Algemeiner: Israeli Officials: Iran Massively Ramping Up Arming of Hezbollah in Preparation for Major Assault on Israel
Senior Israeli officials warned on Monday evening that, over the last few weeks, Iran has considerably stepped up its operations to arm Hezbollah in order to prepare its terrorist proxy for a large-scale conflict with Israel.
According to the officials, cited by Israel’s Channel 2, new intelligence has revealed that Tehran has accelerated its proxy war with Israel on all fronts. Iranian delegations have been arriving in the Gaza Strip, and in recent months, the commander of Iran’s Basij paramilitary volunteer militia spoke of arming the residents of the West Bank to rise up against Israel. Iran has reportedly already begun arming members of Hamas in the West Bank.
WNU Editor: I am skeptical that such a war will break out this year. Iran and Hezbollah are both focused on the wars in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen .... and I do not see how getting into another conflict with Israel will improve their strategic and tactical positions .... if anything .... I can easily see it being degraded by superior Israeli firepower. But .... it appears that Iran is boosting arms shipments to Hezbollah .... Israel: Iran steps up arms shipments to Hezbollah, Hamas (Times of Israel), and Israel in turn is preparing for the worse .... Land berm going up on Lebanon border to thwart Hezbollah (Times of Israel).

"spoke of arming the residents...", " attempting to establish..", " has reportedly already begun...". And of course the obligatory senior intelligence officials. Always trustworthy, those lads.
Gotta call BS on this as more Israeli fearmongering and propaganda to perception manage the Iran bogeyman for the always gullible western audience.
Gullible???? When the so called leaders of Iran threaten Israel every other day on National Tv?? Please stop with the kool-aid. ..Try a Pepsi once in awhile!
