- Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called for more dramatic measures to be taken against Iran and declined to rule out a military attack against Tehran in an interview with Germany's Spiegel magazine.

Olmert criticised the international community's hesitation in dealing with President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The West fears Iran's nuclear programme is aimed at developing nuclear weapons but Tehran denies this.

"I am anything but happy," Olmert was quoted as saying in an interview released ahead of publication on Sunday.

"I expect significantly more dramatic steps to be taken. Here is a leader who says openly that it is his aim to wipe Israel off the map. Israel is a member of the United Nations."

"That someone says such a thing these days is absolutely criminal."

When asked if he would not rule out a military strike against Tehran, Olmert replied: "I rule nothing out."

What is their motto again....

Well, if you listen to unsubstantiated internet rumors, the mossad's motto is "By way of deception, thou shalt do war" (or something to that effect).

However, that isn't even true. Their <b>real</b> motto is actually "For lack of guidance a nation falls, but many advisers make victory sure." -(Proverbs XI, 14)

Ok, so what are they going to attack with?

Air drops of kosher food?

The iranian leadership wants it, that would be like a wet dream to be attacked by israel, they dont give a f#ck (except in heaven with their virgins multitudes) so........the question is, how smart are the israelis?

The smartest thing is certainly to have the inescapable war as soon as possible.

Not a full endoresment, but well researched.
Of note are the Iranian presidents views on the Mahdi,
and what he believes must be done before the Mahdi will return.

Death and Darkness in Gaza

People are dying, Help us!

By Maan

20/01/08 "ICH" -- -- A humanitarian crisis is underway as the Gaza Strip's only power plant began to shut down on Sunday, and the tiny coastal territory entered its third full day without shipments of vital food and fuel supplies due to Israel's punitive sanctions.

The Gaza Strip's power plant has completely shut down on Sunday because it no longer has the fuel needed to keep running. One of the plant's two electricity-generating turbines had already shut down by noon.

This will drastically reduce output to 25 or 30 megawatts, down from the 65 megawatts the plant produces under normal conditions. By Sunday evening the plant will shut down completely, leaving large swaths of the Gaza Strip in darkness.

Omar Kittaneh, the head of the Palestine Energy Authority in Ramallah, confirmed that by tonight, the one remaining operating turbine will be powered down, and the Gaza power plant will no longer be generating any electricity at all.

"We have asked the Israeli government to reverse its decision and to supply fuel to operate the power plant", Dr. Kittaneh said. "We have talked to the Israeli humanitarian coordination in their Ministry of Energy [National Infrastructure]. We say this is totally Israel's responsibility, and that reducing the fuel supplies until the plant had to shut down will affect not only the electrical system but the water supply, and the entire infrastructure in Gaza – everything."

After months of increasingly harsh sanctions, Israel imposed a total closure on the Strip's border crossings, even preventing the delivery of humanitarian aid. The Israeli government says the closure is punishment for an ongoing barrage of Palestinian homemade projectiles fired from the Gaza Strip.

"Famine"

180 fuel stations have shut down after Gaza residents to buy gas for cooking.

A Palestinian economist Hasan Abu Ramadan said the current humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip will be deepened by the blockade on fuel and food supplies. He warned that Gaza Strip could go from a situation of deep poverty to all out famine, disease, and malnutrition.

Abu Ramadan said that more than 80% of the Strip's 1.5 million residents have been surviving with the help of food aid from international organizations such as UNRWA for Palestinian refugees.

International condemnation

Most international actors in the region believe there already is a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, including the UN's Emergency Relief Coordinator, the Undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs John Holmes, who said at a press conference at UNHQ in New York on Friday that "This kind of action against the people in Gaza cannot be justified, even by those rocket attacks".

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon expressed particular concern, in a statement issued later on Friday through his spokesperson, about the "decision by Israel to close the crossing points in between Gaza and Israel used for the delivery of humanitarian assistance. Such action cuts off the population from much-needed fuel supplies used to pump water and generate electricity to homes and hospitals".

The UN Human Rights Council's Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied territories, John Dugard, also issued a much sharper statement on Friday, saying that Israel must have foreseen the loss of life and injury to many nearby civilians when it targeted the Ministry of Interior building in Gaza City.

This, and the killings of other Palestinians during the week, plus the closures, "raise very serious questions about Israel's respect for international law and its Commitment to the peace process", Dugard said. He said it violates the strict prohibition on collective punishment contained in the Fourth Geneva Convention, and one of the basic principles of international humanitarian law: that military action must distinguish between military targets and civilian targets

Yeah, those damn zionists. Instead of taking on a whole COUNTRY like Iran, they'd rather just pick on the helpless Palestinians, wouldn't they?

ROFLMAO! Get some help, man. You are seriously one fucked up moonbat.

Hey TT2, aside from your civil liberties being trampled on a daily basis by The Man, i.e. , having vans and minidrones following you everywhere you go and you being picked up by the domestic arm of Blackwater and waterboarded because you're an idiot, is there anything you like about living in the West? Is it the unprecedented media coverage to the slaughter of innocent Iraqis by the evil American conquerors that living in North America affords you? Is it your freedom and opportunity to rail about the manufactured War on Terror by the US and Israel? Or do you stay because you know that is Toronto just a great big cesspool of capitalist oppression that will, someday, be brought into the warm healing embrace of the coming Caliphate?

Your stupidity o Akbar!
Your stupidity o Akbar!
Your stupidity o Akbar!

If Hamas wants to fight Israel you would think they would find other means of supplies then from the very people they fight against.

Can they not find some Arab states who can flip them a few ships of oil to get them independent of israel.....Hamas fights with no objective for victory, no plan to succeed, they only fight to make Isreal look bad.

When they do get their own state it will be crushed if they continue to act this way.....
