakistan.
then the worst would happen. gas prices would go over 10 dollars a gallon or higher and we would loose our SUV,s. americans would then be directly affected by "those people over there", and mabe start paying attention to what the idiots we elected have done to not only our country, but the rest of the world too.
then mabe we can start cleaning up the mess WE created.
yes, WE.
it is our stupid ***** that politically pushed Syeria into withdrawing from Lebonon, which immediatly resulted in the escalation of hostilities towards Israel which were halted in the early 90,s when Syiera and the League of Arabs took controll of Lebonon to end their constant state of civil war and hostilities towards Israel to begine with.
so, lets recount. we tossed hussin out and turned iraq into a friggin mess, then pressured Syeria out of lebonon resulting in this currant mess.
the moral majority working...hard...for you.
