Εκτοξευτήρας πυραύλων της σειράς Palmahim |
Ενώ ο συριακός χειμώνας συσκοτίζει τη συνολική εικόνα στη Μέση Ανατολή (ελάχιστη σημασία δόθηκε για την θανατική ποινή που απαιτείται για τον Μουμπάρακ), τι συμβαίνει πίσω από τη σκηνή; Γιατί αν «αυτοί που μιλούν περισσότερο κάνουν το λιγότερο», που είναι μια παροιμία γνωστή από όλους, το αντίθετο γεγονός να μη μιλήσεις φαίνεται να αποδείξει ότι κάτι στρατηγικά σημαντικό λαμβάνει χώρα τώρα.
Περισσότερο από ποτέ το Ισραήλ φοβάται για την επιβίωσή του. Η αραβική άνοιξη κακομεταχειρίζεται την ειρήνη με την Αίγυπτο, οι Παλαιστίνιοι εξακολουθούν να αρνούνται να αναγνωρίσουν την ύπαρξη του εβραϊκού κράτους, η Ιορδανία βρίσκεται σε τεντωμένη κατάσταση (οι Βεδουίνοι δεν θέλουν πια τους Παλαιστίνιους), ο Λίβανος ζει μια εύθραυστη ηρεμία υπο την κυριαρχία της Χεζμπολάχ ... Μένουν η Συρία και το Ιράν.
Εκεί μπαίνουν στο παιγνίδι οι πληροφορίες μας από πηγές «ιδιαίτερα αξιόπιστες». Σύμφωνα με τους ειδικούς και σημαντικούς παράγοντες της περιοχής, «αρκετές χιλιάδες αμερικανικά στρατεύματα φτάνουν αθόρυβα στο Ισραήλ». Θα «διανέμονταν σε διάφορες βάσεις στην περιοχή της Be'er Sheva και του Τελ Αβίβ».
Οι πηγές μας υποστηρίζουν επίσης ότι «περισσότεροι από 12.000 Αμερικανούς πεζοναύτες αναπτύσσονται στον Περσικό Κόλπο. Εκατοντάδες στρατιώτες προσπαθούν να εξασφαλίσουν τη Σαουδική Αραβία».
Οι πηγές μας προσθέτουν ότι «εγκατασταίνεται μια κοινή ισραηλινο-αμερικανική διοίκηση στη αμερικανική βάση Patch Barracks στη Στουτγάρδη της Γερμανίας». Μια βάση γνωστή από τα παγκόσμια επιτελεία ως έδρα της διοίκησης των αμερικανικών στρατευμάτων στην Ευρώπη. Μία από τις πηγές μας πρόσθεσε ότι είναι «η πρώτη φορά που Ισραηλινοί στρατιώτες σταθμεύουν στην Γερμανία».
Άλλες πληροφορίες από τρίτη πηγή, και αυτή εξαιρετικά αξιόπιστη: «Δεκάδες Γάλλοι και Αμερικανοί μηχανικοί έφτασαν στο Ισραήλ τις τελευταίες εβδομάδες».
Φαίνεται ότι η διακριτική αποστολή τους τοποθετείται κυρίως στη βάση εκτόξευσης πυραύλων Palmahim. Σύμφωνα με τις πληροφορίες μας, «αυτοί οι μηχανικοί εστάλησαν από τις εταιρείες Boeing, Lockheed Martin Space Systems, BAE Systems, Dassault, Caterpillar Inc., Thales και EADS».
Οι τρεις πηγές μας, η μια δεν γνωρίζει τις άλλες, βρίσκονται στις Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες και το Ισραήλ. Όλοι πιστεύουν ότι δρομολογούνται «μεγάλες προετοιμασίες» σε όλη τη Μέση Ανατολή.
Δεν γνωρίζουμε περισσότερα για την ώρα.

Thousands of US troops land in Israel. Aircraft carrier coming soon
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report January 6, 2012, 6:41 PM (GMT+02:00)
The incoming American soldiers are officially categorized as participants in Austere Challenge 12, the biggest joint US-Israeli war game ever held.
The maneuver was originally designated Juniper Stallion 2012. However, the altered name plus the comment heard from the exercise's commander, US Third Air Force Lt. Gen. Frank Gorenc, during his visit two weeks ago, that the coming event is more a "deployment" than an "exercise," confirmed that Washington has expanded its mission. The joint force will now be in place ready for a decision to attack Iran's nuclear installations or any war emergency.
