Let Israel Fight ISIS

[pbel]

I doubt Israel would ever fight a war for the USA which has fought a war in Iraq for Israel, besides, Israel has only fought children with slingshots, I doubt they have any interest aside to being spectators and cheering as Muslims kill each other.

TEL AVIV — In 1990, when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait, he provided President George H. W. Bush his finest hour as a leader, a diplomat and a commander in chief. Among Mr. Bush’s accomplishments was bringing together more than 30 countries to oppose Iraq’s aggression. But the United States president knew what he’d have to do to build the kind of broad international coalition that he wanted: Keep Israel out of it.

dispatched to Jerusalem to calm down Israel lest it decided to act unilaterally.) Twelve years later, something similar played out when President George W. Bush assembled another coalition of the willing to fight against Iraq, this time of nearly 50 countries from Britain to Azerbaijan. Once again, Israel was kept off the list.

So no eyebrows were raised last year when the Obama administration began collecting names for its halfhearted coalition against the Islamic State, and Israel was, once again, not publicly asked to contribute. Australia and Belgium, Jordan and Qatar, Turkey and Britain were all expected to help with the fight. Israel — much closer to the action geographically than Denmark, better equipped than the Netherlands, on higher moral ground than Saudi Arabia — was once again left out.

Well honestly, sweetie, the real embarrassment is that Arab-Islamist nations are doing nothing when it's Arab-Islamist nations which are on the ISIS hit list. What a bunch of impotent losers.

. Israel — much closer to the action — was once again left out because.....

1) they are in the fight daily with their hands full
2) it would incite the entire Arab world to support ISIS

So now it's Israels's fault that Muslims are killing each other??? Talk about Being ignorant, stupid and Racist ! Tell us how much of the US Military went to fight fior Israel in 67, 71 and 73 Tell us the Arab Nations that would help Israel if they were attacked by Iran or any other Muslim Nation

The Arab/ Muslim Nations for the most part are saying nothing; doing nothing; However you won't hear that from the Anti Semitic Bigot

Let Israel Fight ISIS

Why should Israel fight ISIL? They aren't threatened by them yet.. This is an Arab/Persian/Turkish/Kurdish problem.

And as the official US reports show the Saudis were the ones who pushed the west into attacking Iraq in the first place. As for the nations fighting, or should that be dropping bombs on civilians heads, the extremists they asked the Israelis to stand back. But Israel are fighting by attacking the extremists in Syria, Lebanon and Palestine so are doing their bit. When can we expect the arab muslims to start doing theirs, or are they so cowardly that they want the west to fight all their battles.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Cool. And let her destroy them with all due haste. Israel is more than capable. If she can stave off six countries many times larger than her, and take land from them, she can take out a bunch of dregs and hooligans who call themselves jihadis.

Go get em.

Of course the U.S. invaded Iraq for Israel.

"The best thing about this political moment in the U.S. (if not for the good people of Iraq) is that the rise of ISIS and the Republican candidates’ embrace of the Iraq war is posing that deep and permanent question to the American public, Why did we invade Iraq?

Last night Chris Matthews asked that question again and David Corn said it was about the neoconservative desire to protect Israel. Both men deserve kudos for courage. Here’s part of the exchange:

Matthews: Why were the people in the administration like [Paul] Wolfowitz and the others talking about going into Iraq from the very beginning, when they got into the white house long before there was a 911 long before there was WMD. It seemed like there was a deeper reason. I don’t get it. It seemed like WMD was a cover story.

Corn: I can explain that. For years. Paul Wolfowitz and other members of the neocon movement had talked about getting rid of Iraq and there would be democracy throughout the region that would help Israel and they came to believe actually a very bizarre conspiracy theory that al Qaeda didn’t matter, that Saddam Hussein was behind all the acts of violence…

Matthews: The reason I go back to that is there’s a consistent pattern: the people who wanted that war in the worst ways, neocons so called, Wolfowitz, certainly Cheney.. it’s the same crowd of people that want us to overthrow Bashar Assad, .. it’s the same group of people that don’t want to negotiate at all with the Iranians, don’t want any kind of rapprochement with the Iranians, they want to fight that war. They’re willing to go in there and bomb. They have a consistent impulsive desire to make war on Arab and Islamic states in a neverending campaign, almost like an Orwellian campaign they will never outlive, that’s why I have a problem with that thinking. … we’ve got to get to the bottom of it. Why did they take us to Iraq, because that’s the same reason they want to take us into Damascus and why they want to have permanent war with Iran.

Of course the U.S. invaded Iraq on behalf of Israel. Rather, we were ordered to by Netanyahu.

"Secretary of State John Kerry reminded Americans on Wednesday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, who is expected to denounce a potential nuclear deal with Iran during an address to Congress next week, also visited Washington in late 2002 to lobby for the invasion of Iraq.

Apparently referring to testimony on the Middle East that Mr. Netanyahu delivered to Congress on Sept. 12, 2002, when he was a private citizen, Mr. Kerry told the House Foreign Affairs Committee, “The prime minister, as you will recall, was profoundly forward-leaning and outspoken about the importance of invading Iraq under George W. Bush, and we all know what happened with that decision.”

Geez and here I thought Powell's and Bush's impassioned UN speeches., Iraq's WMD, and attempting to assassinate Pres. Bush Sr. had something to do with it.

Oh yeah, and the numerous Iraqi UN violations had nothing to do with it nor playing hide and seek with the UN inspectors.

I think it is the other way around. Israeli spies collect critical intelligence from us.

Israel Won’t Stop Spying on the U.S.

"Israel’s espionage activities in America are unrivaled and unseemly, counterspies have told members of the House Judiciary and Foreign Affairs committees, ....“No other country close to the United States continues to cross the line on espionage like the Israelis do,” said a former congressional staffer who attended another classified briefing in late 2013, one of several in recent months given by officials from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the State Department, the FBI and the National Counterintelligence Directorate.
