Iranian military experts are active in the Gaza Strip and in Sinai, according to a high-ranking official in Jerusalem. The official said the Iranians entered the areas via Sudan and Egypt, and added that some of the rocket-launching systems in Gaza were manufactured under Iranian supervision.

The senior source also claimed that Islamic Jihad continued to fire rockets at Israel even after the recent cease-fire was announced because the Iranians pressured that organization, and the popular resistance groups, to continue acting against Israel.

It would seem Iran is feeling pressure from the successful operations conducted against their nuclear program. It's well known they've been attempting to retaliate in any way possible.

Iran has read the writing on the wall.

“Syria and the Assad types are doomed?”

The efforts are short term distraction to keep Syria alive.

Find them, kill them and the people hiding them.

The male mid-east mind-set is based primarily on genitalia. Killing is an answer, but better yet, would be castration, public and through, then send half of them back to where they came from and in a very short time all of this “crap” will cease.

My suggestion always was to send the bacon wrapped severed head of a mullah to Assad with a “wish you were here” message.

Figured that would stop things very quickly.

Isn't the Sinai part of Egypt?
