ISRAEL NOW PREPARING TO INVADE GAZA

Shortly after 7/7 I wrote to the ISC prophesising an Israeli invasion of Gaza. Settlers were being pulled out of the area amidst great protest from them. Why would the Isreali govt do such a thing to its own people? I suggested to the ISC that 7/7 was allowed to happen to drum up support for such an invasion, or at least create sympathy for such an invasion.

On 11th September 2001 during a live interview after the false-flag terror attacks of that day, Benjamin Netanyahu said that 9/11 was good for Israel and would create sympathy for Israel. I believe our 9/11, 7/7, was designed to provoke similar emotions.

Gradually the noose has been tightening around Gaza. Power cuts. Bulldozing of walls by occupants of Gaza to get into Egypt to buy essential supplies following Israeli blockades.

And now this report from EIR suggests that Israel is finally preparing to invade Gaza.

If it does I predict hell. For this is what Israel was created for. Naked aggression against starving, weak, unprotected Palestinian civilians to provoke anger and outrage, and ultimately war, And with Netanyahu, Lieberman and Barak in control that war will turn nuclear. And when it does everyone will be involved, thus turning a regional war into a full scale nuclear world war.

Just as requested by Albert Pike.

I ask Russian President Vladimir Putin not to wait for follow-up meetings from Annapolis, but to get in there NOW and arrange an extraordinary emergency meeting of all states who attended Annapolis, plus Iran. It is clear the neighbouring states of Israel have no trust in America. It is also clear it is America driving the rush to war.

LaRouche: Israeli War Plans
Against Gaza Are Insane

by Jeffrey Steinberg

On Jan. 17, Lyndon LaRouche warned Israeli leaders that if they go forward with their reported plans to conduct large-scale military operations inside the Gaza Strip, they will be unleashing chaos throughout the region, and sabotaging any hopes of a regional peace breakthrough. "It would be insane, suicidally insane," LaRouche commented. "Israel's own self-destruction would be virtually assured."

LaRouche issued the warning after EIR had received detailed reports from Israeli and U.S. intelligence sources, that a recent meeting of the Israeli security cabinet, following President George Bush's recent eight-day visit to the region, had approved massive military operations into Gaza, to uproot Hamas command and control, and to assassinate or arrest leading Hamas figures—all in the name of "peace." Indeed, even before Bush completed his regional tour, Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) units launched a series of targeted military operations in Gaza against Hamas, killing dozens of people, including the son of a prominent Hamas leader. The Israeli actions followed on the heels of the U.S. President's visit to Ramallah, on the West Bank, where he held a meeting and media availability with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. This led the PA leader to threaten to resign on Jan. 18, unless the Israeli military operations were immediately halted. Abbas is reportedly furious at the Americans and the Israelis for what appears to to him to have been a setup, giving the impression that he had somehow signed off on the assaults into Gaza.
Barak's Blind Ambitions

According to both the Israeli and American sources, Labor Party leader and Minister of Defense Ehud Barak has been a proponent of the Gaza strikes, arguing that no two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict is possible, so long as Hamas remains a strong and popular force among Palestinians, and retains control over Gaza. It is an open secret in Israel that Barak is convinced that military victories in the Gaza campaign can catapult him back into the prime ministership.

According to one well-placed Israeli source, the Olmert cabinet has approved a large-scale military invasion, to occur anytime after April. This, however, is premised on the survival of the Olmert government, which is awaiting the release of the Winograd Commission report on Jan. 30, 2008. The Commission has conducted a thorough review of the disastrous July 2006 Israeli invasion of Lebanon, which aimed to crush Hezbollah. After a month of air strikes and ground operations, Israel halted the invasion, having failed to seriously damage Hezbollah's forces in southern Lebanon.

It was a nightmare defeat for Israel. The Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces, Air Force Gen. Dan Haloutz, was forced to resign, and the new Israeli military leadership overhauled their Northern Front war plans, to take into account Hezbollah's surprisingly effective asymmetric warfare operations. Any new Israeli military operation against Hezbollah would, according to American and Israeli sources, involve massive air and ground conventional attacks by the IDF, and would likely precipitate a war with Syria, and perhaps, even Iran.

If the Winograd report focuses the blame on Prime Minister Olmert, there could be further cabinet resignations, forcing early elections. In that case, Likud leader and former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is waiting in the wings. He has been an open advocate of Israeli preventive strikes against Iran's purported nuclear weapons sites. Recent polls suggest that Netanyahu would win a snap election for prime minister. A close ally of U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney and others in the pro-British war party in Washington, Netanyahu would also likely launch a full-scale invasion of Gaza, but, unlike misguided Labor Party leaders, who believe that peace with the Palestinians can be achieved over the political corpse of Hamas, Netanyahu would see the smashing of Gaza as a guarantee that peace would be off the table for the indefinite future.
