Netanyahu Shoots Down Hezbollah Drones Over Israel
It would seem things are going from worse to worserer as while US citizens prepare to see 30,000 drones over their own 'domestic' heads, Israel's Benjamin Natanyahu accuses Lebanon's Hezbollah of launching a previously unidentified drone (which has been shot down) over Israel last week. As the Globe and Mail reports (via AFP) -
"We are acting with determination to protect our borders," his office quoted him as saying during a visit to the frontier with Egypt.
"As we prevented last weekend an attempt by Hezbollah. We shall continue to act aggressively against all threats," Mr. Netanyahu said.

I would like to know how the identification process worked....
Throwing a dart at a list of enemies.
Why did Israel just deploy a Patriot missile battery atop Mount Carmel?!
http://thespiritoftruth.blogspot.com/2012/10/why-did-israel-just-deploy-...
...and why are USA Citizen Soldiers setting up a base in Jordan?
(probable the 2nd one, the first was secret).
Next thing you know Hezbollah will send Netanyahu a white-powder-filled envelope (coincidentally on CIA stationary).
They do already, it's called an eightball. SNOOOOOORT
Columbian hookers and blow, government work is the LIFE!
Mexican silver, spanish prostitutes, columbian coke, Iraqi opium...we ballin baby.

Who (other than the US taxpayer) could possibly be dumb enough to pay almost 1/2 million for a sidewinder?
NUCLEAR WAR ALERT: Is Israel Preparing For All-Out War Next Week?!
http://thespiritoftruth.blogspot.com/2012/10/nuclear-war-alert-is-israel...
Best post today.
"We're too close. Switching to guns." -Maverick
That way Hezbollah will bankrupt Israel.
Since Hezbollah satellite-controlled drones are flying over Israel, both America and Israel are cooked.
And why is the US sending a shitload of troops for an ``exercise`` starting on October 14, just before the new moon (October 15) while that sack of shit Rothkopf at the Foreign Policy website pushing for a ``few hours maximum`` strike on Iran's nuclear facilities that would help Obama win the election??
Christian zionist nutcase gold-dealer Steve Quayle is completely insane but I keep tabs on his Q-Alerts for entertainment purposes only:
"Last night I had 3 different men give me their feed back on Escalating Tensions in the Middle East and in CONUS--The Question I asked both was based on their knowledge and friends in the know--What is your personal take on Timing and Both stated that it can go hot on a minutes notice."
http://www.stevequayle.com/index.php?s=33&d=162
Yup, that's Quayle for ya to a "T" This latest foolishness from the same dimwit who said the Russian Spetznaz would be going house to house for firearms seizures this Summer and who 2 years ago swore that the entire population of the Gulf Coast would have to move 500 miles North following the BP well blowout.
Is Steve Quayle really this stupid or does he just think we are?
A month or so after 911 he on with Art Bell claiming that somebody-I forget who, had hidden nukes in 34 US cities just waiting for the order to set them off-I actually set my alarm to wake up in the middle of the night to listen to this lunatic.
Those nukes belong to Goldman Sachs. If the bailouts don't continue, that's their 'nuclear option.'
Well B-1s would be perfect to carpet bomb important targets in Syria.
Thanks for the link. A lot of good stuff there.
Went for a run last night... not a cloud in the sky... it was dark. Every month, around the new moon, I wonder if this is the month. This could really be the month. Not to say that the last 10+ years of perpetual war won't be viewed as a part of WWIII, but something bigger is still to come.
And I ran, Iran so far away.
You could always sort of tell that the Flock of Seaguls was some sort of MK-Ultra CIA mind control thing. It's so clear now, the conditioning for war with Iran. I even had the hair cut.
..prepares???

