’Israel’: Hezbollah Acquired, Deployed Yakhont Cruise Missile, with 300 Km Range.

’Israel’: Hezbollah Acquired, Deployed Yakhont Cruise Missile, with 300 Km Range.(AlManar).

Israeli navy officers said Hezbollah has already deployed the Russian cruise missile, Yakhont, with a range of 300 kilometers and capable of striking Israel’s entire Mediterranean coast, World Tribune reported.

“We assume that advanced Yakhont missiles have also reached the hands of Hezbollah, and we are preparing for that,” Rear Adm. Eli Sharvit, commander of the naval base in Haifa, said.

The Israeli officers said Hezbollah deployed Yakhont in 2013 about a year after the Syrian Navy received the P-800. They said repeated Israeli efforts to block the delivery of the weapon from Syria to Lebanon were partially successful.

“Hezbollah is a highly functional organization, active in its sector,” Sharvit told a briefing on Feb. 25. “It continues to arm itself with strategic weapons, and has not stopped trying to get its hands on weapons that will influence [future warfare].”

The officers said the navy was being trained and equipped to foil the Hezbollah or Syrian missile threat against Israel. They said Hezbollah could use Yakhont to attack Israel’s new natural gas facilities in the eastern Mediterranean.Hmmmm.....'Wishful thinking'.

International female delegation to visit Gaza.

The International Solidarity Movement - a group whose goal is to support the Palestinians through non-violent protest

International female delegation to visit Gaza.(PresTv).

A delegation of more than 100 women is planning to visit the Israeli blockaded Gaza Strip to meet Palestinian women in the coastal enclave on International Women's Day.

The members of the delegation come from countries such as France, Belgium, the United States and Ireland.

The participants are part of an international campaign called "Women Against the Blockade of Gaza." The group aims to discuss and address the difficulties faced by Palestinian women in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Non-governmental organization Code Pink: Women for Peace has said it is forming a US delegation of 15 women, who will join the international coalition.

The purpose of the delegation, it has said, is to show solidarity with the women of Gaza, to bring attention to the unbearable suffering caused by the Israeli blockade, to educate people back in their home countries, to push for opening the Gaza borders, and to bring solar lamps to help with the electricity shortage.

Gaza has been blockaded since June 2007, a situation that has caused a decline in the standard of living, unprecedented levels of unemployment, and unrelenting poverty.

The humanitarian crisis facing Gaza has escalated as the only power plant in the Palestinian territory has stopped working since November 1 last year due to severe fuel shortage.Hmmmm......no word if they return as future mothers?

Relation and cooperation between Iranian regime and American anti-war groups.

Relation and cooperation between Iranian regime and American anti-war groups. HT: Iraniansforum.

Public and court documents show how the Iranian regime was able to infiltrate, manipulate and high jack some of the American anti-war groups and use them in a vast lobby campaign to influence public opinion and US policy with Iran.

The Iranian regime has forged alliances with various political, social, religious and cultural organizations in the US to further its political agenda. 

However, the practical alliance between the theocratic regime of Iran and part of American left and anti war groups could seem the most inconvenient and difficult to understand. Two episodes best define the troubling nature of the relationship between the Iranian regime and part of the American left and peace movement.

The first episode occurred in September 2008, when the Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad came to New York to attend the UN general assembly. The Iranian mission at the UN invited the peace and religious groups to meet with him. One hundred-fifty representatives of these groups participated in a reception with Ahmadinejad, some of them praising the Iranian regime and offering help to combat US pressure and sanctions against Iran. At the end of ceremony, Ahmadinajad who received a gift joyfully expressed his desire to be a member of American peace movement. (See document).Read the full story here.
