Why aren't ISIS and Al-Qaeda attacking Israel?

Why aren't ISIS (ISUS) and Al-Qaeda (Al-CIAeda) attacking Israel?

For all of Israel’s whining about how it is being targeted by “Islamic extremists” and “terrorists,”(which should be translated to mean Palestinians, Iran, or any other secular or nationalist Arab government in the region) there is a curious and deafening silence when it is confronted with actual terrorists and Muslim fanatics such as ISIS, al-Nusra, and the myriad of other fundamentalist groups waging jihad in Syria and Iraq.

This bizarre silence has yet to raise the eyebrows of the somnambulant general public.

While Israel does not respond with its usual apoplectic frothing of victimhood and danger regarding these terrorist groups that have now so infested the Middle East as to make the entire region a general war zone, it is important to point out that these same terrorist groups do not launch coordinated military attacks in Tel Aviv, they launch them in Damascus and Mosul – cities belonging to secular nations seen by Israel as the enemy.

The question then is “Why?” Why does Israel not share the concern it has over Palestinians, Iranians, Syrians, and Lebanese with al-Nusra, ISIS, and al-Qaeda? Why do these groups wage jihad against Israel’s enemies but not against Israel itself?

Indeed, this curious fact was also raised by Nabil, the former al-Qaeda commander who recently gave an interview to Al-Maydeen where he stated that these organizations of Islamic terror were in fact controlled by the CIA.

Seems like a reasonable question. I guess we're supposed to believe that these groups would rather attack fellow Moslems (even if they are different sects) as opposed to attacking the one common enemy in the region?

First a little history.

Everyone knows that our government was supporting the Syrian "rebels" in hopes to overthrow yet another nation in the Middle East.

Our government was so desperate to attack Syria, they tried to blame the Syrian government for the gas attack but the American people didnt buy it.

Not so coincidentally, these same rebels would join ISUS.

Coming full circle, it was reported that the head of ISUS is a Mossad agent.

And more recently, Israel has apparently been caring for wounded ISUS fighters?

You could argue that Israel is taking the position that the "enemy of my enemy" is my friend, which many believe was the reason for Israel's creation of Hamas.

But IMHO, all of this just gives more credibility to the premise that these groups are Western backed and controlled.

It took our government some time, but they finally got to bomb Syria.

Israel do not have oil. They are after money.

They are after Christians. Why aren't they attacking the USA is the question.

You could also posit that they seem to be attacking only weak targets they can either dessimate or take their resources and equipment from

They've yet to really attack anyone that could put up a real fight( or obliterate them)


They know if they attacked Isreal right now it would be game over for them


I know the conspiratorial mind wants to jump to the "they don't attack Isreal because they are just an arm of the US" but the other seems more logical to me

They would be killed in minutes if they tried.

Unlike us, Israel does not play around. If they rolled up in their Toyotas.

Israel would quickly send them to hell.

Why take over oil fields when Obama wants to give them even more money.

I guess we'd also have to ask, what do they plan on doing with the money? I doubt theyre going to head over to Ibiza and buy property in Monaco.

I'm thinking that they would use any money to keep fighting which leads us right back to the question, why arent they attacking the one common enemy in the region...?

And that still doesnt explain Al-Qaeda in all of this. Instead of attacking Israel (for example), they're busy fighting alongside the West in Libya?

The Samson Option comes to mind. Then again ISIS is crazy enough to attack Israel once Syria, Iran, Iraq and others fall.

Well, theres an ocean between us and them.

But again, it leads right back to the idea that they are our cohorts and are helping us to justify actions that we couldnt justify before all this started (not for a lack of trying).

Though it wouldnt surprise me if a few end up over here. Of-course any attacks on US soil would just lead to a loss of more freedoms, but it would be for our own good, to "keep us safe".

First of all, it's called IS, not ISIS. Secondly, Israel is not caring for wounded IS fighters. So please, actually read arcticles you are referering to as a "credible" (foreignpolice, cough) source.

