Israel says Hezbollah missile buildup accelerating

[calfoxwc]

<H1 id=yn-title>I am concerned that the Obamao regime's hostility to Israel is encouraging an all out attack on Israel, during Obamao's term, because they know Obamao will not

intervene in any kind of significant way. Their time to go after Israel is now, while

the Obamao Regime is in place.

 

If it does happen, you know who to blame.

Israel says Hezbollah missile buildup accelerating

 

Tue May 4, 9:39 am ET</H1>JERUSALEM (AFP) – Syria's government routinely ships weapons to Lebanon's Shiite militia Hezbollah in an operation that goes well beyond sporadic smuggling, a top Israeli intelligence officer said on Tuesday.

 

The head of the military intelligence research department, Brigadier General Yossi Baidatz, told a parliamentary committee that Hezbollah's arsenal included thousands of rockets of all ranges and types, some solid-fuelled.

 

Baidatz did not specifically name the long-range Scud missiles which Israeli President Shimon Peres has accused Hezbollah of stockpiling, but appeared to allude to Peres' warnings.

 

"The shipments of long-range missiles which have been reported recently are only the tip of the iceberg," Baidatz told the Foreign Affairs and Defence Committee.

 

"Syria has a significant role in the growing strength of Hezbollah's rocket arsenal," he said. "Weapons are sent to Hezbollah from Syria on a regular basis under the direction of the Syrian and Iranian regimes."

 

Hezbollah has not confirmed or denied the Scud allegations, saying only that it has the right to possess any weapon it chooses.

 

On Monday, President Barack Obama renewed US sanctions on Syria for a year, accusing Damascus of supporting "terrorist" groups and pursuing missile programs and weapons of mass destruction.

 

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had warned Syrian President Bashar al-Assad last week about the risks of sparking a regional war if he supplied long-range Scud missiles to Hezbollah.

 

 

 

 

[Mr. T]

We may have the biggest bunch of Losers ever in charge.

 

You have the FT Hood murders

 

You have the SUV Failed Bomb attempt in times square

 

You have the jihad attack at an army recruiting station.

 

And we could name more. But president Obamao dishes off The War on Terror and states that there is nothing to be scared of from his Islamic brothers in arms. And it would be safe to bet that he will turn a blind eye to the actions of Hezbollah.

Odd.

 

The Bush admin kept us SAFE for all his years after 9/11.

 

Hmm. the first year of Obama, and the attacks

 

have started taking place again.

[Mr. T]

Obamao is more interested in social engineering than tending to the country he supposedly swore to protect from all enemies
