Wednesday, January 21, 2009   Israeli claim: Iran elite forces killed in Gaza War TEL AVIV — Israel's military killed several Iranian military advisers deployed in the Gaza Strip, sources said. The Israeli sources said the military killed an unspecified number of advisers from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps during the 22-day war with Hamas, which ended on Jan. 18. They said the IRGC officers helped the Hamas regime and Islamic Jihad fire BM-21 Grad rockets from urban areas. "We believe there were dozens of IRGC personnel in the Gaza Strip during the war," an Israeli source said. "Some were killed; others went into hiding, and others escaped." The sources said IRGC sent officers to the Gaza Strip to help Hamas improve the range and accuracy of missiles and rockets. IRGC was also authorized to help establish facilities to produce the Grad and other extended-range Katyusha-class rockets in the Gaza Strip. Well now that he's in the Oval office what will the Obama response to Iran be? Another abolishment of the war on terror and the embracing of the enemy? Time will tell and it will not be long in coming.
