As the rampant speculations that Israel will soon launch a military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities continue, a report on NBC on Friday revealed what such an attack may look like.

The report, the main points of which were presented by Israel’s Channel 10 News, is based on conversations the American network held with current and former officials in Israel and the United States. The report suggests that an attack on Iran will combine air and ground faces but will not include naval forces.

The officials interviewed said that the attack will be led by the Israeli artillery, which will use Jericho 2 missiles that have a range of 2,500 kilometers. The report also says the artillery will be assisted by F-15i aircraft and Israeli unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

The officials also told NBC that the operation will include ground units, but that they will not be involved in the actual attacks, focusing instead on marking targets or collecting intelligence.

Talia Ben-Eliezer, daughter of MK Binyamin Ben-Eliezer (Labor), was released over the weekend after being arrested at an airport in New York late last week for purchasing painkillers without the required documentation.

39-year-old Ben-Eliezer was passing through security at the airport when she was told by the officers that an arrest warrant was issued against her last July for illegal possession of the painkiller Oxycontin.

Ben-Eliezer, an American citizen, was defined in the arrest as a “fugitive.” When she arrived with her mother Dolly Ben-Eliezer at JFK airport to board a Delta Airlines flight to Tel Aviv, the authorities discovered the arrest warrant and took her into custody.

Israel has placed its consulates and embassies around the world on high alert, and has warned Jewish institutions in North America, South America, and Europe, to be on guard – because Iran may be planning terror attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets. The warnings were distributed last week by Israeli security officials over the past week, said ABC News, which published over the weekend what it said was text from several documents sent from Israeli consulates.

"We predict that the threat on our sites around the world will increase … on both our guarded sites and 'soft' sites," onr letter quoted by ABC News said. Another document said that “In the past few weeks, there has been an escalation in threats against Israeli and Jewish targets around the world. pen source has reported many demonstrations against Israel are expected to be concentrated on Israeli embassies and consulates. Such demonstrations have occurred internationally as well as domestically. These demonstrations could potentially turn violent at local synagogues, restaurants, the Israeli Embassy and other Israeli sites. … Law enforcement should be vigilant when making periodic checks at all Jewish facilities.”

A third document said that “here is a possibility that the forged passports will be used in order to pass as Israeli citizens at the security checks in Israel and around the world. Israeli security authorities may consider an Israeli citizenship as a [criterion] to proceed with a more lenient security check in secure sites such as airports, etc.”

Talia Ben-Eliezer, daughter of Labor MK Binyamin Ben-Eliezer, was arrested on Wednesday at the Kennedy Airport in New York as she was making her way back to Israel.

Ben-Eliezer was arrested after airport authorities discovered that an arrest warrant had been issued against her by the State of Florida.

The suspicion is that Talia Ben-Eliezer, who came to the United States for medical treatment, purchased pain relievers without first acquiring the necessary documents.

According to media reports on Thursday evening, the arrest warning against Ben-Eliezer said she is a “fugitive”.

Former CIA director R. James Woolsey spoke to Arutz Sheva on Thursday, on the sidelines of the 12^th Annual Herzliya Conference.

Addressing the security situation in the Middle East in the wake of the Arab Spring, Woolsey said revolutions are usually divided into three phases: The first phase is very enthusiastic, the second phase is when the liberals take over and look like they’re going to move things well, and the third part is what he called the “non-attractive” part.

“We can hope that a number of these Arab revolutions veer off before they get to a most unattractive phase three,” he said. “There’s been a lot of progress away from dictatorship and toward people being able to rule themselves, but it’s far from perfect and there is a lot of uncertainty. We don’t know where these Arab revolutions – really, any of them – are going.”

United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon called upon Israelis to be happy about the Islamist rebellion tearing through the Middle East.

Speaking at the Herzliya Conference Thursday, Ban said:

A top officer in the Israeli Police slammed the Defense Ministry's decision to allow Arab workers to participate in the demolition of buildings in new neighborhoods (“outposts”) conducted by the IDF, police, and Border Guards over the past few months. Last September, Arutz Sheva reported that Arab workers participated in the demolition of Migron. According to witnesses, the Arabs laughed and joked while pulling apart structures, making fun of the Jews who were being “exiled” from the site. The officer criticized the inclusion of Arabs in the demolition and evacuation of Migron, terming it “heartless.”

The officer also criticized the recent late-night eviction of families from Mitzpeh Avichai by Yassam police. The eviction took place in the pre-dawn hours of a very cold night, with residents, including numerous children, roused from their sleep and thrown out into the cold. “I am very sorry that the operation was conducted as it was,” the officer told Arutz Sheva. “You cannot throw families out into the freezing cold in the middle of the night. It's just not right.”

The IDF apparently does not agree. During a press conference after the Mitzpeh Avichai evictions an IDF officer responded to a query by an Arutz Sheva reporter on the timing of the operation by saying that Border Guards had decided to move ahead with the eviction “in order to avoid confrontations with residents and protesters, who would have made the operation more complicated.” By throwing the residents out in the middle of the night, the official said, protesters did not have the opportunity to gather and prevent the evictions.

