JERUSALEM (AP) - Iran has set up sophisticated listening stations in Syria in recent months to intercept Israeli military communications, Israeli security officials say. The officials offered no details on how many stations had been set up. They spoke on condition of anonymity Tuesday because they were not authorized to disclose information about defense operations.
Israel is taking new precautions because of the listening stations, the officials said. Top brass won't be allowed to bring their mobile phones into rooms where classified information is being discussed, the officials said. And generals will be assigned special areas on bases to conduct private conversations. That way, listening stations won't be able to hear sensitive conversations that might be going on in the background while generals talk on their cellular phones, they explained.
Rules governing landline conversations won't be changed because those communications are less exposed to interception.
Israeli military officials say Iran helped Lebanese Hezbollah guerrillas pick up Israeli radio communications during the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. Several months ago, all radio communications were ordered to be encrypted, security officials said.
On Tuesday, Israeli intelligence officers told a parliamentary committee that Hezbollah was replenishing its arsenal with medium- and long-range missiles, and improving its systems.
Ping. Iran trying to get the inside track on Israel’s moves.
MI Ping
Well then i think I would have to give them someting to listen to.
Oh good another cruise missile target.
Iran cannot be funding or providing for all these terrorists needs. Especially considering that Iran is hip deep in keeping the killing alive in Iraq. Somebody else on the world stage or from the UN wealth distribution of funds has to be keeping these terrorist armed and functioning.
What exactly does Syria produce and export? For that matter what does Iran produce and export?
"Mahmoud, you magnificent bastard! I read your book!"
iranian intercept technology. (without russian help - of course).
Yep! Every few days, the Iranians should hear that Mossad was going to assassinate a top Iranian gov’t official within hours. That should drive the Iranian leadership NUTS! Or just a quick blurb that "the nuclear tips have been armed & are ready for launch, Sir". Israel has been spied upon for decades by powers far more capable than the Iranians. Surely, Israel knows this, & has long had counterespionage procedures in place. Duh!
Hey! Wait a min. Those cans look like Russian cans to me! :)
You forgot about all the worldwide muslim “charities”!
Then quit bitching and waiting for the US to strike, and take out Iran. It’s easy to send the Mossad in cloak and dagger to kill a bunch of civilian scientists, now finish the job and take out the Mullahs.
You beat me to it. Charities provide much of the funding.
Worldwide muslim "charities" is mere walking around money for these globalist terrorists... no there are some heavy lifters in the production of intercept type communications and military wares getting provided as enticements for bases and oil contracts. And I am not talking about the US government... The UN oil for rotten food scam is the prototype.
To all Israeli Air Force personnel:
Immediately mount the Islamofascist Death Ray guns on all airplanes, the one Hussein ObamaSamma’s, minister spilled the beans about.
Each night fire the Islamofascist Death Ray guns at all major Iranian cities and Syrian junkyards posing as cities.
In a week, the Islamofascists hit by the rays will turn into female pigs, who will be serially raped to death by wild Russian Boars.
Do not let the NY Slimes, Compost or PRAVDABCNNBCBS or any democratic US $inators or house members know about our secret weapon. They too will be turned in female pigs in heat to be serviced by Bill Clintoon, Spitzer and the current NY governor, whatever his name is.
TEXT: Under cover operatives in place in Damascus, Iranian Embassy and forward deployed areas. Operatives posing as media reporters and camera personnel. All Commands to practice targeting restraints during initial contacts. Restraints lifted after completion of damage assessment broadcasts by operatives. Operatives expendable RPT expendable.

Israel needs to hire Navahos. Great windtalkers.
