Eye on the Enemy: Iranian Missile Into Orbit - A Message to US
The satellite launched yesterday was fueled by liquid fuel, so the satellite was launched by a missile that was exposed for a long time on the launcher outside, to refuel. If it was a rocket for military purposes then exposing it for about 40 minutes would have damaged it.
Reform Shelters Anyway
Yediot Ahronot- Gershon Agshtein
The increasing frequency of the threats and statements of our leaders about an attack against the Iranian nuclear reactor, in the context of what was said by the Minister of "Defense", and Minister Moshe "Boogie" Ya'alon - is particularly worrisome.
It raises the following question: if we want to prevent Iranians from making a nuclear bomb by launching an air attack, then why talk about it? If we do not intend to attack, but we're only flexing our muscles to scare and threat, then why is this good?
The risk lying in this agitation, which exceeds the limits, is if the Ayatollah regime misunderstood the threat, and decided to take measures against the "Small Satan" by launching and firing the missiles in his possession, triggering Hizbullah and Hamas against us.
This takes me back to this brutal period of the West in America at the time, in the movie "the good the bad and the ugly," which included a common saying that spread around the world, "When you have to shoot, shoot! Don't talk."
Our intelligence, too, can fail in giving a warning in a timely manner as before, by not finding what Khamenei and his friends in power are hiding. I suggest, since we are experiencing a period of stillness, to reform the internal front and shelters anyway. Thus, when the warning sirens blow, we'll be ready.

Yaalon Estimates, Post al-Assad Era Will Be More Secure
"Israeli" Radio
PM Benjamin Netanyahu spoke of the ongoing events in Syria. He said at the opening of the cabinet meeting: "We have received in recent days, a reminder of the situations we are encountering." He added: "There are no moral restrictions of the various leaders to kill their neighbors and their people alike. Our strength in this region is the only thing that guarantees the establishment of security and prosperity."
Minister Moshe Ya'alon, Deputy Prime Minister said yesterday: "When we look to the international scene, we see again hypocrisy; therefore it is always the same different interests of different countries that play a very important role in terms of ethical considerations.
" In terms of what will happen after the inevitable downfall of al-Assad Yaalon said, "The importance of the power of the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria compared to that of Egypt is very low. I see a Sunni regime relatively moderate based on an intellectual totalitarian structure. And there is the probability that the era of post al-Assad will be more secure of course, with regard to the interests of Iran and Hizbullah in the region. "

Missile Launched Into Orbit - A Message to the US
Ynet - Ron Ben-Yishai
Satellite Technologies can be used to launch ballistic missiles equipped with
nuclear warheads. Those missiles could reach the United States. The experiment shows that Tehran seeks to become a nuclear power.
In recent months, it has appeared that the Iranian regime is not developing nuclear weapons, but also intending to become a global nuclear power - that can threaten not only Europe, but also the United States.
The Iranian satellite launching rocket, last night, which was developed and equipped in Iran testifies on the ability to launch missiles of a range of thousands of miles. The ability to launch a satellite into orbit requires a missile with a powerful engine that can reach a very high altitude of hundreds of kilometers. Such a task requires engines with far greater strength than necessary as the Shihab 3 ballistic missile, which can reach to 1500 and perhaps 2000 km.
