Rev Guards Base Uncovered in Syria

And so, there we have it. Iranian Terror Troops right smack dab where Iran has said they weren't. Imagine that. Now, why would they be there? Did they have to travel through Iraq or Saudi Arabia or even Turkey to get there? Or perhaps they merely flew over?

From the Reform Party of Syria

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), an Iranian terrorist organization, is managing a new training base near the city of Homs located west of Syria and less than 50 km from Lebanon. The base is off-limit but intelligence delivered to RPS indicate that there is no Syrian presence at the base, which makes it a fully operational foreign base and the first of its kind in the country.

It is believed that the base is armed with the second generation of the Shahab-3 medium-range ballistic missiles (MRBM) with a range of 2,100km able to hit major metropolis in the Middle East including Israel.

I wonder what the response will be from Iran and/or Syria.

Over at NewsSlobbers: (apparently, this group has their heads stuffed up a Leftinistra's arse)

The reason Ledeen trusts them is because they are a construct of the neocons, in their entirety. The leader of the RPS is Farid Ghadry. He came up on my radar back in April because he was being cited (at NRO) as a source for reports that Nancy Pelosi's "meddling" in Israeli/Syrian diplomacy at Israel's request had "damaged the dissident movement in Syria". Gadry's SourceWatch entry is long, but here are the highlights:

Click, read and shake your head in viral and pathetic disgust. It is apparent that NewsSlobbers doesn't know about the Logan Act and how the wanna-be President One Day SoH Pelosi screwed up the unapproved of and unqualified to go mission so badly, it got the government of Israel pretty much in a tizzy.

NewsSlobbers also doesn't know that the CONgress voted on "confronting Iran on its proxy attacks on U.S. troops in Iraq".

And just fore the hell of it, let's give the apologist hacks of the Leftinistra something else to whine and gyrate about:

The Pentagon has formulated a "three-day blitz" plan to annihilate Iran's military that targets 1,200 sites, including Tehran's nuclear facilities, in order to render its military incapable of conducting offensive, defensive or retaliatory missions.

According to the London Sunday Times, citing Alexis Debat, director of terrorism and national security at the Nixon Center, the Pentagon has rejected a strategy of "pinprick strikes" against Iran's nuclear facilities.

"They're about taking out the entire Iranian military," Debat said.

Perhaps the Iranian leadership is upset over Lebanon zapping their pets inside of Lebanon?
