Israel causing World War III? Fucking called it ._.
Israel causing World War III? Fucking called it ._.Israel wants to keep air dominance over the middle east. In all of their past engagements, they have maintained air superiority, because this is what decides wars. Israel does NOT want Hezbollah or similar groups to have possession of anything that can compromise their air superiority.

And saying that Israel is trying to cause WW3 is ignorant, no one wants a world war because it would end in the death of many innocent people.

Not sure of the credibility, but it's still a frightening thought :c
In fact, the post seems rather stupid... but still, if they are planning that.... I'm scared.
Israel is mad because they won't be able to bomb Syria anymore. How cute.Right, like we bomb Syria every day...
Right, like we bomb Syria every day...Please be joking...
No but seriously, to a person like me that lives in Israel, there's been actually alot of issues with other countries surrounding us, we never truly declared war on those countries, only at the point where it got out of hand and we had to stop them, Air Forces in israel right now are the most reliable thing like Goat said, if we wouldn't have the air dominance Israel would've shrank drastically within few years being taken over by Hamas and other organizations, same thing that was with Gaza, we firstly stopped them from shooting missiles few years ago, now they've been bombing us again, so we decided to do something, we shot back, you can't say "Oh Israel is so bad because it wants to defend people." its like taking the US and turning all of the states against eachother so they would fight, that's what Israel has to deal with.
Yeah, they don't want Syria to have anti-air weaponry due to the fact that if they do have, we could be attacked by nuclear weapons or foot soldiers, while they don't have anti-air we have control of the air so we can keep an eye on what they do.Nuclear weapons? The Israel is the only country in that region who has a nuclear weapon, Syria does not have a nuclear weapon and even if they do, what difference do the SAMs make?
By the way do you even know why those air-attacks were sent out recently? to destroy different weapon shipments for different terror organizations.I wouldn't be so sure about that. Israel responded to the world only after Syria announced that it got attacked by Israel. If there was really a weapon shipment that they were destroying then why didn't they said it right after the attack?
Promised land, at first Israel was made into two, Palestinian side and Israel side, when the Palestinians had most of the territory, they decided to be assholes and wanted to take the whole country, so basically they got nothing at all.Israel was the one who wanted Palestine, not the other way around.
Considering Israel is surrounded on all sides by nations that would love nothing more than to exterminate them, I think they have every reason to worry about their national security.That's because Israel basically wanted to kick out all Muslims out of the Palestine area and surrounding areas are mostly Muslims so it's not a big surprise.
As for the Israeli vs Russia / Georgia argument, places say that Georgia didn't have any armored divisions and that their tanks were nearly all T-72s. Whereas Israel does have armored divisions and also fields the Merkava III/IVs. On the other hand, until a few years ago, Russia's military was dying from lack of funding, and while their technology is top class, they lacked actual numbers to be effective.The only reason why Israel would be able to put up a hell of a fight is because of the US financial and military support otherwise Russians would crush Israel but if this were to happen then we would probably have a 3rd world war and this wouldn't be Russia's or Syria's fault.
Israel would put up a hell of a fight for sure against Russia. Israeli forces are not only trained and up to date technologically, but they're also battle-tested and determined. They're also supported by the USA, who can field more tonnage out on the water than the next fourteen largest navies combined, and enough tanks and planes to surpass both "quantity is its own quality" and "quality over quantity". They have quality and quantity.
Basically, if Syria and terrorist groups get their hands on modern SAM systems, it means they can knock down Israeli jets, which means they can make Israel more vulnerable, which means they have greater incentive to attack and exterminate the "heathen" Jews. So to Israel, the weapons systems are a clear and present threat to their security and safety.Considering the recent attacks done by Israel they obviously don't want Palestine to retaliate or even have a way to defend them selves. Also don't forget that they would only be able to knock out Israels jets only if they violate their air space, besides, I'm pretty sure Russians are going to be in control of those missiles anyway.
That's because Israel basically wanted to kick out all Muslims out of the Palestine area and surrounding areas are mostly Muslims so it's not a big surprise.
