Certain Iran leader is saying Iran will destroy all 32 US bases in the Middle East if attacked..WOW!


TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran would destroy Israel and 32 U.S. military bases in the Middle East if the Islamic Republic was attacked over its disputed nuclear program, a senior Iranian official was quoted as saying on Saturday.

The Islamic Republic and Israel have been embroiled in an escalating war of words in recent weeks, sparking speculation of military confrontation and helping to send oil prices to record highs on global markets.

"The U.S. knows full well that with the smallest move against Iran, Israel and 32 U.S. military bases in the region would not be out of the reach of our missiles and would be destroyed," the semi-official Fars News Agency quoted Mojtaba Zolnour as saying.

A while back Jerry Golden published details and photos of a large army barracks that was being built by America in Israel. It is/was very close to the Tel Aviv international airport. He speculated on some New World Order motives, but I wander if the US is making a contingency for a rapid evacuation of troops from Iraq in an emergency. Doesen't the Pentagon devise scenarios for hundreds of different outcomes and events?

Should the domestic economy collapse as a separate event, there is going to be severe pressure on troops overseas. This will embolden terrorists in Iraq and of course Iran itself, who will believe that the troops in Iraq have had their lifeline severed and will want try and box them in. Obviously in that kind of situation a rapid evacuation might be needed. No flights to Germany...too far for transport plane round-trips. Israel is closer and the only nation in the region that can be trusted. Plus Jordan is the only country between Israel and Iraq and it can probably be easily managed should it turn hostile.

I don't think that the U.S. bases are trembling considering that they could kill every Iranian in that country if they are attacked.

I believe a priority on striking Iran will be to destroy their missile sites & military airports and destroy as many warplanes as possible.

The mission goal would be to take out their nuclear facilities and as many weapons, and missiles that they can hit. As well as anything that launches, floats or flies as quickly as possible.

Don't think Iran is bunch of Idiots. Unlike Iraq, Iran has got allies such has Russia, China and whole Islamic countries. If Iran is attacked this country won't stay quiet. Proxy war would start and US would be in a fix.

@ Titus :- Don't you think Pentagon would already know that?. It is not how much targets US are going to hit, It is how much US is going to get hit later. The fact is the consequences of this attack would be much larger than Iraq.

Do you think killing all Iranians the people around the world is going to stop thinking about it?. NO. They will take action they won't be quiet.

It would be helpful if people who have no strategic insight, would not make statements, especially if they are based on fear.
I understand the anxiety, but where is the Trust in the Lord?

Gosh, why am I typing the same thing over and over? TURN TO GOD.

Our military may have what they think to be a lot of might.

However, there's sin in the camp, and a lot of it.

Take a look at the biblical record of how Israel fared in battle with sin in the camp (even against supposedly tiny enemies.)

May the Lord have mercy.

In Christ,

Mike

Ya know, its way early in the morning and the first pot of coffee still hasn't perked yet but a random thought...

If we, the USA, are to go down and if we are not beside Israel's during the "big one", then what better way to go than to go down fighting/supporting Israel along the way before she gets to the big one.

Yea, I know. Kind of out of left field and not really consistent with what we see/know of the world today.

"No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord. (Isaiah 54:17).

I believe this verse trumps anything or anyone who targets Israel.

OK, random thought generator off

No strategic insight you say? I'm sorry but it appears to me that it is the people cheering on the warmongers in America and Israel who lack strategic knowledge. What WhiteKnight says is perfectly true and well known.

If you want to hear someone who does have strategic insight you may want to listen to either one of these people, who know what they are talking about;

Yes I agree completely, so why don't you do exactly that and quit this support of people who are seemingly blind and uncaring of the fact that countless people will be killed and maimed by such a catastrophe?
By saying basically, "It's ok, we can go to war, just trust in GOD," you honestly expect that GOD would shield America or whoever from the consequences of such an action? Do you know how GOD works? Do you know for a fact that HE would step in and stop countries from defending themselves while protecting America and Israel so they can acheive some strategic objective in the region? Does the fact that SOME people in Israel may have a few ancestors (out of the millions that they have) who are children of Abraham or the fact that Christianity in America for some reason seems to be tied to patriotism, mean that the US and Israel are untouchable and anyone who tries to defend themselves against their aggression will burn?! I highly doubt it.

I will repeat something I said before, Iran IS NOT manufacturing Nuclear Weapons, but the most sure-fire way of ensuring that they DO produce Nuclear Weapons is to attack them, because they then have every justification they need for developing a defensive Nuclear deterrent.