Our sources disclose that it was decided at the last minute in Washington and Jerusalem to announce the forthcoming Austere Challenge 12 on Thursday night, Jan. 5, ahead of the bulletin released by Tehran about another Iranian naval exercise at the Strait of Hormuz to take place in February, although its 10-day drill in the same arena only ended Monday, Jan. 2.
The early release was decided in consultations among US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak and the two army chiefs, US Gen. Martin Dempsey and Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz.
British Defense Minister Phillip Hammond, on a visit to Washington, was brought into the discussion.
The handout circulated to US correspondents from Hammond's talks in the US capital affirmed that Britain stands ready to strike Iran if the Strait of Hormuz is closed.
However, that phrase was omitted from the British minister's remarks at a news conference, following a last-minute request from Panetta, signifying the Obama administration's interest of keeping a low profile on plans for attacking Iran.
Tehran too is walking a taut tightrope. It is staging military's maneuvers every few days to assuring the Iranian people that its leaders are fully prepared to defend the country against an American or Israeli strike on its national nuclear program. By this stratagem, Iran's ground, sea and air forces are maintained constantly at top war readiness to thwart any surprise attack.
The joint US-Israeli drill will test multiple Israeli and US air defense systems against incoming missiles and rockets, according to the official communiqué.
DEBKAfile's military sources add that they will also practice intercepting missiles and rockets coming in from Syria, Hizballah in Lebanon and Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
It will not be the first time a US aircraft carrier docks in Israel for joint operations with the Israeli Air Force. On June 9, 2010, the USS Truman dropped anchor opposite Israel to test a joint deployment against Iran and its allies. The carrier and its air and naval strike force then staged joint firing practices with the Israeli Air Force over the Negev in the South.
Washington and Jerusalem are doing their utmost to present a perfectly synchronized military front against Iran: American officers are stationed at IDF command centers and Israeli officers posted at the US European Command-EUCOM. At the same time, DEBKAfile's military sources disclose that full consensus has not been reached on every last particular of shared operation against Iran, should one go forward.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report January 6, 2012, 6:41 PM (GMT+02:00)
Thousands of US troops began descending on Israel this week. Senior US military sources toldDEBKAfile Friday, Jan. 6 that many would be staying up to the end of the year as part of the US-IDF deployment in readiness for a military engagement with Iran and its possible escalation into a regional conflict. They will be joined by a US aircraft carrier. The warplanes on its decks will fly missions with Israeli Air Force jets. The 9,000 US servicemen gathering in Israel in the coming weeks are mostly airmen, missile interceptor teams, marines, seamen, technicians and intelligence officers.

ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήIran, Russia Replace Dollar with National Currencies in Trade Exchanges
TEHRAN (FNA)- Iran and Russia have replaced US Dollar with their own currencies in their trade ties, a senior Iranian diplomat announced on Saturday.Speaking to FNA, Tehran's Ambassador to Moscow Seyed Reza Sajjadi said that the proposal for replacing US Dollar with Ruble and Rial was raised by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev in a meeting with his Iranian counterpart Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Astana on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) meeting. "Since then, we have acted on this basis and a part of our interactions is done in Ruble now," Sajjadi stated, adding that many Iranian traders are using Ruble for their trade deals. "There is a similar interest in the Russian side," the envoy stated, adding that that Moscow is against unilateral sanctions on Iran outside the UN Security Council, specially the recent sanctions against Iran's Central Bank (CBI). "The move (imposing sanction on the CBI) is unacceptable. Russians have clearly announced that they will not accept these sanctions and Iran's nuclear issue is resolvable just through negotiations." Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad hit back at the US after Washington introduced new sanctions against Iran's central bank. President Ahmadinejad told an annual meeting of senior central bank officials that Iran's central bank would respond with "force" to the new US sanctions intended to pressure Tehran to abandon its nuclear program. He said the bank was strong enough to defeat "enemy plans". The sanctions - which cut off from the US financial system foreign firms that do business with the central bank - are part of a defense bill signed by President Barack Obama earlier this month The extra US sanctions aim to squeeze Iran's oil sales, most of which are processed by the central bank, although many even in the West believe that the move would prove futile. During the last two years, Iran has been replacing dollar with other currencies in its trade with the outside world. Iran has replaced dollar in its oil trade with India, China and Japan. Late in November, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) issued the needed permission to the Central Bank of Iran to open rupee accounts with two Indian banks, namely UCO and IDBI, as a long-lasting solution to the two countries' payment problems. Both accounts were opened in the respective banks' Mumbai branches. A top official of city-based UCO Bank said while payments for his country's oil imports would initially be in rupees, it would be then converted into a separate currency, which was yet to be decided by the apex bank.
