Sputnik: Well That’s Embarrassing: Israel May Be Indirectly Giving Weapons to Iran

Israel has repeatedly expressed its opposition to the Iran nuclear deal, citing fears of an attack. But Tel Aviv may be inadvertently supplying Tehran with its own military technology, thanks to a deal between Tehran and the Chinese government.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been one of the most vocal opponents of the Iran nuclear deal, seeing his nation as a prime target should its nemesis use the lifting of sanctions to develop nuclear weapons.

"They’re going to get hundreds of billions of dollars to fuel their terror and military machine," he told NBC News earlier this month.

Update: Iran orders from China 150 J-10 fighter jets that incorporate Israeli technology -- Debka

WNU Editor: The Israeli tech angle for this story is interesting, but the big story is the sale of 150 jet fighters to Iran.

To source Debka is almost always problematic.

I agree RussInSoCal, but this news is being confirmed from other sources .... but I did not post those links because they were not in English.

Iran publishes book on how to outwit US and destroy Israel

By Amir Taheri


While Secretary of State John Kerry and President Obama do their best to paper over the brutality of the Iranian regime and force through a nuclear agreement, Iran’s religious leader has another issue on his mind: The destruction of Israel.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has published a new book called “Palestine,” a 416-page screed against the Jewish state. A blurb on the back cover credits Khamenei as “The flagbearer of Jihad to liberate Jerusalem.”

A friend sent me a copy from Iran, the only place the book is currently available, though an Arabic translation is promised soon.

Obama administration officials likely hope that no American even hears about it.
‘Reclaiming Muslim lands’

See reference for rest of article.

Anon .... when you were posting your comment I was just finishing a post on Taheri's New York Post column. His post is a definite must read.