Honestly what is the real reason you are so adament that Iran should be attacked? Is it because of what their President said? Should that country be attacked because their President put a dent in your national pride? Or is it them venting their frustration at decades of interference? I assure you that any such move against Iran will result in your national pride being crushed into the dirt because they have the means of responding ferociously.

I was considering keeping quiet about this but I suppose I should say it; I would highly recommend two books to you titled 'GOD'S Politics' by Jim Wallis and 'The Rise of the Rest' by Farid Zakar'iyya. The former of the two addresses the issue of why being a Christian in America seems to make one pro-war and pro-republican, and the latter tells about how America's removal from the position of 'World's Sole Superpower' is inevitable. The rest of the world has caught up with the West, which is, in future decades, going to have to learn to share it's power with the likes of China, India, Russia, Brazil and South Africa, among others. Zakar'iyya has also verbally supported the fact that Iran (whether America or Israel like it or not) is a major power in the Middle East and has the ability to remove America from it's Superpower status. I cannot stress how much the Iranian people do not want war, but I'll tell you that beneath the velvet glove is an iron fist, and if America and Israel continue this dangerous game they are going to find it in their jaw!

Again, as I have said before, it is irrelevant whether GOD protects Israel or not, the fact that this would kill a ghastly number of people should be the number one reason why people should not support the insanity of attacking Iran.

I love the way you think. And I agree with every word.

(I have my coffee right beside me).

Before you start telling me what to do and what books to read besides the Word of God (which is my ONLY book), stop your haughty tone and read this instead:

Or, a working WMD that they have been fitting their "good" missles with. I Pray so hard Im wrong.....

Any attack on a US installation or property with weapons of mass destruction would be met with a nuclear retaliatory strike. That would serve to erase Iran from the map, and since they're mentioned in the final days as a significant power, that isn't an option.

Ez:38
Unless Iran is planning an invasion of Israel with horses and horsemen with swords and shields - in conjunction with other nations, I don't think that particular prophesy is in the offing within the near future. Nor does that prophesy mention anything about a great power from the West, so it's a safe bet the United States will be extinct, or at least insignificant, by the time that prophesy is fulfilled.

The fact that the upcoming attack on Iran and the impact it is likely to have on our economy could explain our insignficance.

why attack Justice?

Unless Iran is planning an invasion of Israel with horses and horsemen with swords and shields - in conjunction with other nations, I don't think that particular prophesy is in the offing within the near future. Nor does that prophesy mention anything about a great power from the West, so it's a safe bet the United States will be extinct, or at least insignificant, by the time that prophesy is fulfilled.

Besides the fact that Ezekiel had no way to describe tanks and missiles and automatic weapons, (except by using words familiar to him) my understanding is that the modern Hebrew words used to describe tanks, missiles, and hand held weapons are the same as the words for the ancient weapons. (Someone correct me if I am wrong here).

Example - the current IDF ground-air defense missile is called "Arrow" in Hebrew.


Fruchtenbaum has a lengthy discussion of why he believes the Ez 38-39 invasion must be pre-trib. (There is a 2nd Gog-Magog invasion at the end of the Millenium.)

The prophets were sufficiently descriptive enough of things and events they weren't used to seeing in their time:



It isn't a stretch to call tanks, "giant beasts of iron belching forth gouts of flame and thunder," or for warplanes, "iron birds screaming through the heavens, raining down death and fire," or for modern firearms, "rods of fire and thunder bringing forth death and destruction." No, the writer is specific about horses and horsemen with swords and shields - nothing ambiguous about it. I believe the writer meant exactly what he wrote.

If only 1% of the force described was mechanized that would still be 2.5 million vehicles - I don't think all the armies in the world have combined that many vehicles. Thus, as the russians found in Afganistan an entire army on horseback and afoot with shields is probably accurate - even today. Not to mention APC carry 14 persons and have a 280 sq ft foot print. It would take about 6 million of them to cover every last square inches of the valley of Magido and you still wouldn't have third of the force predicted by the bible.

None of you is aware of the latest weapon that the Americans tested when laming Belgrade in the blink of an eye, during the Kosovo war?
Poor Teheran, poor Gog.

you really have no idea what is going on. You speak from a worldly perspective and do not know that this is has already been fortold what will happen. You can be happy that the U.S. will indeed be put down as a governing power, as all world governments will be, but not their military might...at least not yet, but that too will be put down when Jesus (not Isa of the mahdi) RETURNS.

Man's rule on Earth will be coming to an end soon, When Babylon the Great will fall. Your mahdi will rise up in power and splendor and will defeat his enemies...he will will also kill the two witnesses in Jerusalem. ah but who is he? do you really want to know? All world governemnts will fall in the coming war, when the rule of man on earth comes to an end...the days when Babylon the Great is come to an end...the are directly ahead of us now.