Israel might have done better to deploy an S-400 mobile system up there. Rumor is S-400 outperforms Patriot. Patriot was the hero weapon of the first gulf war shooting down many scud missiles. Only way after the war was it shown Patriot hit zero scuds. But they nailed a couple British fighter jets, knocked them clean out of the sky. So this system is not useless.
when they aren't stalking you or shooting you, they like to play ball

Wanted to chime in over the weekend by got busy. I saw my first drone fly over on Sun. I live near the northern border. I heard a hawk screech. Looked up and 100yds away and the same distance in the sky was a silent very large predator. It's done. We are in Orwellian times. Don't think for a second that what you post on zh is not being watched either.
They say you never forget the first time.
It's for your protection. State of the art defense of the US and you are complaining?
What!? Someone down-arrowed you?! Must be a virgin.
Yep, NSA's massive new data centers are to track every key stoke any American makes on any computer anywhere anytime. But this is necessary for our freedom. WHat are you a terrorist? We honor our protectors at NSA they are heros and we welcome their files on every ZH post we make. This one ought to get me on a list for the first opening in a USA run secret foreign torture prison. We have them, so our government employees there need customers. You and me, fill up the torture prisons, it is all about American freedom and honor. We are freedom warriors, must defend American freedom. NSA, CIA are our friends. Thank one of these heros next time you meet one, no?
You're really giving the NSA far too much credit.
hezbollah has drones? r u fucking kidding? that was some rocks shot down or a flying shoe. the drone wasn't hezbollah, at least not hezbollah the way it's being spun.
Don't be silly. A smart high-school kid can build a drone these days. A "drone" is just an RC plane with camera and/or weapons. This isn't out of the reach of ANYONE in the industrialized world.
I'm sure the missile they used to shoot it down cost 1000x more than the thing itself.
You can build a nice quad copter with a camera for under $300. A Patriot missile costs at least $1,000,000.
That makes the ratio about 3333:1.
They shot it down with an F16, probably used a sidewinder missile, I think they run around $100k each.
Ah that wasn't in this or the linked article, cheers.
Not sure if the IAF even use Sidewinders any more, they have been using sucessive generations of their home-grown Python missiles for short and medium range air to air engagements since at least 1982. As I understand it the most recent version of the USAF Sidewinder incorporated staring-array technology from the Python 5, a development of the Python 4 sensor, which was a development of the earlier US Stinger MANPAD staring-array IR homing sensor.

"Asymmetric warfare, FTMFW!" - sayeth the arms dealers.
It's funny, the cognitive dissonance that mouth breathing neocons seem not to recognize when they brag about how Reagan bankrupted the Soviets through military spending while preaching the need for the war on terror. tasty.
USA will pay for that missile. No skin off Netanyahu's ..,er, .. back.
Close, you and I and hard working Americans will pay for that missile.
right now nobody pays; the fed creates money to buy the bonds to fund the deficit. down the road though....
Seriously, a cheap setup like this can be had for a few hundred dollars:

fuck yeah
you down Park Ave? I flew mine along Madison Ave. Can't believe these haven't been outlawed by some NDAA Patriot act bullshit.
Right on Park Ave. That's awesome. You can't enforce every law on every person at every moment in every place.
Review? Range to controller, flight time, loudness, etc.
Review: for the price it's incredible. strap some bombs on it and you can do some serious damage. Of course in NYC the cops will try and bust you unless you fly it in the park, bombs notwithstanding. I tell you Hezbollah should order like a thousand of these fuckers, if only they knew......maybe Netenyahooo can gift the radicals a few...
thanks
"Civilian" drones are ranging to 50k, here in Europe ... a couple of grand will buy that technology.
A few hundred pounds will get you out to 10k. .. all equipment, "off-the-shelf". Comparatively little operator' skill required, owing to the level of autostabilisation.
I seem to recall that in one of the Egypt/Israel disputes (Yom Kippur?) the Israelis used a fleet of "drones" to defeat the Egyptian Air Defence. The Egyptians launched their SAMs at what they believed to be Israeli war planes. They weren't war planes, of course. The Israeli air force attacked whilst the Egyptians were re-loading their air defence missile systems.
Simple fixed-wing models, with cheapo radar-reflectors, might confuse the hell out of Israeli Air Defence. Such models would certainly demand a disproportionate response, so they'd be good value.
Didn't Iran snag a drone right off the air?
Nothing worst than an ignorant with an opinion...
This is getting old. If Israel and the US have such a hard on for WWIII, why don't they just get to it already. Then again, maybe if they keep posturing long enough, there won't be any money left for a global war. Not that lack of $$ has stopped them before.

