Israel Says Iran Assists Hezbollah in Firing Missiles; Israel Deploys Missile Defense
Update: Of course Iran is denying they had any troops in Lebanon.

We will soon find out. If the Cold War was WW3 then this may end up being WW4. No matter what you call it, there’s plenty of updates to report.
It turns out it wasn’t an explosives-packed unmanned aircraft, but actually an Iranian Missile. Newer reports suggest the missile may have been fired from an Iranian battery, and with the direct assistance of Iranian Revolutionary Guard soldiers. If it is confirmed, it will escalate the conflict to global proportions.
ISRAEL ACCUSES IRANIAN GUARDS OF HELPING HEZBOLLAH
Hezbollah guerrillas who are bombarding Israel with missiles are being helped by members of Iran’s revolutionary guards, Israel said tonight.
Israel also warned the terror group has Iranian missiles that could hit Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, major Israeli cities that sit up to 124 miles from the Lebanese border.
FOX News reported the news and Ambassadar Dennis Ross commented saying that it was “in sense, driven by Iranians.” Other reports out of Israel suggest that 100 or so Iranian troops are in Lebanon, advising and assisting Hezbollah. The Revolutionary Guard of Iran has close ties with Hezbollah, so such cooperation wouldn’t be shocking. Ambassador Ross continued, stating that Iran has provided Hezbollah with as many as 12,000 missiles, which is an “almost inexhaustable supply.”
Also, Israel has begun the deployment of American-made Patriot Anti-Aircraft and Missile Interception system. The Patriot System is now being used as an anti-ballistic system. These batteries are being deployed in Israel’s port city of Haifa.
3 PATRIOT BATTERIES STATIONED IN HAIFA
The IDF has stationed three Patriot anti-ballistic missile batteries in Haifa Saturday, aimed at intercepting missiles launched at the area. Two of the batteries were deployed Saturday morning, and the third one was placed in the area in the afternoon.
Right on the Right is constantly updating on the developments.

Any attack on Israel is an attack on freedom – and freedom attacked anywhere is freedom attacked everywhere.
This is why we cannot turn our backs on Israel.
For the sake of religious freedom, for the sake of personal liberties, we must support Israel’s battle against Islamofacism and terrorism.
Israel doesn’t use the Patriot, they use the Arrow, which is designed to compensate for some of the Patriot’s shortcomings… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_missile
