As rockets fly, launched from Gaza into Israel, at Tel Aviv, at Jerusalem and elsewhere, the near future seems clear and I will Stand With Israel.

Israel will soon be at full on war with Hamas.

I don’t quite know where to start.

Perhaps with Egypt.

Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood president is condemning Israel for their offensive.

Offensive?

Yes, for that is exactly how those bent on the destruction of Israel view Israel defending itself. An offensive.

Rockets, hundreds and hundreds of them, launched by Hama from Gaza and raining death and destruction from the shy in Israel has drawn the response OF Israel and for putting up a defense, for firing into Gaza as a response, Islamists deem Israel as being on the offensive.

It’s Absurd Squared.

Israel has every right to defend itself and its people against such deadly aggression and frankly, their ability to contain themselves to the extent they have is astounding to me.

Israel is also being condemned by the corrupt United Nations. This, naturally, comes as no surprise.

Also joining the anti-Israel chorus, and disgustingly so, are Obama’s voters. This too should come as no surprise as Obama’s foreign policy, as we have outlined on countless occasions, is designed to embolden our enemies and the enemies of our allies. Namely, Israel.

Yesterday, Kim Kardashian tweeted support FOR Israel and immediately, her throngs of liberal/socialist tweeps descended upon her like a pack of wolves. They wished HER dead. Wished the destruction of Israel and leveled at her, vile names and comments.

Within 5 minutes, the woman famous for being famous removed her tweet, having no intestinal fortitude for standing with Israel.

Such is the life of the rich and vapid.

On the night of the election, less than 2 weeks ago, Obama supporters showed their hatred for Israel. Be warned, not only are they moronic, they speak a disgusting language.

Undoubtedly, many Jews in this country also voted for Obama and thus, the destruction of Israel. One wonders how they might feel were they under the falling rockets right now.

The Timing.

One can’t help but marvel at the timing of the Hamas attacks against Israel.

Less than 2 weeks after a U.S. election in which the Islamists greatest supporter won another 4 years. They know they have nothing to fear and thus, are emboldened to attack. Notice how they waited until they knew they wouldn’t have to deal with a Romney presidency which, as we all know, would have stood FOR Israel and AGAINST their and our enemies.

I’ll expand on this later.

Take note also of the timing as related to other events in the region. Syria is engaged in a bloody civil war and Assad is being backed by Iran. In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood is the political wing of the Hamas attack arm and Morsi has made no secret of the fact that HE wants seeks the end of the decade’s old Israel/Egypt peace accord. As Hamas attacks, Israel responds and Egypt now falsely accuses Israel of being the aggressor.

Iran needs more time to complete THEIR development of nuclear weapons and encouraging a war between Hamas and Israel will keep Israeli forces somewhat occupied for a time.

Convenient, yes?

It’s Going to Get Worse Before it Gets Worse.

Make no mistake, this is already war it just hasn’t been so classified yet.

Israel has called up 75,000 “reservists” and tanks are massing along the Gaza border. Israeli reservists are similar to OUR…EX Marines. No such thing. Both are active as long as they can fog a mirror.

The ground war is sure to start within hours and possibly before I finish this article. In fact, the only thing that seems possible to stop it would be Hamas to come to their senses and cease their rocket attacks on Israel.

They will not come to their senses.

Hamas will continue their attacks as they have the U.N. and Obama in their corner.

Egypt and Morsi has urged Obama to step in and convince Israel to cease defending themselves. Obama, reportedly, has urged Morsi to negotiate a cease-fire.

“You stop it.”

“No…YOU stop it…”

“No…YOU…”

It’s obvious that NEITHER Morsi NOR Obama want a thing to do with stopping ANYTHING.

The Obama Effect.

To understand the adverse effect of Obama on tensions between Israel and Gaza one must go back before the election.

Before the 2008 election.

Obama’s ONLY trip TO Israel took place when he was a 2008 candidate and, at that time, tensions between Gaza and Israel were high.