"Not too much off the top please." - Netanyahu
Well.... You can't go blaming the US for spying on Israel.
It must have been their new model, the one with beard and turban.
Passport was found at crash scene in perfect condition.
It worked on sheeple once.Why change ?
I'm sure it was labelled "Made by the Hezbollah'.
written in English, of course, and spelled incorrectly.

Important tip, never mix Hezbos and lezbos, you'll blow up the dike!
Jump you bitches... Oh, wrong thread. Jump anyway.
It won't be so easy shooting down those space aliens........when they come to bail us out that is.
Well their planet is made from diamonds after all.
Not only that, their planet has 8 times the mass of Earth despite the fact that it's only twice the diameter!!! OMG

So October 20th is the date?
False flag attacks always occur during planned training events simulating the actual attack which will occur.
I can hear the tower now....."This is a drill? Right?.......What? This is not a drill???!!!!!"...While the missles rain in from covert launchers in Iraq right on the Iranian border.
This will evoke an immediate response from the IDF against the Iranians.
Will there be Photoshop involved? Or do "the agencies" got their back?
All ploys to get Boobis Americanus into accepting drones as an everyday part of life. Drones stories will start to appear weekly. Rappers will have their own drones parked in front when AMTV cribs shows up. Its a slow, methodical method to get us comfortable with drones in our everyday life.
Like Hezbollah really has a drone!!! Next we'll learn Occupy has drones!
1984 is a manual, it's a manual!!!!!!!!
hell, you can buy your own drone. works with your iPad. Brookstone.
"Pimp My Dronez"
Hezbollah flew a drone along the northern Israeli coastline past Haifa during the war in 2006. They have them and can use them, especially to find and pin-point to target naval units for engagement with coastal-launched antiship missiles, which they also used successfully to hit an Israeli warship in 2006. There is a video on utube showing the attack, from the launch to hitting the ship. Fast missile too, it only took a very short flight time to get out to the middle horizon and hit their frigate. They also said several times in 2006 that they have missiles (not rockets) that can target and hit central Israel's major cities. They most probably can do that. What is for sure is that any drone overflight is not there for PR value, they are looking for targets. Which indicates they have weapons that can hit them with precision at that range.
Can he draw a cartoon of that drone?

Would not be surprise to see US citizens shooting them down too since they are a complete violation of our right to privacy under the US constitution.
Should we ask Afghanistan to, covertly, supply us with stinger missles?
That's the way it works; right?
Whose "we"? the PEOPLE or the GOVERNMENT
Since the PEOPLE are going to wind up paying for Barry & Bibi's Insane Adventure, perhaps Bibi could send the PEOPLE some of Mistrals to deal with the Barry's drones (30,000 MPADS seems like a reasonable trade for worthless fiat and precious blood)...
I ask since the CIA has been asking Al-CIAda to supply them with unused stingers since forever...
Did you see that admission on the hill yesterday that 20k man portable anti
aircraft missiles went missing in Libya ?
Slipped out in the Hearing.
I want some.
Despite all Crazy Daffy's other antics e was telling the truth when he said he bombed the Bengazi armory to keep weapons out of the hands of the opposition, after Fatah Younis announced a red light special/going out business sale. A bunch of people in Africa have been worried for while (since they already have problems w/ planes falling out of the sky) but I'm surprised Uncle Sam is admitting fallibility, unless its CYA.

I propose we follow the United Nations lead and return North and South America to the native Americans!
We can start by surrendering our armed forces and nuclear stockpile to the Indians.
That is probably the only way we will rid ourselves of the FRBNY.
OH shit! I forgot we actually purchased Manhatten from the Indians so we can keep that part. So much for getting rid of the Fed!
If we ever did such a deed the Israelis would declare war on the Indians immediately.
Well ,to tell the truth,I thing the Native Americans got the better part of the deal.I don't think by this time they would insist on people limiting themselves to 16oz of soda.
So true!!!
That would make Bloomberg the leader on the United State of America?
What about the Louisianna Purchase???? We gave the French 4 million dollars for that piece of land.
I don't think it would count since the French stole it from the Indians.
No one believes Benyahoo any more. No one has to any more.
OMG. Hezbollah is attacking Israel??? I am soooooooo voting for Romney.
City of God
To privileged church came rapidly for Christians, after the Great Persecution, when other religions were burned out. Constantine underwent a mysterious conversion experience. From then on, the imperial treasury provided funds for the building and extension of churches, the clergy enjoyed special privileges and exemptions. Intolerance of other religions became the norm. His adopted role was that of savior, to prepare humanity for the kingdom of God.
Funny, what happens when an empire gets sacked. The US runs at the pleasure of a majority of robots, women keeping passive aggressive men, as a buffer for capital against change coming from labor. Do you really think the rest of the world is going to accept Napoleon this time, or that labor is going to provide the US Navy with the technology required to enforce this rule of law? Try, try, try again.

