Iran: Fajr 5 missiles? What Fajr 5 missiles?
2012-11-19
TEHRAN (FNA)- Chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Alaeddin Boroujerdi strongly rejected the Zionist regime's allegations that Iran has supplied Hamas with 'Fajr 5' (Dawn 5) rockets, saying the resistance does not need Iranian rockets.

The Islamic Republic of Iran's Supreme Leader has always stressed that "Iran withholds no assistance to the resistance", but Iran's support is of "spiritual kind", Boroujerdi told Iran's Arabic-language news channel, Al-Alam on Sunday.

The senior Iranian lawmaker reiterated that the resistance has obtained the required capability, power and self-sufficiency and does not need backup or rockets from other countries.
Yup, the Gazooks have their own missile factory. Totally operated by Gazooks .. in a suburb of Tehran...
His remarks came after the Zionist regime and some western experts claimed that rockets launched by the Ezzedeen Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic resistance movement Hamas, to target Israeli cities were Iranian-made.

Also a senior Palestinian leader warned on Saturday the Zionist regime against launching a ground incursion into the Gaza Strip, saying that the coastal enclave would became a graveyard for Israeli soldiers otherwise.

"If the Zionist regime decides to extend its aggressions to ground assaults, Gaza will turn into a graveyard for Israelis," Lebanese satellite television Al-Manar quoted a member of the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, Mushir Al-Masri as saying.

"The resistance is fully prepared to confront Israel and our clashes are intensifying," he said.

#2  Just thinking out loud, no expertise. But wouldn't it work out about the same if Israel took out Qom, Iran's refineries, and their Air Force, as opposed to taking out the Nuke program? Why go for the hard targets? Let them keep them. See how they work without electricity, water, and gas.

#1  Uh, uh, SILLY CRITICS - THE ROCKETS ARE FAJR-III'S, NOT FAJR-V's, THUS IRAN IS INNOCENT.

gut nuthin.

IMO the greater threat from Iran at present stems from MSM-Net Artics oer past months that the latter is allegedly sending out teams or detachments of Advisors to organize the disparate Militant Groups into Hezbollah-style military + political entities, i.e. well-armed, well-$$$, + capable of electorally dominating or taking over regional Local, State Govts vee "legitimate/
popular" processes.

Again, I expect Iran to remain on the strategic defensive, hence the impetus is on its regional + international proxies = NGOS to defend the Paleos.
