“It’s Iran vs. Israel”
WASHINGTON TIMES EDITORIAL
March 8, 2008

EDITORIAL SNIPPET: “Thursday’s terrorist attack in Jerusalem in which eight seminary students were killed by a Palestinian gunman, and the latest fighting between between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, are more than new chapters in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: They are part of a much larger struggle underway between Iran and Israel. As crowds took to the streets of Gaza celebrating the carnage in Jerusalem, Hamas issued a statement declaring that it “blesses” the operation. The Iranian-backed Hezbollah’s al-Manar television station called the massacre at the yeshiva a “heroic” operation against an “extremist” school.

Iran and Syria have long been the major arms suppliers for Hamas. A senior Israeli military intelligence official said Monday that all of the 20 long-range rockets that had been fired from Gaza into Israel since Feb. 28 were Iranian-made Grads, which have a range of approximately 12.5 miles. Hamas and another Iranian-backed group called the Popular Resistance Committees have said they have upwards of 300 of the missiles in Gaza.”