God has imprisoned everyone;
You are God’s slave;
Let no one split what God has put together;
Love is a mirror;
My yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is LIGHT;
If God doesn’t discipline you, it means you are illegitimate;
Let everything you do reflect the integrity and seriousness of your teaching;
Keep a clear mind in every situation;
Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business, working with your hands, and you will not need to depend on others;
Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the lord enthusiastically;
Those who use well what they are given, even more will be given;
When someone has been entrusted with much, even more will be required;
The lord will deliver you from every evil;

Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? Why is life given to a man whose way is hidden, whom God has hedged in? Blessed is the man whom God corrects, For you will have a covenant with the stones of the field, and the wild animals will be at peace with you.
The faith, not the blood, of Abraham shakes the empire.
Wisdom 11:21
“God ORDERED all things by measure, number, weight” “It is through reason that we are men. For if we turned our backs on the amazing rational beauty of the universe we live in we should indeed deserve to be driven there from, like a guest unappreciative of the house into which he has been received.” “Science was forced to depart from the ancient ways of thinking by the Condemnation of 1277 at the University of Paris. 219 condemned propositions of Aristotle. This was the Birth of Modern Science.”” A true Revolution is to destroy completely the past and build upon it something new. Since the Church is not only in the past but in all time, you must destroy the Church.”” Science in many ways replaced Faith and Man replaced God.”
Maybe.
god god god... blah blah blah...
Following that logic, today's Catholic church is simply the tattered remainder of the Roman Empire.

Not sure why this hasn't crossed ZH yet, but, last week's surprising jobless claims figure was skewed optimistically due to one state's failure to report all claims, a Labor Department Spokesman confirmed today. The suspected state is California which should fuel conspiracy claims.

Lemme guess, they can't afford to calculate the number. Amirite?
Yea, but the distance on an R/C helicopter or plane is simply not that far, before you lose control. I seriously doubt you could fly miles and still have full control...
You need it GPS enabled. Tie in a Tom Tom and you're ready to target the Wal-Mart in the next county.
Banzai, may we soon please have a photo of the drone and the shooter?
I'm not particularly worried about the 30,000 domestic drone silliness. I have every confidernce that hacking community will make short order of them - talk about motivation!
Hacking community?
I'm putting my faith in the trap &skeet shooting community - "I wanna be the first kid on my block to get a confirmed downing of a drone".
Don't bother asking Obama for a comment, he's busy making plans for flying the Al-Qaeda flag on the White house in his second term.
Right after he bombs the shit out of Israel of course and arrests all the dual citizenship Israelis in government. But then he would be bombing his masters the Rothschilds and their employees in the 51st state of America.
If Obamas a muslim then I'm a banker.
You are one DMF
As far as I can tell, the Al-Qaeda flag would be none other than the Stars and Stripes anyway. Same guys.
IIRC, it was Ha-retz newspaper, that several years ago, published an image of OBL photo-shopped with the perfect representation of a Rabbi's black hat. You'd swear OBL looks the Rabbi part more so than a real Rabbi.
The point being, of course, that no one helps increase and expand the reach and pity for Rabbis like a good enemy of the God's allaged "chosenites"...the Rabbis got great mileage for about 60 years turning the Germans into scum of the day, now doing quite well adding "Islamo-terrorists" to the daily diet of hate...the German hate still gets good mileage (another neo-Nazis in Germany article on the news today, yawn) but it's always good to add to the bull pen!
Well I'm sure glad this comes from such a rock-solid source as Nuttyahoo. I mean, when has he ever lied about anything?
Benghazigate
It's like the market guys. They don't even hide it anymore.
Generally speaking I agree with most of the economic analysis postede on zerohedge, but whenever something pertains to Israel the inuendo in the main post and the fetid knee-jerk responses are quite disturbing.
Freaking Hezbollah has claimed responsibility. So all the inuendo is as usual just slanderous rumor to furhter some point of view that is inconsistent withthe general intellectual honesty of the economic analysis.
Or will all the maroons start saying Nasrallah is a Likud supporter now?
http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/israeli-leader-accuses-hezbollah-drone-launch-17453907#.UHcUCcUpxmU
I dispute the Hezbollah claim. I did it myself from an eye pad. Blowing up drones is kid stuff with a couple of decent apps by your side.
Well paranoid mind, that was simple, Hassan Nasralla (Hizballa) said on TV it was their drone.
Idiots like you will always find a bullshit reason to think its a made up situation to justify a war, but hey, dont let the facts fool you ;)

