MASSIVE AIR AND NAVAL AND MARINE FORCE BUILD UP AROUND IRAN, LIBYA, AND SYRIA
JUNE 29 2011
CLIP FROM BELOW = Foreign Secretary's words follow the concentration of large-scale American naval, air and marine forces in the Mediterranean, the Aden and Oman straits, the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea. This seaborne army is positioned for strikes against targets in Iran, Syria and Libya at 12 hours' notice.
British Foreign Secretary William Hague stated Wednesday, June
29: "Iran has also been carrying out covert ballistic missile tests and rocket
launches, including testing missiles capable of delivering a nuclear payload
in contravention of UN resolution 1929."
This was reported first by debkafile last year and repeated in the face of US
and Israeli denials. Hague was the first Western leader to confirm DEBKAFILE
disclosures up to and including our report Tuesday on Iran's 10-day exercise.
Our military sources stressed that Iran's plan to launch a monkey into space
and therefore a 330-kilo payload by the Kavoshgar-5 was evidence that it had
developed a rocket capable of delivering a nuclear warhead at any point on the
planet. Click here for this report.
Hague also pointed out in a statement to parliament that Iran had announced
plans to triple its capacity to produce 20 percent enriched uranium
"enrichment levels far greater than is needed for peaceful nuclear energy."
debkafile's military and intelligence sources note that the Foreign
Secretary's words follow the concentration of large-scale American naval, air
and marine forces in the Mediterranean, the Aden and Oman straits, the Persian
Gulf and the Arabian Sea. This seaborne army is positioned for strikes against
targets in Iran, Syria and Libya at 12 hours' notice. It may be safely assumed
that Hague's ominous disclosure was pre-arranged with Washington.
In the past month, our sources have also quoted several Saudi royal princes as
warning that if Iran attained a nuclear capability, it would not be the only
Persian Gulf nation to be armed with a nuclear weapon and missiles for its
delivery.
As Iran's military exercise went into its third day, Aerospace commander of
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Amir Ali Hajizadeh announced the
launching of the new Ghadir radar system which he said had been "designed and
manufactured to discover air targets, stealth planes, cruise missiles,
ballistic missiles and satellites at low orbits." The system, claimed to have
a range of 1,100 kilometers in radius and height of 300 kilometers, was said
to be operational in Iran for the first time.
In another blatantly hostile gesture towards the United Sates, Hajizadeh
announced that Russian military experts had been allowed to examine American
drones said to have been shot down in the Persian Gulf for a close-up
examination.
This disclosure came on top of his announcement Tuesday that the fourteen
2,000-kilometer range missiles tested Tuesday were designed exclusively to hit
American bases in Afghanistan and Israel.
He referred to the downed US drones in the plural while not indicating where,
when and how they were shot down. The sort of inspection permitted the Russian
military delegation of the pilotless aircraft's electronic systems is normally
conducted discreetly so as not ruffle relations.
This time, it was most unusually made public not a good message for Russian-US ties especially in view of Moscow's steps against Washington's war on Libya and bid for sanctions against Syria.
By letting Russia know how they were shot down and displaying models
constructed by reverse engineering, Tehran and Moscow indicated they shared
the secrets of the US drones' vulnerabilities to attack.
Six months ago, Iran announced it had downed two American drones on January 2.
At the time, Revolutionary Guards navy commander Ali Fadavi said the planes
shot down were among the most modern US navy drones with a long-range
capability.
The US Fifth Fleet operating in the Persian Gulf never responded to this
Iranian statement but it did not deny it either. Generally, the American navy
in the Middle East uses the unmanned MQ-8B Fire Scout helicopter for
information-gathering missions, but the Iranians did not specify whether the
American drones came from ships or from other air bases in the Middle East.
