10/20/03 Several steps closer to Armageddon US helps Israel put nuclear missiles on submarines.
http://yellowtimes.org/article.php?sid=1628&mode=thread&order=0

I am still of the opinion that the missiles are something much longer range than mere Harpoons. What may be happening is that Sharon is going to start picking off his neighbors like Syria and Lebanon, using the US supplied missiles to deter other Arab nations from intervening as Sharon picks them off one by one. For all the US posturing about disarming the Middle East, it is apparent before the world that the US real goal was to disarm ONLY the Arab nations Israel intended to target with their weapons of mass destruction.

It also is apparent that JEWS control the U.S. government.
