According to Israel daily Ha’aretz (May 23, 2012), Itay Baron told the paranoid Knesset members that “some 3500 missiles in Syria and Iran are currently aimed at Israel“.
Israeli deputy Chief of General Staff Maj. Gen. Yair Naveh, on Tuesday said at a defense forum that Israeli army needs many hours to neutralize Hizbullah’s air defense systems before targeting civilian infrastructure.
“Hizbollah seeks to turn the quantity into quality; if they can wreak havoc on the Israeli homefront, they will be within striking distance of a ‘victory photo’ that would influence decision-making among Israeli political echelons,” he said.
In other words, the Israeli generals are expecting another military humiliation at the hands of Hizbullah, as they received in 2006.
Hizbullah has no military or commercial planes, no tanks, no helicopters and no ships or submarines – and ofcourse no nuclear bombs (Israel has estimated 400 nuclear bombs). In fact, even Lebanese army has none of those arms which make IOF world’s fifth most powerful army.
Anyone knows that Israeli military has been milking US taxpayers to the tune of $3 billion per year since 1980s? Israel’s current military budget stands at $13.9 billion as compared to Iran’s $6 billion.
