israeli sea ops


News that Israeli warships have been operating in the Red Sea and making use of the Suez Canal. Remembering that the Bushr nuclear reactor facility is actually on the Persian Gulf, I have always believed that some sort of seaborne attack was an option. Israeli Dolphin Class subs do have the ability to launch land attack missiles. The Israelis have three of them. A combined missiles strike could do a lot of damage. Maybe they'll land commandos. Who can really say.

Once again, as with the massive air drill they conducted in 2008, the Israelis seem to be telegraphing their punch.


Will's book about the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment and the Battle of 73 Easting, is called A Line Through the Desert. It may be purchased at Amazon.
