The old “Lost in Space” TV series, had three major characters, the very young boy Will Robinson, Doctor Smith, and “The Robot,” who, when danger was coming, would cry out the words of our article title.
Th is
is what the robot would be calling out to Israel today if he read the Aretz Sheva article, which follows.
Believe me, this may seen like just another one of the many small insignificant reports in a daily barrage of new threats against Israel, but I assure you, IT IS NOT!
I submitted daily reports on Soviet Missile Launches during the ancient Cold War, and being familiar with missile capabilities, I am telling you this move is getting Israel’s full attention. I am very interested to see if this planned deployment of Iran’s Shihab-3’s into Syria actually comes to fruition, and if so, will the Israel IAF hit their installation sites before, or after they are completed. These sites will be pre-war strike material. This is a deadly decision on the part of Syria, and they had better have second thoughts about it.

Iranian Missiles Could Threaten Israel from Syria

(IsraelNN.com) Ir an is pl
anning to deploy, in Syria, missiles that can hit Israel, as a deterrent against a Western anti-nuclear strike upon Iran.
It could happen soon, the British newspaper Telegraph reports.
An agreement to this effect was signed two years ago between Iranian President Ahmedinajad and Syrian dictator Bashar Assad. The rockets in question are the Shihab-3, Scud-B, and Scud-C, which can reach any part of
the State of Israel. They can be fired from mobile launchers.
Ahmedinajad announced earlier this year that if his country feels threatened regarding its nuclear program, Israel will become its first military counter-target.
The Shihab-3 is a medium-range ballistic missile with a range of over 2,000 kilometers. It has the ability to change its trajectory more than once in mid-course, protecting it significantly against Israel’s anti-ballistic missile Arrow system. The Scud missiles have a range of 300 to 600 kilometers, and are less accurate than the Shihab.
MK Ephraim Sneh (Labor), a two-time Deputy Defense Minister who was succeeded this week by Matan Vilnai, warned at his farewell ceremony that Israel is not prepared for the dangers Iran presents. He charged the Olmert government with not providing enough funding, saying he is “not satisfied with the funding being allocated to the defense establishment to deal with the Iranian threat.” Without going into specifics, he said that some projects are progressing too slowly because they have been “financially diluted.”
Sneh also nixed the notion that there is coordination on an operational level between the Israel and US militaries against Iran, saying no such coordination exists.
