Israel links defence system with US
Israel News.Net Tuesday 29th July, 2008
Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak has told his government a new US missile system will substantially improve Israeli preparedness in the face of any threat by Iran.
The US system will link Israel to a missile alert system capable of identifying an imminent attack.
After a series of meetings with top US officials in Washington, Defence Minister Barak persuaded the US to connect Israel to the global anti-missile system.
The Iranian threat was the main topic of talks between Mr Barak and US defence officials, including Vice President Dick Cheney, Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Michael Mullen.
At a press conference with Israeli reporters after the meetings, Barak explained: "It was important for the Americans to understand our stance. I think they understand this better now, after this visit."
The US anti-missile system is capable of detecting an impending attack while the missile's engine is still heating up.
The US will deploy a radar system in Israel that will give preliminary warnings on the deployment of enemy missiles and also give Israel access to an advanced American missile-defence system. Email this story to a friend

The best defence is an assault.
An above post by Anonymous is the best testimony to a notion that the best defence âIsraeli, Western, in this case specifially- is a preventive assault at an enemy before it is not too late.

Israel links defence system with US
Does not matter. The missile system will fail because the new IRBM can manuever in flight with multiple launches of warheads. Also all Iran needs to do is to have on IRBM with a electo-magnetic warhead explode over Haifa/Tel-Aviv and the entire infrastructure of computers and energy will grind to a halt. Israel will be sent to the stone ages within 15 minutes. The same goes for America. All of their anti-missile systems are pure junk. A geopolitical bluff indeed!

No winners in War and violence.. have you not learnt that yet?
A very very wise Prophet two thousand years ago saw the danger of the primitive thinking where we say: an Eye for an Eye! there is no end to this cycle of behavior, there is no healing there are no winners! There is a way to not only stop this Violence and most importantly also will not save your soul and help you find God.. What we see in Israel is a world without love for your neighbor and the resulting fear that gripps your heart and minds! What we discovered is the fence between ourselves and our neighbors is not too high, so our neighbor can always throw stones at us because we are not friends.. Still there is Hope and there is a Savior.. This prophet teaches us to love our neighbor and tells us how to love one another.. It seems like it takes great courage to turn the other cheek, but in the long term you will find the wisdom on the words of Jesus and the power of love. For those of us that have experienced the power of having loving relationships you will understand how much easier life becomes.. Two thousand years ago, Jesus HAD TO DIE, so that he could prove he could conquer what we see as the end.. He is a great prophet that will save Jerusalem for all of us! All you need to do is just listen and DO WHAT HE ASKS.. A world without love? you are experiencing it now! Has this worked so far?

US, Israel the axis of evil
PLAIN FACTS ABOUT IRANâS MILITARY
Eric Margolis
Foreign Correspondent / Defense Analyst & Columnist
Excerpts:Israel has probably the worldâs second or third most potent air force, with around 400 state of the art, US-supplied combat aircraft and among the worldâs most skilled pilots. The IAF is supported by a galaxy of electronic warfare systems, drones, and long-range recon. Israelâs Arrow is the worldâs most advanced operational anti-ballistic missiles system and is expected to down over 85% of any incoming missiles.
Given these facts, we can see how false are claims trumpeted by the west that Iran is a dangerous military power that is about to eradicate Israel. The facts are quite the reverse.

Its about Stripminning!!!
Taking OFF THE TOP! AS MUCH AS WHAT’S WANTED!
Look at the debts lil bush has bequeathed the US Citizens with!
How many will have to forgo health insurance? education? A decent Payday? Food? and, of course Transportation? in order to pay for the damage of the elites to Our Country and to the Victims around the World!
What was the argument Obama sold out to?
'if you want to be an alive president, and actually help Black People, you play our ballgame or its a dead president’s ballgame.'?
Obama by his flip flops has given the US Citizens his response.

How ignorant are you?
Ever hear about driving one in and lighting it off?
Car, truck, Camel, boat or airplane!
Iran needs a serious wake up call and people like you are preventing the actual information from being delivered properly and taken seriously!
Iran only needs to light off two mid sized nukes and most of Israel goes up in smoke.
