Report: Israel Threatens to Destroy Alleged 'Iranian Rocket Factory in Lebanon'
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Israeli authorities have reportedly issued a warning to Hizbullah over the alleged development of what they said were “rocket manufacturing installations in Lebanon mainly situated in Hizbullah strongholds,” Israeli media reports said on Monday.
Israel's Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman warned “Hizbullah over the development of Iranian rocket manufacturing installations inside Lebanon,” the reports said.
It added that the Israeli security services are “seriously” studying the possibility of “destroying the Iranian weapons factory.”
Hizbullah and Israel have fought many battles including a devastating 34-day war in 2006 that killed 1,200 people in Lebanon, mainly civilians, and 160 Israelis, mostly soldiers.
Border skirmishes have broken out occasionally since then, and Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said in his latest statement that any future confrontation would be "very costly for Israel".
Tensions were rising this week along the frontier, with Israel accusing Hizbullah of expanding observation posts to conduct reconnaissance missions across the border.

the fear of the unknown makes the zionist state living in a state of panic!

I was about to mention something about 'fear of the unknown' but you beat me to it. Yes, it is fear that is driving Israel and it is not normal fear: it is the unknown fear that you know about.
Please, keep posting and never fear the unknown.

Israel's Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman warned “Hizbullah over the development of Iranian rocket manufacturing installations inside Lebanon,” the reports said.
why warn them? Destroy it on top of these iranian terrorists' heads.

Lebanon soon will be self sufficient in developing its own weapons, weapons that would used to counter the zionist agressions and wahabi terrorist invasion... concerning the traitors who live in the country, jail them, because they are the source of discord!

good to see you again southern.....
You mentioned 'Lebanon soon will be self sufficient in developing its own weapons'... are those weapons being manufactured by the Lebanese Ministry of Defense for the benefit of the Lebanese Armed Forces or are they manufactured by hezbollah for the benefit of Iran and Hezbollah? If so, will hezbollah give some of these weapons to the Lebanese Army that you always say " God Bless".

justin, hezbollah will give as many weapons and ammos to the Lebanese Army as it did in 2007 when the Army was running low fighting Fateh al Islam deep inside Hassan Nasrallah's own red lines; ie nothing!

Southern, weapons manufactured in Lebanon like the alleged ones pertinent to this article do not fall under any embargo or vetoing. Besides there was an elegant solution proposed by a FPM official when the issue of Iranian arm to the Lebanese army arose and excuses like yours were given. Why doesn't the LA, in coordination with Hezballah, "raid" weapons warehouses belonging to the Hezb under whatever pretext and confiscate the weapons. Win, win. The LA gets some needed weapons and the Iranian offer to arm the LA does not look like the empty rhetoric that it was. You would think that the Hezb, allegedly aching to strengthen the LA, would have jumped on such a solution. Nothing came of it and was never brought up again.

But Mashnouq and Aoun have implemented a bullet proof security plan for the whole of Lebanon. It seems it excludes rocket manufacturing facilities.

Israeli Fear and panic in 2006 turned the Lebanese south into rubble and sent the divine hero into hiding so deep underground he cannot remember what the warmth of the sun feels like . Wonder what the south would look like as a result of the most recent Israeli fear and panic the divine hero will tell us via a close circuit TV fiery speech.

I am sure that if the Dimona nuclear plant is hit like Hassan Nasrallah threatens the magic head Mahdi will make sure that the radioactive fallout and contamination will only affect the Jews and not the Arabs living in the occupied territories or the"righteous Jihadis" living in countries around them. Remember kids when Hassan Nasrallah speaks science goes out the window.

If true, these rockets are not and will not be directed at Israel. They have one destination only: The Arab world.

What good are these Irani weapon factories? as z enemy knows about them n will destroy them 1st thing in any future war?
Why not leave them in iran as z land over there is very vast!
It would have been better if they had installed factory for irani food such as sharshabaz, khoresh, fesengan, Ash e Reshteh , ect...

This may reach a Cuban-crisis point like in 1962 when president John F Kennedy clamped down on the transfer of nuclear missiles fron the Sovjet Union to kommunist Cuba. Why, because the americans feared those missiles in the hostile backyard. Fear is natural, fear is good. Fear made Kennedy act, and we would have had a World War 3 if the communist didnt budge. I know there are as much fear on our side of the border as there are on the israelian side. Most of us dont want to be part of this dangerous play with fire orchestrated by Irans by proxies.

I am sure most people recognize the difference between a souvereign state that has factories producing weapons under rules and regulations and an undercover iranian factory in Lebanon facilitated by a militia.
Israel did not ask anyone for permission for Operation Opera against Saddams nuclear facilities in 1981, and will probably not do it this time either.
Regarding acceptable? Is it acceptable that an iranian proxy militia in Lebanon start building missile factories without the knowledgde and permission of the lebanese people as a whole and their representatives?

Allow me to correct you, we call them herds of Shiaa not hoards.
