Russia's announcement Tuesday that it would work to promote international support for the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority, its intention to supply missiles to Syria and its opposition to sanctions against Iran present a worrying trend for Israel.

 
According to information received by Israel,
Russia is set to transfer thousands of advanced anti-tank missiles to Syria.

Russian nuclear fuel deliveries to Iran's Bushehr plant are set to begin in
March 2007.

"Israel must take a moral stand and send a clear message to the global community that we will not pursue diplomacy or commerce with nations working towards our annihilation," a statement from the group said. Link to this Story 
 
2)  Israeli Official:  "Syria, Hizbullah Will Attack if Iran is Hit"

Israeli security officials said if any war breaks out involving Iran, they expect Syria, Hizbullah and terrorist groups in Judea, Samaria and Gaza to join the fray and attack Israel.  This assumption is echoed by terrorist leaders from several groups.

The security officials told WorldNetDaily.com that the greatest threat Syria poses to the Jewish state are the country's missiles.  They noted that Syria recently test-fired two Scud-D surface-to-surface missiles, which have a range of about 400 km., covering most Israeli territory.  The officials said the Syrian missile test was coordinated with Iran and is believed to have been successful.  It is not known with what type of warhead the missiles were armed, but Syria is known to possess weapons of mass destruction...

Terrorist leaders are saying openly that an attack on Iran will lead to a coordinated counterattack on Israel and US interests.  A senior leader of the Islamic Jihad group says that during any attack on Iran, his organization has been directed by Iran to "wreak havoc" on Israel with suicide bombings, rocket attacks and "special surprises."  He said rocket attacks would be launched from both the Gaza Strip and from Judea and Samaria.

The Islamic Jihad leader, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he said the topic was "very sensitive," told WND that Iran has been providing terrorist groups and hostile nations surrounding Israel with contingency plans for attacks against the Jewish state and American regional interests in the event of war.

Tehran is expecting its nuclear installations to be attacked, he said.  He threatened that his terror group will target American interests in the Middle East whether any purported strike against Tehran is carried out by Israel or the U.S.  "The Zionists and the Americans are coordinated 100 percent.  It doesn't matter who attacks Iran, we are planning to hit them both," the terrorist said... 

Syria and Iran signed a military agreement in which either will respond if the other is attacked.
