    Too bad killing people and seeing blood, guts and gore isn't able to be tweeted. Then you could really appreciate it.

  • Some amazing photos.

    The one of the BBC journalist is ruining my day.

    Egypt asserts its support for Palestinians

    Rumor spreading that an Israeli F-16 has been shot down. No pictures of it yet, might just be propaganda. If it isn't, then these Hamas kooks are just really fucking crazy. The technology gap between the Israelis and their enemies has narrowed significantly since they last went toe-to-toe. Should multiple Arabic countries mobilize, I wouldn't expect a clean sweep as has been seen in the past.

    Iran has always supplied Hamas. Fighting spirit I would give to the Israeli's any day. But who knows what Russian weapons Hamas and other countries have now.

  • Another massive Israeli-Arab war is highly unlikely, perhaps impossible due to US sway in the region. Unlike in '67 & '73, there aren't separate US & Soviet spheres of influence in the region. And even then, countries were peeling away from the Death to Israel coalition -- Jordan stayed home in '73.

    Also, it's important to note that those things weren't always clean sweeps. The Israelis were caught off guard in '73 because the military hierarchy assumed its strategic advantage guaranteed no Arab countries would be willing to go to war. The surprise, less decisively won conflict stunned many Israelis and, at least according to some historians, helped pushed the Israeli right towards a US-brokered deal with Egypt.

    The huge amounts of aid and military-to-military relationships that have stemmed from that agreement make it unlikely, whatever the political situation, that Egypt's military would go to war against the United States' bud.

  • Keep'm in line money. $1 billion dollars or so, right?

  • Yup, pretty much. Both Egypt & Israel get wicked oversized shares of foreign aid, but I don't know if the US gov't can pull the money without creating a Romney-playing-Jenga sitch. Probably something that has to happen little by little over eons.

  • Egypt is the aggressor.

    BTW, whatever happened to the stupid leftist crap about "Israel will have peace when they give back the Gaza strip....etc etc.

    There will never be peace. It's time to stop aid to Egypt - they are the aggressors here - as in the past.

    This violence is only happening because Obamao is bigoted against Israel, and bigoted FOR Muslims.

    Just like hitler ended up being. His gov learned to use the Jewish people as a focused "enemy" from them.

    Mathew Staver, Founder and ChairmanLiberty Counsel 11/16/2012 As Middle East violence escalates, over half of Israel’s population is now under fire from terrorist rockets. The latest reports indicate that more than 50 rockets – some of them Iranian-made Fajr-5 long range missiles – have been fired today alone. Israel’s most populous city, Tel Aviv, is among the targets and today even Jerusalem came under the crosshairs. America’s mainstream media ignored the barrage of rockets launched by Hamas into Israel that came on the heels of Barack Obama’s reelection. But Israel’s responsive attack a week later that took out Hamas military leader Ahmed Jabari is getting major attention, as are the Israeli Air Force’s (IAF) attacks on missile silos and other military targets in and around Gaza City. This is outrageous hypocrisy on the part of America’s leftist media! Israel is suffering war-like conditions! Even in Tel Aviv, which has not come under fire since the first Gulf War in 1990–91, air raid sirens are almost continuously blaring as frightened Israeli men, women, and children are forced to stay under cover. Meanwhile, answering the call to defend its people, Israel is currently amassing more than 16,000 ground troops should a ground invasion into the Gaza Strip be deemed necessary, and as many as 75,000 reservists may be called into action. This latest attack on the sovereignty of Israel underscores the vital need for Americans to declare strong support for the nation of Israel and its leadership. It is vital that President Obama pledge unwavering support for our ally, Israel, and for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

  • Seems to me, that the enemies of Israel strike when a corrupt president is dealing with scandals in America.

    '67... LBJ and Vietnam.

    '73 ... Nixon, watergate

    2012 Obamao....whose scandal rocked regime makes the previous two look

    small time.

  • By that theory, President Clinton was the only recent non-corrupt commander-in-chief, at least if you count the Lebanon conflicts in '82 and '06.

    Also, to clear something up from my posts above -- just because I believe we're pretty much locked into our current aid policy re: Egypt & Israel doesn't mean it's a good one. In fact, I think we've been bad friends to Israel by insulating them from the costs of the occupation -- it's helped entrench a policy that's fundamentally at odds with Israel's identity as a Jewish & democratic state.

  • Hear hear.

    Perhaps we should be even better friends and, since suffering is good for the soul, just arm the rest of the Middle East so they can be crushed.

  • It's odd that someone who rages against the welfare machine fails to see how foreign aid could breed complacency.

  • Not nearly as odd as someone getting a boner over

    The destruction of the only civalized spot in the region.

    WTF?

  • Steve, do you really consider Israel the only civilized nation in the area?
