Israel is monitoring two Iranian warships about to pass through the Suez Canal for Syria and warn they might act.
Israeli's Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman says that "Israel cannot ignore these provocations," according to ynetnews.com.
"Unfortunately, the international community is not ready to deal with Iran's repeated provocations," Lieberman said, according to the Jerusalem Post.
Lieberman added that the warships was "a provocation that proves Iran's nerve and self-esteem is growing from day to day."

A friend gave me Lone Survivor by Navy Seal Marcus Luttrell which I just finished reading. I understand your W88s comment completely.
The ships will likely be trying to stay as close as possible to the 20km line, with Israel watching them the whole time. Someone else brought up the topic of ELINT as being part of the mission (would the Iranians be smart enough to even consider it?), so Israel needs to fight the temptation to “paint” the ships with targeting radars. Just make it clear they are being tracked by visual/IR/Low light.
NUKE QOM.

I agree. I’m also certain that Israel has Zero’s number.
Excellent.

Better we exterminate them before they exterminate us.
Read their Koran - they are serious about your being killed, enslaved, or your “submitting” to Islam.
Those who hold that Islam is its own death warrant agree with St. Ann, who said invade, convert, or kill them.
Saint Ann sounds like Satan
Ferstay?
Shi’ite happens!
