Mideast countries prepare for war

Posted by Matt in April 3rd, 2008

Arab and Israeli rivals are preparing for the possibility of an imminent major war while simultaneously trying to talk down the rising tensions.

Israeli officials on Thursday attempted to ease the speculation of a new military confrontation prompted by reports of military preparations, deployments and drills, with assurances that Israel has no plans to attack Syria.

“Israel has no intention of attacking Syria, and the latter says it is only ready to respond to any attack,” said Deputy Prime Minister Haim Ramon. “So the risk of a military confrontation is very low.”

http://www.weforum.org 20.05.2007 The Arab-Israeli Conflict: What Is the Way Forward? 2007 has seen both hope with the Mecca Agreement and the relaunch of the Arab Peace Initiative, and then disappointment with a lack of progress on the peace process and the outbreak of renewed violence. 1) What are the implications of the current situation in Gaza? What are the risks of escalation and how can they be addressed? 2) How can the domestic circumstances in each of the two main parties be overcome to find a way forward? 3) What does the Arab Peace Initiative offer the region?

The Jewish-Arab Peace Song (w/ English subtitles)
This song is dedicated to the 44 ordinary people from 17 countries, and the countless people who supported them, who sailed on August 23 from Cyprus to Gaza on two, small, wooden boats, breaking the Siege of Gaza through non-violent direct action. Since then, the group has sailed on two more siege-busting voyages. See all the info at www.freegaza.org In this song, Jewish-Israeli and Palestinian singers and musicians joined together to perform the Hebrew-Arabic song "Hevenu Shalom Aleinu" (We Brought Peace Upon Us) - "Ma Ana Ajmal Min Salam" (There is Nothing More Beautiful Than Peace). Sung in both Hebrew and Arabic, this Middle-Eastern-Jewish-style inspiring, jazzy song challenges us to overcome decades of hatred and violence, and replace them with human rights, and appreciation of...

Yom Kippur war part 1 - Israel fights for her life and wins
Am Israel Chai! Od Avinu Chai! This is part 1 of 4, a documentary concerning the Israeli Yom Kippur war. The surprise attack on Israel in October 1973 by Egypt and Syria, this is the Fourth Arab--Israeli War. It is named after the Jewish national holiday on which it began, the holiest day of the Jewish year. Isn't it interesting that many observe the holy days of others, but they chose a holy day to attack. But, God intervened and miraculously all Arab (Islamic) forces were soundly defeated. It is quite a testimony that this tiny country that is the size of Rhode Island would defeat armies that were numerically superior by many times. We need to remain the friends of Israel and do anything we can to protect them and support them. Genesis 12:3 "And I will bless them that bless...

Let us pray to God that this does not happen. War cannot help anyone. Not Israel nor Syria nor Iran. Surely none of these countries truly want a war. The only country I believe is pushing for this war is the US. The maniacal Bush administration seems to want a fight but notice that none of the cowards at the top have ever been in an actual shooting war. They support war as long as someone else is doing the fighting and dying.
The great danger is that another war in that part of the World could rapidly spread out of control. These idiots planning this are like kids playing with matches and gasoline.
Aren’t there any adults around to take control of things?
