Israeli Official: Iran, Hizbullah Plotting New Attacks
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Iran and Hizbullah are planning to carry out new anti-Israeli attacks around the world, a senior Israeli security official warned on Friday.
"Iran and Hizbullah are planning more attacks overseas," he told reporters, speaking on condition of anonymity and without giving further details.
Israel has been on high alert following bomb incidents in India, Thailand and Georgia on Monday and Tuesday that officials said were aimed at diplomats from the Jewish state.
Top Israeli officials have openly accused Iran of being responsible and have also implicated Iran's Lebanese ally Hizbullah in several other foiled attempts to harm Israelis in Thailand and Azerbaijan since the start of the year.
Thailand has arrested two Iranians in connection with a series of blasts in Bangkok earlier this week, and police said they are looking for an Iranian woman who is thought to have fled the kingdom.
On Friday, police confirmed they were seeking another Iranian in connection with the explosions. A fourth Iranian linked to the incident was detained in Malaysia.
"Once again, we call on Israelis overseas to be vigilant, to be wary of suspicious objects, not to accept any such objects and to follow the advice of the security services in the countries where they are," he said.
Asked about reports of an alleged Iranian plot to kill Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak in Singapore earlier this week, which were denied by Singaporean and Israeli officials, he said: "We have no information about that."
But he acknowledged that "senior Israeli officials traveling overseas are a prime target."
He also reiterated that Egypt's Sinai Peninsula was still considered to be the "the most exposed place" for Israelis and cautioned against travel there.
He also recommended that Israelis avoid traveling to southern Thailand.

They never stopped in the first place. The terrorists (those are acts of terror) are trying to deflect the current media attention from the Syrian scene but it won't succeed. Over 130 nations condemned the ongoing repression in Syria.

How about the Iranian scientists, who killed them. I guess the italian Mafia. They Iranians are terrorist and Israelis are not. Read your history books. There is a good book written by an Israeli intelligence officer, called 'By way of deception.'

False flag operations by the mossad. Haaretz report today that the mossad chief was in new delhi a few days before the attack... hmm i wonder why. Its not the first time nor last time that the mossad uses false flag operations. This time it has to do with their media war with iran. Killing a random israeli is not the revenge hizbullah is after for mughniyes murder. They want a big shot because they have a reputation to protect when it comes to retaliating to israel. Israel as usual gets impatient and starts boming things on their own because lets face it, the mossad is excellent in PR and making itself look great, but less than mediocre when it comes to their actual work.

Big shots? That's what they wish for! However, that's not what they are getting. Look how far from Israel they have to go in order to target small Israeli reps. If hezbollah was able to get a top commander or a minister, they would have done it already regardless of the consequences of a Jewish retaliation on Lebanon. Because we all know they don't give a damn about Lebanese civilians and interests.

The blind man takes sides, both Iran and Israel are two evils, no one has learned how the Palestinians were/is getting massacred, no one sees how the Iranian leader got into power. Both evils are playing the same game and who pays the price? the Lebanese infrastructure and people.
