Islamic Terrorists under intense fire as Israel Reacts
How it started: Hezbullah
guerrillas, who are backed by Iran, seized two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border raid.
The Iranian Foreign Ministry described as "nonsense" the allegation that two IDF
soldiers captured by the Lebanese Hizbullah were being transferred to Iran.
Israel said it had information that the guerrillas were trying to transfer them to Iran in
an apparent move to prevent the IDF from rescuing them. Foreign Ministry spokesman Mark
Regev did not disclose the source of his information.
Over 120 Katyushas Rockets fired by Islamic Radical Groups have injured 100 Israelis and
killed 2. Some two million Israelis who live in northern communities from Haifa to Metula
face the threat of rocket and missile attacks from Lebanon.
Terrorists fired a missile at Haifa for the first time. Security officials estimated the
rocket was made in Iran. Hizbullah's al-Manar showed a new rocket which they said will hit
"the strongholds of the Zionist enemy." The Hizbullah said they fired a Raad 1
missile at Israel.
Hizbullah possesses thousands of rockets with a 20-kilometer firing range as well as some
100 rockets capable of reaching targets of 40-70 kilometers.
Israeli Defense Minister Amir Peretz said Thursday following the rocket attack on Haifa,
"We expected Hizbullah to break the rules and now we are going to break them."
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said an Israeli strike on Syria would be considered
an attack on the whole Islamic world that would bring a "fierce response"
Saudi Arabia blamed "elements" inside Lebanon for the violence with Israel, in
unusually frank language directed at guerrilla group Hezbollah and its Iranian backers.
"A distinction must be made between legitimate resistance and uncalculated adventures
undertaken by elements inside (Lebanon) and those behind them without recourse to the
legal authorities and consulting and coordinating with Arab nations," a statement
carried by the official news agency SPA said.
"These elements should bear the responsibility for their irresponsible actions and
they alone should end the crisis they have created."
Israel struck Beirut airport and military airbases and blockaded Lebanese ports on
Thursday, intensifying reprisals that have killed 55 civilians in Lebanon since Hizbollah
captured two Israel Defense Forces soldiers a day earlier.
"They (the elements) are exposing Arab nations and their gains to grave dangers
without these nations having a say in the matter," said the statement, which
reiterated Saudi support for Palestinian and Lebanese resistance against Israeli
occupation.
The statement did not make clear what Arab gains might mean.
The IDF said Hezbollah fighters rained more than 100 rockets on northern Israel in their
heaviest bombardment in a decade, hitting Israel's third largest city, Haifa. Hezbollah, a
group backed by Iran and Syria, denied it had fired on the port city.
Arab governments have agreed to send their foreign ministers to Cairo for an emergency
meeting on Saturday to discuss the Israeli attacks on Lebanon and the Palestinian
territories.
But the 22-member League has not yet seen specific proposals for a joint Arab response to
the Israeli attacks.
Major Arab governments other than Syria are not expected to give unqualified backing
Hezbollah, or the Palestinian militant group Hamas which is holding an Israeli soldier
hostage.
Lebanon's government asked the United Nations Security Council on Thursday to order a
cease-fire in the cross-border fighting between Lebanon and Israel. The Lebanese
government "calls on the UN Security Council to take a comprehensive and immediate
decision for a cease-fire and for lifting the siege on Lebanon," said Information
Minister Ghazi Aridi after an emergency Cabinet meeting
The Lebanese government announced that it was rejecting an Israeli demand to deploy its
military in southern Lebanon. According to a government statement, Lebanon rejects the
Israeli claim that its military actions are defensive measures.
Lebanese Minister for Social Affairs Mila Mawad said the government was preparing to
announce its cease-fire proposal to Hezbollah and Israel, under which Hezbollah would be
required to free the IDF soldiers it captured. The proposal does not mention the release
of Lebanese prisoners.
When asked by a reporter why Lebanon does not disarm Hezbollah, Mawad said the
organization was brought into the government to grant its members the feeling they
Lebanese.
Israel believes Hezbollah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah did not intend to ignite such a
dramatic escalation when his fighters kidnapped two Israel Defense Forces soldiers and
killed eight others.
The move was apparently intended return to the spotlight Hezbollah campaign for the
release of Lebanese Samir Kuntar, jailed in Israel for the killing of a Nahariya family.

WHAT IF??? You're an Israeli and your
home is bombed. Your children and wife are killed. Two dozen others in the neighborhood
are killed and hundreds injured. The long range missile came from an empty childrens
hospital in Lebanon.
QUESTION: Why didn't any of the staff, doctors, families of the children or people living
in the vicinity of the hospital report that the facility was set up as a military battery?
POSSIBLE ANSWERS:
1- They all agree with the Islamic Terrorists tactics.
2- They all are lukewarm about the Islamic Terrorists tactics but hate Jews
3- They don't agree with the Islamic Terrorists, but since they are all Muslims they
cannot report them.
4- They report the terrorists. The report is given to the terrorists by the authorities.
Their entire families are brutally murdered.
The Israelis Stike Back and destroy the military battery within the childrens hospital.
The Islamic Terrorists send a video to Al Jazeera TV and to the Liberal Media in the
United States. The video was shot with bodies of children from Lebanese Christian families
that were murdered by the Islamo Fascists one day earlier. The Media does no further
investigation and reports it just as the Terrorists want it shown. The world cries out
that Israel must stop their terror on the innocent. The U.S. Media receives a video of a
childrens hospital in Israel that was bombed. They think it's a set up and never happened.
They censor it with silence