My Trust is solely and only in God, for while man brawls and boasts against their brothers, the mess will multiply.
No life would be saved if not for God's Merciful Intervention.

My Bible has been set like flint on my table, facing east. Nor will I cease to call upon Him who made all, rules all and knows this day is coming.
Nor will I delight in anything until that day arrives, when My God appears at the horizon, and then, brothers, you will look foolish dressed in arms.
Then the red on your cheeks caused by hatred, will turn to the red of shame.

Yet will our Merciful God see pleasure in saving you from your own destruction, for He knows the foolishness that drives you.

Until then, the mockers may boast in their foolishness, but I will pray that God has Mercy upon your empty cerebra.

You will not understand why the soil breaks in dry clumps and at the same time the winds dance upon the rooftops, the lightning fireballs will spark the bushes and the sea even boasts against you.

Iran America Russia. What are these but nations. We know what happens to them all. They are either gone or they bow down all they have at the feet of Jesus as he rules from Mount Zion, IN ISRAEL!
things will be bad but we are told to rejoice when we suffer. Cause it brings glory to the name of Jesus that though we suffer we stay true to his name and faith.
This is the Glory of those that have been called to live in Christ during such times as these.
So iran or America will do precisely what God the Father has already determined they will do. And we can either know that he is in control, playing out his will and eternal plan, or we can say "Oh what nation shall be destroyed today? or how soon before we are in a war with death beyond what our fathers knew?
When you wake up are you renewed or rescared by the events around you.


It is my opinion that these are indeed the days written of as the last of this age. I do not gloat in this fact as I will see things all in the history of the world cannot compare with as we are told these days never have, nor ever will be matched again.
But i boast in the fact that I have been chosen by the creator and God to be alive and participate in these last days as one of his. Truly an honor if suffering for his name is such an honor. I will have the best and worst time in history to Glorify the name of the one who has given me eternal life...
ETC

hey justice what weapon are you talking about Saint

ETC, was I talking about a weapon? To my recollection I was only speaking of God, whom I would not in the first place describe as "a weapon", but yes, as All Powerful.

the addition Saint, I am clueless why that is added.

None of you is aware of the latest weapon that the Americans tested when laming Belgrade in the blink of an eye, during the Kosovo war?
Poor Teheran, poor Gog.

Thats what you said I was thinking you were actually talking about a weapon and was curious what you were talking about.
And you are a true believer are you not. That is what a saint is... a true believer. I was calling you by the title that the early churches knew. this is no insult but a complement.

Oh that post! I get it now. It is an electric pulse bomb. It wiped out all of Belgrades communication and any electric appliance in one single sweep.
It causes a blackout.

As for the saint... I prefer servant. Least I get any haughty ideas of my own. For no title makes me better than I am without it.

Indeed but there is no reason to deny what you are. You are a true believer and in that case is the exact same thing. Cause all whom call upon his name become servants of a holy God.
Is this the emp like they are tryin to say Iran has and could use from freighter ships to knock out our power and eletronics. Essentially bringing us back 50 to 100 years in a moment that would leave us unable to strike back with no communications or power or vehicles that have chips.
This is messy stuff. I did not know we used that in Belgrade. sorry if you live nearby and you have felt the sting of such technology.
But you are a strong saint/servant and I know this nor doubt it.

emp? what do you mean with emp?
Iran does not have that capability, unless they were given it by either Russia or China. But the US has it for sure.
No I do not live nearby Serbia, fortunately. If I had, I would still feel it just what NATO did in the Kosovo war.

I just happen to follow the news with scrutiny, so I can understand who is starting what and who is helping who and why. By doing so, it makes it easier to understand what the Hand of God does and to identify those who are lying.

EMP stands for Electronic Magnetic Pulse. Even a nuclear detonation can cause EMP. Iran may not have it. But China or Russia may have give it to Iran. US do have it. They are the largest suppliers of arms in the world.

yeah electro magnetic pulse. and i hear that different Israeli top generals saw that they believe or can confirm that Iran has this capability. This is the reason for so many fictional but supposedly predictive of how Iran from freighter could launch older atomic/nuclear weapons miles above the us and bring down the electronics in seconds.
Just curious if yall have heard this.
And ya russia or china would be the ones responsible for putting this ability in their hands...

I have said all along that God will not allow it to happen.

Am I the only one who sees God in the equation?

The United States is well aware of our capabilities.

And our military is not trembling by the rantings of a little lunitic in Iran.

I'm sure at some point....he will find that out.

Ahmadinejad = Saddam Hussein



His turn is coming.
