Iran Begins Air Defense Exercises for Nuclear Sites

Appeasement and Talks sure as hell aren’t working

Well, the Iran situation is anything but cut and dry. However, the diplomatic attempts at a solution sure as hell aren’t getting the job done. The only thing that Iran, and much of the Muslim world respects to unabated force. Well within reach of Iranian missiles sits Israel, the wolverine-like country hell bent on survival. the Israelis know that the clock is ticking on their own personal Armageddon and will not sit idly by.

Iran Knows Israel will Attack

As a result, Iranian media say the military has begun large-scale air defense war games aimed at protecting the country’s nuclear facilities from attacks from the Israelis.

A military official says the drills will last five days and will cover 600,000 square kilometers in parts of central, western and southern Iran.


Brigadier-General Ahmad Mighani told Iran’s Fars news agency Saturday the drills involve Iran’s elite Revolutionary Guards and other military units.  He said the exercises simulate a real attack on Iran’s nuclear installations.

Iran often holds military exercises to show its readiness to fight perceived threats to its controversial atomic program.  The United States and Israel have not ruled out military action if diplomacy fails to resolve the Iranian nuclear issue.

The head of the Revolutionary Guards’ air force Amir Ali Hajizadeh said Sunday that if Israeli fighter planes managed to escape from Iran’s air defense system, Iran’s military would strike Israeli bases with surface-to-surface missiles.

On Saturday, a top Islamic cleric, Mojtaba Zolnour, warned Iranian missiles will target the Israeli city of Tel Aviv, should Israel attack Iran.

Zolnour, a representative of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to the Revolutionary Guard, made the remarks to state media.
