Both reports follow by less than a week the Pentagon’s confirmation that an unusually large American fleet sailed through the Suez Canal Saturday. Several reports stated that an Israeli ship joined the armada.
The Pentagon played down the news, saying the American maneuvers were routine. However, a report by Iran on Wednesday that it has enriched dozens of pounds of 17 per cent enriched uranium serves as a reminder that time is running out to stop Iran from being able to produce a nuclear weapon.
Iran’s Fars News Agency said the Israeli military aircraft landed 10 days ago at the Saudi base near the city of Tabuk, located in northwest Saudi Arabia, one of the closest areas in the oil kingdom to Iran.
Fars said that the Tabuk base will be the central station for an Israeli attack on Iran. It quoted an Islamic news site that a commercial airline passenger said the airport in Tabuk was closed to all other traffic during the alleged Israeli landings. The passenger said that "no reasonable explanation” was given for shutting down the airport and those passengers were compensated financially and booked in four-star hotels.
Iran’s government-funded Press TV reported that the Revolutionary Guards began closely patrolling the Islamic Republic’s northwestern border after noticing the American forces, which Iran claimed also included Israeli troops. Azerbaijan’s independent Trend news site also reported on Wednesday that American armed forces are in the country, which is in an armed conflict with rebels.
Revolutionary Guards Brigadier General Mehdi Moini said Tuesday that his forces are mobilized “due to the presence of American and Israeli forces on the western border.” The Guards reportedly have called in tanks and anti-aircraft units to the area in what amounts to a war alert.
Just what we need .. Involved in another war with no end !!
ReplyDeleteIdiots run this country anymore
told ya.
ReplyDeleteI hope Isreal bombs Iran back to the stone age. Diplomacy and sanctions have worked so well against Iran, they are laughing at us.
ReplyDeleteThe whole world is.
ReplyDeleteIf you dummies wouldn't have been cheering Bush on as he wasted hundreds of billions and put or men and women through multiple deployments in Iraq, we would have the resources and the political clout to do alot more in Iran. Now everyone in the world knows that we can't afford another war so why the hell would they listen.
ReplyDeleteThe Russians and Chinese see the dollar signs in Iran. Without a credible US threat to bomb all their investments in that country, why should they support our efforts? The European public and politicians barely want to fight those who attacked us on 9/11 and grew very tired after Iraq. They won't support action in Iran.
You people need to realise that this is chess, not checkers. The current status of affairs was set in motion years before. So stop all the false Obama bashing, especially when we see what republican control of the legislature and executive branch brought us too.
This is what the muslims get for messing with the jews. Israel is god's people. They are going to raise up a real leader soon.
ReplyDeleteThen everything will be great as god intended it. Only a jew can lead us to the promised land.
The muslims hate this and are jealous of the jews special status with god.
They deserve to be killed by Israel. It is our duty (America) as god's chosen protectors of Israel to help.
god bless America and Israel and may the muslims and christians turn fromt their worldly ways
11:29 Obama wont let that happen he wants to destroy Israel and the United States he will support Iran in ways you dont understand
