Hezbollah in Bangkok

Interesting, don’t you think?

And, apparently this wasn’t just an arrest of some mid-level admin guy who was out raising money for the organization. Nope, this was an arrest of someone who was already far along the way towards implementing a terrorist attack in Bangkok. A BIG terrorist attack. And, people think that somehow Hezbollah won’t ever get to them?

They are already in South America and Mexico. They have already been found in the US and Canada.

They just stopped a massive terrorist bombing in Thailand. How long do you think it’s going to be before they fail to stop a massive terrorist bombing in the US?

Threat from Sinai

This is something that we’ve been worried about for a while – the Sinai border with Israel.

It is routinely used by Bedouin to smuggle all kinds of things into Israel – drugs, prostitutes, weapons and terrorists. Until now, Egypt has had a tight control on access to the Sinai and few weapons and terrorists have been able to gain access. Not so now.

Libyan weapons are flowing unchecked into the Sinai and terrorists are having a field day – with a free hand to do what they want. This is NOT good news to anyone that wants to see peace in the Middle East. Hamas no longer needs to just shoot rockets into Israel from Gaza, they can now launch attacks over land on Eilat and into southern Israeli cities.

I was planning on doing something else today, but my plans got derailed by an email. I talk about the email in today’s OmegaShock post, here. And yes, you should read that post.

What I want to describe here on Israel Outlook, is a book written by the subject of the email, Richard Maybury. The name of the book is The Thousand Year War in the Mideast – How It Affects You Today.

I have lived in the Middle East for a decade and a half, analyzing everything I could find about the place, and I can truthfully say that the book is unusually accurate – while being subtly flawed.

Tehran Initiative

Joel Rosenberg is unsettling.

He has a gift for getting things right and writing about it in a way that helps his readers understand difficult issues – issues that are both real and horrifying. That scary nature of his writing may dissuade you from picking up his books, but it is his accuracy that should convince you of the need to read what he says.

Many of the 1027 terrorists that have been (or are to be) released are horrifyingly evil – evil in ways that defy description. How can these… people, be so despicable?

How can they have such joy in the death of innocent people? Children?

What twisted mind can smile and have joy when she is told that she hadn’t just murdered three children – that she’d murdered eight. The woman that I’m referring to is Ahlam Tamimi, journalist and TV announcer for an Arabic language television station – young, attractive and the poster girl for Palestinian terrorism.
