| Commander of Iran ground forces: 'Israel too weak to attack Iran' |

| [Iran Press TV] The commander of Iran's Ground Forces says the damage Israel sustained during its offensives against Leb and the Gazoo Strip has rendered it incapable of "opening a new front" against Iran. On Saturday, Brigadier General Ahmad-Reza Pourdastan said Tel Aviv was still convalescing from the 'indescribable blows' it received from the 33-Day War of 2008 on Leb and the December 2008-January 2009 Gazoo War, Fars News Agency reported. "Today, the aggressor Israeli Army is a crippled one," he asserted. Fighters with the Lebanese resistance movement of Hezbullies defended Leb against the Israeli invaders during the 33-Day War and Tel Aviv was compelled to withdraw its troops without having achieved any of its objectives. The Gazoo War also saw Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, preventing Tel Aviv from materializing its stated aims of destroying the Paleostinian resistance movement and halting rocket-firings at southern Israel. Pourdastan, meanwhile, said, "the Armed Forces of the Islamic Theocratic Republicof Iran are ready to respond to any threats," against the county. On November 6, Israeli President Shimon Peres threatened that an attack against the Islamic Theocratic Republicwas becoming 'more and more likely.' Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Military Affairs Ehud Barak have also reportedly been lobbying the Israeli cabinet to approve of a military strike on Iran. |

| #1 Meanwhile, Iranians with dual citizenship are bugging out. This also probably means that they are taking considerable assets with them, which on its own will negatively impact the Iranian economy. |
