’Israel’ Afraid: Hizbullah Weapons to Hit Our Gas Rigs, Iran A Significant Player

Once again, the "Israeli" nightmare of Hizbullah threatens the apartheid entity not only on the military level but on the economic one.

"Israel" Afraid: Hizbullah Weapons to Hit Our Gas Rigs, Iran A Significant Player

The "Israeli" Security Council head Yossi Cohen warned the Knesset Economics Committee that "Israel's" gas infrastructure is vulnerable to attack.

He added that according to an assessment of the security situation in "Israel's" economic waters, "Hizbullah has the weapons to hit "Israel's" gas rigs. Our enemies' weapons in this theater are good enough to hit any given platform. Our enemies in the region are multiplying, having been spurred on by Iran and Syria."

""Israel" is already planning for this. We believe that the fact that we have only one gas pipeline and one entry to our sole facility does not give us the capability necessary to consolidate the necessary security," he feared.

Cohen's words came as the Knesset Economics Committee is continuing its discussions of the natural gas plan.

He argued, "In order to understand the Middle East, you have to think strategically. The Middle East has crumbled over the past five years. Entire countries that once existed have disappeared. Syria is not a country, Iraq is questionable, Egypt is stable at the moment, but Jordan is facing a grave challenge."According to Cohen, "Israel" must make sure to strengthen its bilateral relations with the neighboring countries, "and the sooner the better."

Cohen then spoke about the Iranian threat, saying that Iran had made huge gas discoveries. "When the nuclear agreement with Iran is signed, it will become a very significant gas player. Countries that have avoided contact with Iran will fall over themselves now to get there."
