"Air Force strikes in Gaza"
SNIPPET: "IDF retaliates for deadly Qassam attack: Air Force hits several Gaza targets, including metal foundry, smuggling tunnel; Vice PM Shalom says Israel to offer strong response to rocket attack that killed Thai worker Thursday"
SNIPPET: "IDF aircraft struck at least four targets in the Gaza Strip on Friday, a day after a rocket fired from the Palestinian enclave killed a Thai worker in Israel, Hamas security officials and witnesses said."
SNIPPET: "Israel also sent a letter of complaint to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, who is due to visit Israel at the weekend, and to the UN Security Council.
A previously unknown group, Ansar al-Sunna, believed to share the hardline ideology of al-Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the rocket fire at Israel, as well as the al-Aqsa Martrys Brigades, a wing of the Fatah movement.
Earlier, Deputy Defense Minister Matan Vilnai said that Israel holds Hamas accountable for attacks originating in the Gaza Strip regardless of the group that commits them."

“Peres: Syria delivers Scuds to Hizbullah”
By GREER FAY CASHMAN

SNIPPET: “‘N. Korea is a duty-free store for nuclear arms and long-range missiles.’”
SNIPPET: “Syria delivers accurate long-range Scud missiles to Hizbullah and other terrorist organizations, President Shimon Peres told Danish Foreign Minister Lene Espersen on Sunday.
Peres, who has previously accused Syria of speaking with a forked tongue when it claims to being interested in peace with Israel, said that Israel is closely following the transfer from North Korea to Iran of nuclear armaments and Scud missiles which are then forwarded from Iran to Syria and Lebanon. Syria can no longer conceal its support for terrorism, said Peres, who characterized North Korea as “a kind of duty-free store” for nuclear armaments and long-range missiles which contribute to world terror.
He expressed regret that North Korea has become a direct supplier to Iran, noting that the consequences of such action could lead to further killings of innocent people.
Peres made it clear that Israel knows without a shadow of a doubt that Syria is the conduit for dangerous weaponry.”
ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS.com - ARUTZ SHEVA: "HIZBULLAH SCUD MISSILES ARE 'JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG'" by Gil Ronen (SNIPPET: "“Syria has a very prominent role in enlarging the arsenal of rockets in Hizbullah's hands," he said. "Weapons transfers to Hizbullah from Syria are carried out in a regular manner and are arranged by the Syrian and Iranian regimes. Therefore this should not be termed 'weapons smuggling to Lebanon' -- it is an organized, officially sanctioned process." Even without the recent Scud transfers, Baidatz said, "Hizbullah possesses an arsenal of thousands of rockets of all types and ranges including solid-fuel missiles with a longer range and more accuracy [than the Scuds].")

“’Iron Dome doesn’t answer threats’”
By BEN HARTMAN
09/05/2010 01:09
SNIPPET: “Military analyst says claims of effectiveness are disingenuous.
Tel Aviv University professor and noted military analyst Reuven Pedatzur on Saturday strongly criticized a ballistic missile defense conference and exhibition held in Tel Aviv last week, calling the organizers’ and speakers’ claims that current defense systems can protect Israel from missile and rocket threats false and disingenuous.
Pedatzur’s harshest criticisms were reserved for the Arrow missile defense system, which, he said, does not present a defense against a possible nuclear strike from an Iranian ballistic missile. He said that since the system is not sure to work every time, and because a single atomic bomb can constitute an existential threat to Israel, the system is pointless.”

“EXCLUSIVE: Former U.S. General Warns of Chemical Attacks Against Israel”
SNIPPET: “General reveals possible Iranian/Hezbollah preemptive attack against Israel this summer in exclusive PJTV video, as Israel distributes gas masks”
SNIPPET: “EL SEGUNDO, Calif., May 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ — Major General Paul E. Vallely (Ret.) revealed sobering information regarding possible chemical and nuclear weapon activity by Iran and Hezbollah in an exclusive PJTV video. According to the retired Major General and sitting chairman of Save Our Democracy, Iran is planning a preemptive attack against Israel though its military proxy Hezbollah. A submarine in Beirut unloaded suspicious cargo that signaled the potential presence of chemical weapons. This news comes on the heels of Israel distributing gas masks to its 7.5 million citizens.
“Just in the last week, we have very definitive and confirmed information that Iran is planning a preemptive attack against Israel,” said Major General Vallely during the PJTV interview. “The other event we just uncovered news on… is that a submarine docked in Beirut a little over a week ago… Off-loaders had gas masks on and hazmat gear, indicating, to me, that some sort of chemical weapons were being offloaded from the submarine to the control of Hezbollah…. That’s why I call the summer of 2010 the tipping point for the Middle East.”
PJTV has closely tracked Iran’s development of nuclear weapons, critically analyzing the nation’s immediate threat to the Middle East region. This new evidence and commentary illuminates the immediacy and reality of the Iranian weapons program growth. During the exclusive interview, Major General Vallely explained he believes Iran already has nuclear weapons. Now, it is simply a matter of figuring out how to load the technology onto the Shahab-3 – an Iranian-designed, medium-range ballistic missile.
The Major General also commented on long range SCUD missiles, tunnels from Lebanon into Israel, and Lebanon’s possible use of child soldiers.”
