It depends on how long this has been planned. Remember Iran/Hezb started this fight. They have had months to set up for it, and knew exactly when it was going to happen. And they didn't have to move the missile once the actual shooting started. A naval blockade is a logical step. So a month or two ago they set up the missile under heavy camouflage, like build a fake school or hospital on top of the launcher. The new PC military won't shoot a civilian buildings so you know you are safe. Then provoke a fight and wait for the ship to show up right under your guns.

But again this isn't something a "Terrorist" group like Hezb is going to pull off. This is regular military all the way and Iran is all over this.

Three Patriot anti-missile missile systems deployed in Haifa. Tiberias hit by a second Hizballah rocket barrage amid heavy damage from first

Five people injured in the earlier five-rocket volley.

Our military sources doubt whether the Patriots, positioned in an Israeli city for the first time in three years, are much effective against Hizballah rockets.

Their deployment may be intended as a morale booster.

The last time they were brought out for the US invasion of Iraq, to guard against another missile attack by Saddam Hussein.
