Only
weeks after signing a
“historic” nuclear
agreement with Iran in Vienna on July 14th, the NATO axis and
its prime ally
Israel are already escalating their threats of an overt war on Iran,
Lebanon
and Syria.
Meanwhile, the brutality of NATO- and Israel-led genocidal overt and covert wars on Yemen, Syria and Iraq reaches new extremes...

On Monday, an unnamed Israeli senior security official told Walla news that his country’s military is more prepared now than in previous years to conduct a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities should the orders be handed down to do so.

[emphasis added]
Throughout my time in office I have consistently viewed Israel’s security as sacrosanct. [...] My Administration has pursued an unprecedented level of military, intelligence, and security cooperation with Israel [...] [N]o [U.S.] administration has done more for Israel’s security than mine. [...]
As I have underscored repeatedly, it is imperative that, even as we effectively cut off Iran’s pathways to a nuclear weapon through implementation of the JCPOA, we take steps to ensure we and our allies and partners are more capable than ever to deal with Iran’s destabilizing activities and support for terrorism. [...] [W]e will maintain powerful sanctions targeting Iran’s support for groups such as Hizballah, its destabilizing role in Yemen, its backing of the Assad regime, its missile program, and its human rights abuses at home. Critically, I made sure that the United States reserved its right to maintain and enforce existing sanctions and even to deploy new sanctions”

excerpt from: IDF troops prepare for possible incursion into Syria
by Yoav Zitun, Ynetnews, 17 August 2015
Military exercises in the area over the last two weeks have focused primarily on a scenario of offensive operations inside Syrian territory in response to possible action from the Syrian border such as the infiltration of dozens of terrorists armed with anti-tank weapons, machine guns, grenades and light weapons into one of the communities along the border.
The exercises included possible IDF responses to such infiltrations with troops firing at fixed points on the Syrian side of the border. Simultaneously, officials expect a barrage of mortar bombs to be fired at communities in the Golan Heights during such a scenario.