We are acting with determination to protect our borders," his office quoted him as saying during a visit to the frontier with Egypt.
Riiiight. So is it alright the Palestinians have their borders back, on the West Bank?
Is it ok the Palestinians "act agressively" against threats to their territory?
You know 14 year old kids with catapults you call "terrorists" up against your 40 ton tanks
the Isreali State is so thick with hypocracy and arrogance is it any wonder they've few friends left in the world, and those few Govts are as equally deluded and deranged
If Hezblah and the Philistines were so aggressive, why would they be pushing so hard with peace loving initiatives towards Izrayel huh??
War with Syria and maybe Iran next week anyone ? I think thing will go fast when It will begin.
He has no right to complain.
After all, they *chose* to live in that neighborhood.
How much do you think it would cost to get Israel to annex my state, then we could we get them to shoot down those TSA killer spy drones that're going to be used on us?
rob, that's a good one!
Friendly disagreement with my best friend yesterday:
In publicly shouting down a Rabbinical Talmudist to his face yesterday, who masquerades as a so-called "Christian evangelist" (this racist, disgusting, bigotted, putrid scum claims with straight face as a "fact" that he has Abraham's blood in his veins, and this makes him God's "elect" chosenite...saved by "race" not grace), I declared loudly among the public audience that if God would only cause the oceans to swallow the USA and turn the USA into liquified mush today, the world would instantly be a safer place for the rest of humanity.
Friend rightly called me on this, because, of course, I have no proof the world would be safer. Friend says that if a vacuum existed, and we were gone, said vacuum would be filled by a worse operator even than ourselves.
Personally, I doubt it. How many air craft carriers do we have carrying hell and death around the world vs. the country rating second in this category? How many nuclear weapons do we have circling the world vs. the country rating second in this category.
C'mon, do the math, give me a break, friend!
The lying Rabbinical Talmudist had a friend I'll call X present who describes them both as "holy men of God." This same X thinks followers of the way (Christ) can be paid by the King to carry weapons in war and the police to enforce the King's will. To make my point, I ask this stupid foolish person who says he studies the Bible and did not know who killed Christ, I ask him about an alleged "Christian" B52 pilot who the King orders to drop a few million megatons of Satanic death ("those who hate me love death") on oh, about 6-10 million human beings including babies suckling their mother's breast.
I ask him to remember what did Jesus say about hurting a child? What is this person's spiritual fate? "He who harms one of these little ones, it is better for a mill stone to be tied around his neck and tossed into the sea." I kindly suggest he read Sebastian Junger's "The Perfect Storm" to get a taste of the forensic description of drowning, to better understand the gravity of Jesus' warning.
Seems like Hezbollah admitted to it themselves, and indeed this is another example of Israeli intelligence failing miserably: they had no idea whose it was (even days later), until Hezbollah explained everything.
Israel got badly punished in 2006 for grossly underestimating and misunderstanding Hezbollah's firepower and abilities, and they still today have practically no idea what they will have to contend with. Hezbollah's sending an Iranian-built drone 30 mins into Israel is HUGE, especially from the angle of psychological warfare.
The warmongering Israeli psychopaths are shitting themselves: they can't have a repeat of 2006 (it was so bad that countless Israeli soldiers started refusing orders and gladly went to jail for 2-4 weeks, to say nothing of public opinion regarding all the deaths). They viciously dropped all the bombs they had (+ a bunch of extra, express-delivered US bombs), and it made no difference... Their air superiority meant nothing then - how much is it worth now?
