Israel is faced with the very real threat of war this summer. Do you think they should A) Wait for the US to join in the attack? B) Attack Iran, Syria, and Hezbullah in self-defense. C) Believe in God for the victory and not in the US.

1. Prepare for a ground war with Hezbullah. 2. Attack Iran nuclear targets. 3. Us will intercept any Iran Tomahawks tha attempt to follow them home. 4. Iran will order Hezbullah to attack Israel n retaliation. 5. US will threaten Iran to call off the Hezbullah. From that point it's anyones guess how it will play out.

GREAT response. I didn't expect someone to respond so quickly, much less with such a detailed plan. Thanks!

Your option B is nonsensical. Self-defence is about RESPONDING to an attack. If you attack first, it's not self-defence, it's an act of aggression and an act of war. Besides, Israel tried to attack Hezbollah last summer and got humiliated. If they couldn't manage to defeat Hezbollah, they won't be able to manage to attack Hezbollah, Syria and Iran all at the same time and win. Even trying is dangerous and could lead to the destruction of the state of Israel. The US won't help - they have their own problems in Iraq. You should have added option D)- start negotiating and sign peace treaties with all your neighbours and Iran. It's the best way to guarantee the permanent existence of the state of Israel for the next couple of centuries. But do the war-mongers want Israel to have a future? Or would they rather destroy their own state in a bid for glory?

The problem there is that the word "al-Taqiyya" literally means: "Concealing or disguising one's opinion's or strategies at a time of eminent danger, wther now or later, to be able to deveive and manipulate for personal gain. Qur'an verses 3:28 and 16:106 say that is perfectly acceptable to make a treaty with a Christian or Jew only if you plan to break it later and destroy them. This owuld DEFINITELY need ot be considered and would almost negate any form of "peace" treaty. This is the reason that about every 10 years, the Middle-Eastern Muslims demand "land for peace" only to chip off another section of Israel with their threats. They make a treaty and then break it with a demand for peace and it seems to work every time. You can't trust a covenant with someone who's scriptures tell you that it's okay to destroy you and break the covenant at any time.
