HIZBULLAH关上UNIFIL计划由Hana LEVI抢救IAF飞行员朱利安
The Hizbullah terrorist group slammed the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) on Tuesday night August 5, for its intention to rescue any Israel Air Force pilot whose aircraft is shot down over Lebanon.According to a report published by the Lebanese daily newspaper al-Akhbar, UN forces Commander Claudio Graziano distributed to his troops a contingency plan in which UNIFIL soldiers would aim to reach the pilot before the terrorists could get to him. Failing that, if the pilot is captured by guerrilla forces, Plan B is an attempt to rescue him from Hizbullah’s hands. However, if the pilot is being held by the Lebanese Army, according to the plan, UNIFIL would do nothing.

ISRAEL CAN SHOOT DOWN DOZENS OF MISSILE SIMULTANEOUSLY : - Yuval Azoulay (Ha’aretz)
On Tuesday August 5, the Israel Air Force unveiled Sniper, a system developed by three Israeli companies that identifies a target, whether missile or plane, while it is still hundreds of kilometers from Israel, enabling it to be struck with missiles. The IAF stressed that this system is currently reserved for Israel’s exclusive use; U.S. Patriot batteries elsewhere in the world are not equipped with Sniper. A senior officer said the first Sniper units were deployed about a month ago, and more will be deployed in the future. He added that Israel now has the ability to bring down dozens of missiles simultaneously, and to select which missiles to target based on each missile’s projected landing site. The system includes two cameras with night-vision capability that allows one to identify and track aircraft-or a missile-flying at top speeds hundreds of kilometers away.

ARROW THREE UPDATED : IRON DOME AND DAVID’S SLING ON THE WAY :
An upgraded version of the Arrow system, the Arrow-3, is currently in development; the system would stop missiles at a high altitude, and at a distance far from the civilian population. It is expected to make its debut sometime in the next six or seven years. The new system, in its initial development stages, should be able to intercept missiles at heights of more than 100 km., reducing the danger of having the warhead land in Israel after interception. (Ynet News) Also on Tuesday, the IAF unveiled prototypes of the missiles that will be used in two anti-missile systems that are expected to start operating by 2010 - the Iron Dome and David’s Sling. The Iron Dome, being developed by Rafael Military Industries Ltd., has successfully passed its repeated tests over the past several months, with all systems deemed “Go.” The IDF is currently in the process of determining who will staff the Iron Dome batteries, designed to intercept short-range rockets, when operational. By 2012-2013, David’s Sling is expected to join the Iron Dome in protecting Israel’s skies. The system is designed to intercept medium-range rockets, like the Katyushas that struck the port city of Ashkelon earlier this year.

Israel has warned Syria that it would not accept the establishment of an advanced anti-aircraft system in Lebanon; should it be set up, Israel will not hesitate to act against it. (Ynet News)

POLITICAL SUICIDE, PALESTINIAN STYLE : - Rami G. Khouri
As Fatah and Hamas battle it out like a bunch of armed neighborhood gangs, it will not be surprising to see some friends of Palestine quietly walk away, mumbling that if the Palestinians wish to kill each other and destroy their own society, they are free to do so. This is the latest and most troubling example of how a once grand and noble Palestinian national liberation movement has allowed itself to degenerate into ineptitude. The sight of clan-based political groups in Gaza killing each other is familiar in many parts of the Middle East, sadly. It is a sign that national dysfunctionality expressed in internecine political violence is a regional Arab ailment, not a peculiarly Palestinian one. (Daily Star-Lebanon)

Top Syrian presidential aide Brigadier-General Mohammed Suleiman, assassinated at the beginning of this month, (August) reportedly supplied Hizbullah terrorists with the advanced SA-8 anti-aircraft missile system, according to The Times of London. That all ended when he was quietly killed at dawn on August 2 by a single bullet to the head as he sat in the garden of his summer home near the port city of Tartus in the north. Writing in The Sunday Times, journalist Uzi Mahnaimi noted, “Nobody heard the shot, which appears to have been fired from a speedboat by a sniper, possibly equipped with a silencer. The expertise required to execute such a long-distance sniper murder has led suspicion to fall upon the Israelis.”

GEORGIAN JEWS FLEE FROM RUSSIAN BORDER AHEAD OF RUSSIAN INVASION : by Gil Ronen
Most Jews living near the Georgia-Russia border have fled a Russian invasion , in which at least 1500 people were killed initially. Most of the Jewish community in Gori, an area near the conflict zone, have left for the capital Tbilisi. There are said to be some 200 Jews in Gori. The Jews there are one of the oldest communities in Georgia, tracing their migration into the country during the Babylonian captivity in the 6th century BCE. The fighting began when Georgian forces tried to retake the capital of the South Ossetia, a pro-Russian region that won de facto autonomy from Georgia in the early 1990s.
