There will be no peace until we stand up to Israel. Every kid there has to join the army to be trained in fanaticism and terror. That culture, all they understand is bombs and violence. See how they push for WW3 to draw in the whole world. What does it have to do with America? Who could even find these places on a map? Except that US taxpayers must pay in dollars and blood for Israel's wars: Read the last line carefully for the proof: According to him, "every bomb that falls over our heads is an attack on democracy, on the European Union and on America." ----------------------------- Source: Haaretz Service Published: August 10, 2008 Author: For Education and Discussion Only. Not for Commercial Use. Jewish Georgian Minister Temur Yakobshvili on Sunday praised the Israel Defense Forces for its role in training Georgian troops and said Israel should be proud of its military might, in an interview with Army Radio. "Israel should be proud of its military which trained Georgian soldiers," Yakobashvili told Army Radio in Hebrew, referring to a private Israeli group Georgia had hired. Yakobashvili, Georgia's minister of reintegration, added that this training provided Georgia with the know-how needed to defend itself against Russian forces in the clashes which erupted last last week in the separatist region of South Ossetia. Yakobashvili said that a small group of Georgian soldiers had able to wipe out an entire Russian military division due to this training. "We killed 60 Russian soldiers just yesterday," said Yakobashvili. "The Russians have lost more than 50 tanks, and we have shot down 11 of their planes. They have enormous damage in terms of manpower," Yakobashvili warned that the Russians would try and open another battlefront in Abkhazia and he denied reports that the Georgian army was retreating. "The Georgian forces are not retreating. We move our military according to security needs." "There was no attack on the airport in Tbilisi. It was a factory that produces combat airplanes," said Yakobashvili referring to the attacks in the country's capital. "The whole world is starting to understand that what is happening here will determine the future of this region, the future price of crude oil, the future of central Asia, and the future of NATO," the Georgian minister added. According to him, "every bomb that falls over our heads is an attack on democracy, on the European Union and on America."
Why is it not surprising that YOU thought it was necessary for us to stand up to Israel? How about we stand up to the Islamic terror that wraps around the globe? Islam is at war with Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, secular governments, etc.
Wow TT2, thank you for posting this. While spineless europeans refused to extend NATO membership to Georgia Israel was helping this young democracy to defend itself against Russian aggression. It's a truly impressive story!!!
Yep, I think it is too soon, I would not try it just yet if I were you, give it at least a few months before you do. Right now while the entire world sees Russia dropping bombs on Georgian towns I doubt anyone would take you seriously. Wait till people forget first.
a_person, what if Egypt, Libya and others started funding the palestinians with AA-capabilites as well as training Hamas operatives, providing weapons and tactical support. How would Israel feel about that? PS! Try to avoid personal attacks ...
Look at the evildoers fund war and genocide. The USA is too weak to stand up to this death cult. ---------------------------------------- 1b of Israeli investment at risk in Georgia There is concern that Israeli arms sales to Georgia may upset the Russians. Globes' correspondent 10 Aug 08 10:15 The war between Russia and Georgia that erupted over the weekend when Georgian forces launched an offensive to retake the breakaway South Ossetia region, is leaving its mark on the economies of the countries involved. Thousands of people are reported killed in the fighting. The Russian Stock Exchange (RTS) fell 6.5% on Friday to a low point last seen on May 30, 2007. Trading on the RTS was suspended an hour before the regular closing, because of the plunge. The ruble fell over 1% to 24.203/$. After the Georgian Army occupied parts of South Ossetia, moving towards the capital, Tskhinvali, and bombing targets in the area, Russia launched an air and ground counter-offensive, sending troops and armor into the region and bombing targets within Georgia.
Actually Iran and a few other countries do it as we speak and Israel feels pretty bad about it. The difference is that the Palestinians and pretty much the rest of the arab/muslim world have never recognized Israel's legitimacy, they are determined to wipe Israel off the map, they have tried before and they vow to keep on trying. I don't remember Georgia (or their supporters in the US, Israel and elsewhere) ever expressing these kind of sentiments and/or threats towards Russia. Do you? I don't remember Georgians blowing up russian women and children in malls and restaurants either. Do you? The only thing Georgia has ever wanted was to maintain its territorial integrity. PS I hope when Israel eventually bombs the crap out of Iranian nuclear program you're going to be as understanding as you are today.
a_person, just curious - do you know anything about what the making up of Georgia is - ethnic groups etc.? ... since you are defending their attacks on the regions who have had separatist governments since 1992 and 1993, as concerns of regional integrity.
