War in the Middle East?
By John on Middle East
Common Sense and Wonder
Euphoric Reality is reporting that there are rumors fllying around Israel that Olmert will declare war tonight.
<<< What exactly did Olmert mean when he said this was an act of war? You’d think I’d get it, but after the past few weeks of hand-wringing, who knows if he means what he says? Insiders in the IDF think they know.
From Carl in Jerusalem:
*** One of my sources, Harvey in Efrat, claims to have it from ‘reliable sources’ that Israel is going to declare war tonight. Here’s what Harvey is telling me (for the record, I have known Harvey for 35 years - we were roommates at a youth group convention in 1971, and his sources are generally from within the IDF and are usually reliable):
--- RUMORS FLYING THAT EHUD OLMERT WILL BE DECLARING WAR TONIGHT (2YEARS TOO LATE)? 3 DEAD IDF SOLDIERS IN THE NORTH, 2 IDF SOLDIERS KIDNAPPED, TRIPLE PRONGED ATTACK, KATYUSHA, TERRORISTS ON THE GROUND SHOOTING FREELY AT IDF OUTPOST, AND THEN CAPTURING 2 IDF SOLDIERS.
HEAVY FIGHTING GOING ON NOW..IAF KNOCKED OUT BRIDGES THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN LEBANON, IDF NAVY SHELLING BEIRUT SUBURBS,
IN GAZA, MOHAMMED DEIF, LEADER OF HAMAS, LOST OTHER LEG AND ARM, NOT DEAD YET FROM LAST NIGHT’S IAF AERIAL BOMBING ON A NON EMPTY BUILDING (RABBIS SAID ‘’SHEHACHAYINU” [the blessing one says on happy occasions. CiJ])
TZAV 8 [Order for general call up of reservists. CiJ] CALL UP OF RESERVES JUST ISSUED BY DEFENSE MINISTRY,
SHLOMI MOSHAV IN THE NORTH ALL CHILDREN AND PARENTS ARE IN THE BOMB SHELTERS,
IDF TANKS AND TROOPS HAVE CROSSED INTO LEBANON WHERE THEY LEFT 6YEARS AGO
IDF TANKS AND TROOPS HAVE CUT GAZA STRIP IN TO TWO SECTIONS AS IAF CONTINUES BOMBING
CENSORSHIP ON OTHER DETAILS NOW IN EFFECT BY IDF ---
Please note that ‘officially’ we have only been told that six soldiers and five civilians were wounded in the north this morning. The IDF waits to give official notice of deaths until it can notify families and release names. ***
Since making the above post on his blog, Carl has confirmed some of the war rumors. >>>