From what I've read, it seemed like it began because Palestine refused to give up land to the Jews after the Holocaust through the UN Partition Plan, which sparked a civil war between the Arabs and the Jews. The UN Plan was approved and after the British pulled out, Israel went ahead and declared themselves a state (Seeing as they were technically approved by the international community at the time), at which point other Arab nations intervened in Palestine, where Israel won.Well, you can't blame Palestinians for not wanting to leave their home.
And that, while there were Israelis that wanted to force out the Palestinians, originally many Jewish leaders supported living in peace with their neighbors, but fought back when Palestine refused to give up any land.
The Partition Plan was supposed to let the two states share the land, living in different parts of the country. Many Jews already lived in Palestine, making up 33% of the population. Iirc, it wasn't as if the Palestinians living in the new Jewish state were going to be kicked out, seeing as the Jews originally wanted to live together in peace.Israel was created in a territory that belonged to Muslims and they didn't agreed The Partition Plan in the first place.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1948_Arab-Israeli_War (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1948_Arab-Israeli_War)
The 1947–1948 civil war in Mandatory Palestine started on 30 November 1947, one day after the UN General Assembly vote on the UN Partition Plan.[31] It finished on 14 May 1948 when the Jewish People's Council approved a proclamation which declared the establishment of a Jewish state in Eretz Israel, to be known as the State of Israel.[32]I think we could agree that mistakes were made by both sides and should talk about what is going on right now instead of what already happened.
During this period, the Arab and Jewish communities of Palestine clashed, while the British, who had the obligation to maintain order,[33][34] organised their own withdrawal and intervened only on an occasional basis.
From January onwards, operations became increasingly militarized. A number of Arab Liberation Army regiments intervened inside Palestine, each active in a variety of distinct sectors around the different coastal towns. They consolidated their presence in Galilee and Samaria.[35] On 16 February 1948, UN Palestine Commission to the security council reported that: "Powerful Arab interests, both inside and outside Palestine, are defying the resolution of the General Assembly and are engaged in a deliberate effort to alter by force the settlement envisaged therein."[36]
Arab Palestinians left, fled or were expelled in large numbers, especially after Jewish forces took the major seaport of Haifa in April 1948.
The Partition Plan was supposed to let the two states share the land, living in different parts of the country. Many Jews already lived in Palestine, making up 33% of the population. Iirc, it wasn't as if the Palestinians living in the new Jewish state were going to be kicked out, seeing as the Jews originally wanted to live together in peace.Does that really give Israel the right to occupy current Palestinian land though? Since the UN divided the land in 1947, Israel has occupied most of the Palestinian area the UN promised Palestine, and the Golan Heights.
Well, Israel believes they have the right to occupy the land because they were the victims, they were attacked, and they won. The Arab nations lost, and they had to cede land as part of the various peace treaties. It's kind of like when various Axis nations in World War I were separated into different nations after they lost.Even if they did get land from winning the Six Day War, that doesn't give them the right to inch in closer on Palestinian territory. Also, the Treaty of Versailles isn't the best thing to reference because it's one of the main reasons that World War II even happened.
The obstinacy of France (and the Allies) in refusing to forgive Germany's massive debts, which caused hyperinflation and extreme poverty in Germany's economy, was the major factor of Hitler's rise to power, not just taking a strip of land from Germany.
Also, Israel probably took every single time the Arab nations and Palestinians attacked the country to take more and more land. There's been like, what, 8 wars in the region involving Israel alone?
Israel was created in a territory that belonged to Muslims and they didn't agreed The Partition Plan in the first place.I think we could agree that mistakes were made by both sides and should talk about what is going on right now instead of what already happened.
Do I really need to? You can go to wikipedia, youtube or even check some of the recent new posts regarding these events. Also may I ask you people how exactly did you formed your thoughts that Israel is right in this? I formed mine by looking trough numerous reliable youtube videos, the comments of those videos, wikipedia, heck I suppose I could even say all I could find from the internet, so for me, it's really hard to understand why Israel is being supported.[citation needed]Spoiler (click to show/hide)
