Islamic Jihad leader brings Iranians into Gaza -- Israel
2007-09-06
(KUNA) -- Israel's security bodies on Wednesday charged an Islamic Jihad leader with bringing dozens of Iranian military experts into Gaza Strip.

The Israeli Debka intelligence and security site quoted security sources as claiming that the Iranian experts, previously working for Hizbullah, were brought by Dr Mohammad Al-Hendi to provide military training for Jihad activists. According to Debka, the training covered not only launching missiles but developing them as well, so that they could carry more explosives and reach a further range. Debka also claimed that the Israeli security bodies had asked Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to interfere and stop the flow of Iranian experts into Gaza saying they had obtained relevant information.

#3  According to Wikipedia, and depending on the source, the US economy is at present almost as large (or slightly larger) than the entire European Union. The US economy is almost as large as China and Japan combined. For us to fall below any of those would imply a HUGE economic turndown in the US. And if the US economy gets a cold these days, the rest of the world gets pneumonia.