Even the first sentence debunks your stupid claim:

Israel is quietly cultivating ties with moderate Syrian rebel groups operating along the country's U.N.-monitored cease-fire line with Syria, providing medical care and other unidentified supplies to the insurgents while potentially extracting a valuable vein of intelligence on the activities of President Bashar al-Assad's army as well as extremist opposition forces within Syria.

Thirdly, how can IS fight on a million fronts and attack a country owning nuclear arsenal and having one of the biggest air force in the world.

IS is fighting:

Other "moderate" rebel groups
PKK terrorists and Peshmerga
SAA, Hizbullah, Shabiha, Shia Milita
Iraqi Army
Iraqi Shia militia
Iranian rev. guards aiding Shiite Iraqis and Nusayri Syrians

Also, the IS as of now doesn't border with Israel yet. So how do you think they will cross over the Golan heights to fight Israel? Please... stop trying hard to portray the IS as a product of the West.

Use your brain to figure why IS has not attacked Israel yet.

One thing people fail to realize is that there are so many tribes and factions within the
Arab world that hate and despise each other more than they hate and despise Israel or the U.S.
In fighting in the Arab world has been going on for thousands of years and it will never end.
They cannot agree on anything or come together in any kind of sustained cooperation for any length of
time before they start killing each other.

Israel only needs fund and back the enemies of their enemies..then sit back and watch.

I'm trying wrap my head around the whole;

We create a social construct of PTSD in the lands we "Liberate."
Our gov. killed people who had zero to do with 911, now they're pissed.

Meddling in foreign states does not justify wars for resources.

Yeah, the 'cry of the wolf' should have originated out of Izzy being how she cries over Spilled milk at every opportunity.

The silence from the Zionist regime is deafening. They will either sit back and watch Muslims kill Muslims, which they love to do...or they will create a false flag to enter the conflict so they can continue to kill Muslims themselves,
which they love to do even more. So it's a win win for them.

The show must go on...............

Just as peculiar why aren't they attacking the United states if they have all these alleged cells in the country?

Because ISIS and Al-Queda know Israel will fight for real and kill them. Israel doesn't kowtow to the pc crowd, afraid to hurt people's feelings because they might be of the same nationality as the agressors. They don't cover it up if there's a Jihad killing (as what happened in NJ in June). In fact, they just killed the Hamas kidnappers who killed the three Israeli teens in June. They don't f around and always revenge spilled Isaeli blood, like it or not.

You do know Israel itself admitted that Hamas had nothing to do with the kidnapping of the 3 Israelis months ago... my God..

ISIS and Al-Qaeda are not attacking Israel because the "terror" threat is nothing like it is purported to be by the propaganda machine.

ISIS is just the latest embodiment of shadow-fear, the modern day elusive boogeyman used to scare people into believing that some "attack" is lurking just around the corner.

Nothing has changed in the BIG picture, really, since the first Gulf War. The powers that be just keep spinning new faces and acronyms of "terror".

Real terrorism exists, but not nearly to the degree that we are led to believe. It's a charade, mostly. The real motivations clearly lie in money, banking, and oil. The "moral" principles are an illusion.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Then how come the father of one of the kidnappers all but admitted his son did it?

"Omar Kawasmeh, father of one of the dead men, complained that his son’s body was “covered with bullet wounds.” Asked whether his son was responsible for killing the three Jewish teens, he changed the subject and did not respond.
“Even if they are guilty of something, arrest them, don’t shoot them,” he said."

Again, Israel always gets their man, despite what people like you think.

You are correct though. I was incorrect when I said Hamas, should have said Palestinians. Israel says Hamas wasn't responsible for the kidnappings, but a local group of Palestinians. Regardless, they got them.

"Israel admits HAMAS didn’t kidnap the 3 Israeli teens after all"
"International experts told her it was likely the work of a local group, acting without concern for the repercussions:"

Could it be possible that Israel has secret ties to ISIS? Our government may or may not know if they do. Do you think Israel's leaders would tell anyone if they were somehow funding a terrorist organization?

Now, this is just a possible answer. Speculation that should be at least considered. If radical sects of the muslims get funding, they can cause more chaos and fear in the muslim world. If the US comes to help the Islamist states, it makes them look good.
