Iran deploys missiles in Persian Gulf

May 12th, 2009

From the Jerusalem Post:

Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have begun deploying mobile launchers for surface-to-air and surface-to-sea missiles in the Strait of Hurmuz and other areas in the Gulf, it has been revealed.

An Iranian official, quoted anonymously in the Saudi daily Al-Watan, said Iranian forces deployed the missile bases following secret reports that the United States and Israel were working on a military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Iran’s preparations for a potential military strike are not new. The republic has conducted several military exercises over the past few years, some with the explicit intention of preparing the armed forces for a possible confrontation with the West.

The source said the missiles were deployed a few weeks ago.

Iran (Ezekiel 38:5) is lining up to join in the Russian-led attack (Ezekiel 38:15) of Arab states (Psalm 83:5) against Israel (Ezekiel 38-39), which occurs 3.5 years after the Antichrist forges a peace contract between Israel and the Arab nations of the Middle East (Daniel 9:27).
