Israel Attacked......Again


Hamas militants have let loose a barrage of rockets and mortars into Israel on Tuesday marking the end of a five month cease fire. Militants fired the rockets in response to the deaths of Palestinians who were killed in clashes with the IDF (Israeli Defense Force). A "cease fire" has been effect since November after fierce fighting erupted in the aftermath of the kidnapping of an IDF soldier. Hamas is willing to free the soldier in return for hundreds of Palestinians militants.

Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas stated, "this is a message to the Zionist enemy that our strikes will continue...we are ready to kidnap more and more, and kill more and more of your soldiers". Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert stated that it is important to secure the release of IDF soldiers but that is was not going to repeat "mistakes made in the past" when militants were released and later carried out attacks against Israel.

Israel has has sovereign and Divine right to defend itself and IDF soldiers will engage the enemy when the opportunity presents itself. This differs from Hamas, who will instigate confrontation with the IDF and when engaged will claim they were attacked and launch rockets and mortars into Israeli villages in response. The most striking difference is this: Israel will engage and defend itself against Hamas or Palestinian militants but Hamas is willing to attack Israeli citizens who are not in the military.

Fulfilling prophecy, Israel is and will remain behind enemy lines and locked in constant struggle until the end of days. As an ally of Israel, the United States can rest assured that we will also fight against the Islamic fundamentalists until the end unless we take a determined stand here and now. Although not surrounded by the enemy such as Israel, the United States is public enemy number one in the eyes of numerous enemies: Hamas, Hezbolah, Al-Qaeda, etc. These Islamic radicals believe that Israel and the United States because of its support and presence in the region are Zionists and infidels and they have been ordered by their god to destroy us as the only way to reach salvation.
