| Iran declares State of War on northwestern border Quote:
Iran Declares War Along its Northwest Border, Israeli Air Plan Ready?
Posted on 24 June 2010 by admin Share
There is activity on so many fronts, Iran has now declared a “state of war” in its northern section. Israel launched a spy satellite last week, a flotilla of at least two ships, one Iranian and one from Lebanon, are heading toward Gaza, intent upon blowing through Israel’s security blockade of the region. Israel has loosened overland access to Gaza, but the sea blockade still stands and will be enforced.
The U.S.S. Harry Truman arrived in the Persian gulf within the past few days, equipped with 60 Super Hornets.
Bottom line: Every nerve ending is jangling in the Middle east right now.
See previous days’ coverage on UNCOVERAGE.net
Debkafile reports:
In a rare move, Iran has declared a state of war on its northwestern border, debkafile’s military and Iranian sources report. Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps men and equipment units are being massed in the Caspian Sea region against what Tehran claims are US and Israeli forces concentrated on army and air bases in Azerbaijan ready to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. The announcement came on Tuesday, June 22 from Brig.-Gen Mehdi Moini of the Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), commander of the forces tasked with “repelling” this American-Israeli offensive. He said: “The mobilization is due to the presence of American and Israeli forces on the western border,” adding, “Reinforcements are being dispatched to West Azerbaijan Province because some western countries are fueling ethnic conflicts to destabilize the situation in the region.”
In the past, Iranian officials have spoken of US and Israel attacks in general terms. debkafile’s Iranian sources note that this is the first time that a specific location was mentioned and large reinforcements dispatched to give the threat substance.
Other Iranian sources report that in the last few days, Israel has secretly transferred a large number of bomber jets to bases in Azerbaijan, via Georgia, and that American special forces are also concentrated in Azerbaijan in preparation for a strike.
No comment has come from Azerbaijan about any of these reports. Iranian Azerbaijan, the destination of the Revolutionary Guards forces reinforcements, borders on Turkey, Iraq and Armenia.
Witnesses say long IRGC convoys of tanks, artillery, anti-aircraft units and infantry are seen heading up the main highways to Azerbaijan and then further north to the Caspian Sea.
On Tuesday, June 22, Dr. Uzi Arad, head of Israel’s National Security Council and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s closest adviser, said “The latest round of UN Security Council sanctions on Iran is inadequate for thwarting its nuclear progress. A preemptive military strike might eventually be necessary.”
Debkafile’s intelligence and Iranian sources point to three other developments as setting off Iran’s war alert:
1. A certain (limited) reinforcement of American and Israeli forces has taken place in Azerbaijan. Neither Washington nor Jerusalem has ever acknowledged a military presence in this country that borders on Iran, but Western intelligence sources say that both keep a wary eye on the goings-on inside Iran from electronic surveillance bases in that country.
2. Iran feels moved to respond to certain US steps: The arrival of the USS Harry S. Truman Strike Group in the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea and its war games with France and Israel, which included live-fire bombing practices against targets in Iran.
3. The execution of Abdolmalek Rigi, head of the Sunni Baluchi rebel organization (including the Iranian Baluchis), on June 20 was intended as a deterrent for Iran’s other minorities. Instead, they are more restive than ever. Several Azeri breakaway movements operate in Iranian Azerbaijan in combination with their brethren across the border. Tehran decided a substantial buildup in the province would serve as a timely measure against possible upheavals.
Haaretz news quotes Iranian sources who claim they have seen Israeli aircraft landing and unloading in parts of Saudi Arabia:
A semi-official Iranian news agency reported Wednesday that Israel Air Force helicopters recently landed at a Saudi Arabia airport and unloaded equipment intended for attacking targets in a Muslim state.
This follows last weekend’s reports of an American fleet passing through the Suez Canal, triggering fears that the United States and Israel were preparing for an attack on Iran, with Egypt’s cooperation, the Arabic language newspaper Al-Quds Al-Arabi said.
The Israeli aircraft reportedly landed at Tabuk Airport on June 18 and 19 and that the Saudi airport canceled numerous flights to enable the Israeli aircraft landing, the FARS agency said in an unconfirmed report titled “Suspicious military activity of the Zionist regime in Saudi Arabia.”
The agency quoted a Saudi passenger as saying the aviation authorities canceled a flight scheduled to take off from Tabuk Airport without giving any reason

It's going to be interesting to see how the US deals with this situation now.

Well Israel has been saying for a long time they want to go bomb Iran (which just makes no sense how a rogue state can get away with that) and they've always been spying on them
USA always has some heavy duty carrier in the region... remember they're fighting 2 "wars" there + bombing Pakistans mountains and some African countries
And the Kurds have always been a pain to the countries they reside in (which is in the North West area of Iran) and they've been starting lots of shit lately
sounds like the article is just tying all the stories going on in there into 1 to fool the ignorant

Rumors have been rampant in the past few weeks that Israel and Saudi Arabia are working together to take down Iran. I don't know if this is true, as Iran is always the one reporting this, and of course they could be just making it up, but if there is anyone who hates Iran as much as Israel, it would be the Saudi's.
