Haifa, Israel Invokes Emergency-Wartime Procedures! Israel & US Navies Practice to Defend against Iran Missile Attack

The Israeli regime has deployed a battery of its US-funded Iron Dome missile system in the southern city of Eilat close to the Egyptian border.

A military spokesperson of the Tel Aviv regime said on Monday that a battery of Iron Dome rocket interceptors “has been deployed in the town of Eilat as part of tests, momentarily modifying the sites where these systems are deployed.”

Iran Steps Up Threats to Rub Out Israel

Jerusalem does not view these threats in isolation: it links them directly to the narrowing gap that separates Teheran from possession of nuclear weapons.

Iran has in recent days unleashed a flurry of genocidal threats signaling its intention to try and destroy the state of Israel.

The messages have come at the height of a domestic Israeli debate raging over the question of a potentially imminent strike on Iran's rapidly advancing nuclear weapons program.

While Tehran routinely sends out threats of wholesale destruction against the Jewish nation-state, the past few days have been unusual due to the scope, frequency, and audacity of the threats.

General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, for example, head of the Revolutionary Guard's air force, claimed he "welcomed" an Israeli strike because it would give Iran a reason to "get rid of Israel forever."

Egyptian President Mohamed Morsy will travel to Tehran to attend the Non-Alignment Movement (NAM) Summit on 30 August, according to state-run MENA.

This will mark the first time since Iran’s 1979 Islamic Revolution for an Egyptian head of state to visit the country.

So Israel is about to commit suicide

Iran will not relent until they have provoked an attack.

Thread: Welcome to the beginning of the end

If the Israelis attack Iran, the USA will be drawn in.

From there, you'll have to see to believe.

Iran's Defense Ministry plans to unveil six important defense industry achievements in the presence of the country’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

The projects pertain to various defensive areas, including missile and electronic technology and aerial and sea defense initiatives, and will be unveiled during a ceremony on the occasion of the national Defense Industry Day on August 21, Fars News Agency reported.

Israel should have attacked Iran's nuclear facilities seven years ago, according to former Israel Air Force Chief Maj. Gen. (ret.) Herzl Bodinger.

So what. Every single time, everything they present is either old tech with a new name and a new paint job OR it's new stuff that doesn't work and is produced in very small amount.

Iran is a paper mouse.

Mofaz said that as opposed to an Israeli strike, which would at most delay the production of nuclear weapons, an US-led attack could deliver a final blow to the Iranian plans and even topple the regime.

“Two months ago I sat opposite Obama and the US’s top defense officials and I am convinced that he will do anything to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran,” said Mofaz, adding that he believed the US president would make a public statement to that effect within weeks.

Can you imagine what will happen if they bomb Iran's nuclear facilities now, and they are loaded with highly radioactive fuels/materials?

Even if the Israelis use only conventional bombs, they could blast all of those materials out into the environment.

Therefore, any attack on Iran by Israel, will be done primarily to draw the USA into the battle?

YES.

The Israeli attack will open with a coordinated strike, including an unprecedented cyber-attack which will totally paralyze the Iranian regime and its ability to know what is happening within its borders. The internet, telephones, radio and television, communications satellites, and fiber optic cables leading to and from critical installations—including underground missile bases at Khorramabad and Isfahan—will be taken out of action. The electrical grid throughout Iran will be paralyzed and transformer stations will absorb severe damage from carbon fiber munitions which are finer than a human hair, causing electrical short circuits whose repair requires their complete removal. This would be a Sisyphean task in light of cluster munitions which would be dropped, some time-delayed and some remote-activated through the use of a satellite signal.

A barrage of tens of ballistic missiles would be launched from Israel toward Iran. 300km ballistic missiles would be launched from Israeli submarines in the vicinity of the Persian Gulf. The missiles would not be armed with unconventional warheads [WMD], but rather with high-explosive ordnance equipped with reinforced tips designed specially to penetrate hardened targets.

The missiles will strike their targets—some exploding above ground like those striking the nuclear reactor at Arak–which is intended to produce plutonium and tritium—and the nearby heavy water production facility; the nuclear fuel production facilities at Isfahan and facilities for enriching uranium-hexaflouride. Others would explode under-ground, as at the Fordo facility.

A barrage of hundreds of cruise missiles will pound command and control systems, research and development facilities, and the residences of senior personnel in the nuclear and missile development apparatus. Intelligence gathered over years will be utilized to completely decapitate Iran’s professional and command ranks in these fields.

After the first wave of attacks, which will be timed to the second, the “Blue and White” radar satellite, whose systems enable us to perform an evaluation of the level of damage done to the various targets, will pass over Iran. Only after rapidly decrypting the satellite’s data, will the information be transferred directly to war planes making their way covertly toward Iran. These IAF planes will be armed with electronic warfare gear previously unknown to the wider public, not even revealed to our U.S. ally. This equipment will render Israeli aircraft invisible. Those Israeli war planes which participate in the attack will damage a short-list of targets which require further assault.

Among the targets approved for attack—Shihab 3 and Sejil ballistic missile silos, storage tanks for chemical components of rocket fuel, industrial facilities for producing missile control systems, centrifuge production plants and more.

Ike is operating in the 5th Fleet AOR, somewhere off the coast of Iran.

I doubt he's the only person saying that.

There is always a lot of saber rattling with middle eastern countries. I think the key is to not listen to what they say but to watch what they do. It certainly looks like Israel is very close to having all their ducks in a row and it won't be long before all these rumors of war turn into the real deal.

Agreed. The predictions for October 15th seem reasonable.