At that time, Obama pressured Olmert to put an end to those skirmishes BEFORE the election and AFTER the election, to end Israel’s actions in Gaza before his inauguration.  Israel was, at that point, capable of destroying Hamas’ ability to attack Israel permanently but Obama pressured Israel’s Olmert to make a deal with the Palestinian Authority.

That deal was for Israel to cede 100% of the West Bank to the PA along with all of Gaza, create a land link between the two, give all Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem to control of the PA and to internationalize the Temple Mount along with the return of thousands of Palestinian refugees.

Olmert bowed to the Obama pressure and offered that very deal.

Abbas quickly turned it down…Lock, stock and smoking missile launcher.

AFTER his inauguration, Obama traveled to Egypt and gave the first speech of his “Condemnation of America” tour and who sat in the front row as honored guests? The Muslim Brotherhood.

After that came the Arab Spring and Obama said Mubarak must go.

Mubarak went and Obama said that the Muslim Brotherhood must have a seat at the table in forming a new government in Egypt.

Hillary Clinton said that the Muslin Brotherhood was a reformist group. Uh huh…

Morsi said that the Brotherhood would NOT seek the leadership role or the presidency in Egypt. Uh huh.

Prime Minister Netanyahu visits Obama in the white house and what does Obama tell Netahyahu in a chat before the cameras?

That Israel needed to pull back to their pre-1967 borders.

All of these things, the “deal,” the speech, the honored guests, support of the Arab Spring, the seat at the table and the pre-1967 borders nonsense were all intended to show support for the enemies of Israel. Intended to embolden the enemies of Israel.

“Time and space” for diplomatic solutions with Iran…More emboldening of the enemies of Israel.

Silence toward the populist green uprising in Iran…More emboldening of the enemies of Israel.

Leading from behind to remove Gaddafi from Libya to have him replaced by elements of al Qaeda…More emboldening of Israel’s enemies.

Running guns from the Benghazi Consulate to Syrian “rebels” who are affiliated with al Qaeda…More emboldening of the enemies of Israel.

Stand Down orders as Americans came under attack by al Qaeda affiliates in Benghazi…That…THAT goes even a step beyond.

How do our enemies and the enemies of Israel perceive THAT move?

Well…If an “American president” won’t lift a finger to help his own people being attacked, it’s a fair bet he won’t lift a finger or utter a whisper of support for Israel if Israel is attacked.

Watching and Waiting.

It was 2:00am in Israel this morning when I was chatting, via social media, with my friend Dr. Gary Katz who lives under threat from Hamas rockets. Sleeping in Israel these days is overrated and under appreciated.

Doc tells me that the people of Israel are behind Netanyahu and understanding of the situation.

They watch and they wait.

So too, do Patriots here.

We watch and wait for what we know to be coming. A ground incursion necessary for Israel to protect herself and her people from the forces of Islamist evil.

We watch and wait for the world’s chorus to grow and for Obama to add HIS voice in condemnation of Israel and their actions of self-preservation.

Hamas will continue to fire rockets, Israel will continue to shoot as many as possible out of the sky and fly sorties against the missile sites in Gaza.

The world will condemn Israel for killing Palestinian civilian and turn a blind eye to the FACT that Hamas is using those civilians as human shields, firing rockets from THEIR neighborhoods into Israeli neighborhoods.

Hamas places their missile and rocket launchers in Mosques, hospitals, schools and neighborhoods and aim them at Israeli civilian centers but Israel, in the blinded eyes of the U.N., the Islamist world and in the eyes of Obama’s supporters is the evil one.

Why would Obama supporters feel this way?

Simple.

Because they, just like the enemies of Israel and our enemies, have gotten the many messages sent by Obama’s own actions. As Obama feels toward Israel, so too will his mindless and vile followers.

As Hamas and their ilk continue to attack Israel, the words of the world’s last standing statesman, Prime Minister Netanyahu, ring in my ears:

“The truth is that if Israel were to put down its arms there would be no more Israel. If the Arabs were to put down their arms there would be no more war.”

Today, Hamas could still put down their arms.

Tomorrow, they may never again have that option.