IDF Intelligence head Aviv Kochavi gave a chilling presentation Thursday morning at the Herzliya Conference on Israeli policy, telling listeners that Israel's enemies had 200,000 rockets and missiles pointed at the country, and could reach all parts of Israel – even the ostensibly safe “center” of Tel Aviv and its suburbs.

Most of the missiles have a range of about 40 kilometers – the range of Qassam and most Katyusha rockets – but thousands of missiles have ranges of hundreds of kilometers, making every location in Israel within their reach. Not only that – but the missiles are more lethal now than ever before. “The warheads on these missiles contain hundreds of kilograms of explosives, not dozens, as in the past. And their firing precision and ability to hit specific targets is also greater,” Kochavi said. The rockets are largely located in Lebanon and Syria, with a smaller amount in Gaza – and in Iran, as well, which has thousands of missiles that could reach Israel. “Every tenth house in Lebanon is now a weapons depot,” Kochavi said.

Besides conventional weapons, Israel is also facing a nuclear threat. According to Kochavi, Israel has lost the battle to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons; Tehran already has enough uranium for four atomic bombs, with over 100 kilos enriched to a level of 20% - more than enough for the one bomb Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said he would need to “rid the world of the Zionist entity.”

An angry crowd hurled shoes and stones at United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's convoy as it entered Hamas-run Gaza on Thursday.

The crowd also struck the vehicles with signs bearing slogans accusing Ban of bias towards Israel, among others. No one was injured in the incident and the convoy simply pushed through the crowd and sped away. Ban is visiting the region to try to jumpstart the long-stalled peace process between Israel and the Palestinian Authority.

His visit comes on the heels of a similar failed visit by European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton who said she feared the "window for talks" was "closing." Both demanded Israel make "goodwill gestures" to the PA and Hamas while making no similar demands on officials in Ramallah and Gaza City.

Israel is the focus of tens of thousands of cyber attacks per week, according to an Internet security expert quoted in a new report on cyber security.

The report quotes Isaac Ben-Israel, senior security adviser to Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who said that cyber security is about "securing different life systems regulated by computers; In Israel, we realized this 10 years ago."

According to Ben-Israel's calculations, Israel is hit with 1,000 cyber-attacks every minute, which he divides into a hierarchy of threats.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has won Tuesday's race for the leadership of the Likud party with an overwhelming 74 percent of support, according to initial results.

Netanyahu’s rival in the race, Moshe Feiglin, garnered 25 percent of votes, according to the initial count.

In a victory speech he made shortly after initial results came in, Netanyahu clarified that the general elections for the Knesset are still a long way off.

In his speech, the Prime Minister thanked the Cabinet ministers for working on behalf of Israel, and also thanked Knesset members, mayors and party activists.

“I thank you all for your confidence and the renewed support you have given me,” Netanyahu said, adding that the Likud is a movement which “is committed to settle in the land of Israel and is committed to the future of Israel.”

Mitt Romney will win the Florida primary, CNN is projecting.

The projection is based on unofficial returns and exit polling that showed Romney with a double-digit lead over his closest challenger, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich.

With 51 percent of the unofficial count, CNN said, Romney had 48 percent of the vote compared to 31 percent for Gingrich, 13 percent for former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum and 7 percent for Texas Rep. Ron Paul.

Exit poll information showed that Romney led in most categories to show his appeal to Republican voters who said their main concern was choosing a candidate who can defeat President Barack Obama in November.

A woman in Samaria was wounded by a rock-throwing terrorist Tuesday in another repeat of the First Intifada tactic to kill Jews.

The woman was treated at the scene for light injuries, and her vehicle and two others sustained damage in the attack on the highway from Yitzhar, on Highway 60 in northern Samaria.

Last week, Palestinian Authority Arabs wounded one person after they erected a roadblock of rocks on a highway, a tactic used in the First Intifada in the early 1990s when motorists were forced to stop their cars to tear down the blockades, which often were booby-trapped.

For those pro-Israel Americans who are still on the fence about which candidate to support in the Republican primaries, this particular American-Israeli would like to briefly scan some of the nuances on the campaign trail.

With the notable exception of Congressman Ron Paul, who has harshly criticized Israel’s treatment of our Hamas-supporting neighbors in Gaza as being “like a concentration camp”, the contenders for the nomination have been considered to be staunchly pro-Israel. All support a strong stand against Iran, including the potential use of military force to end Iran’s race to develop nuclear weapons, but are the candidates really all on the same page on the main issues that concern Israel?

Let’s examine the record. The differences become clear when they discuss “the Palestinians” and the so-called peace process.

A spokesman for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu says Israel will not leave the Jordan Valley, regardless of whatever final status agreement is made with the Palestinian Authority.

Responding to rumors claiming that he was prepared to compromise on an Israeli presence in the region, Netanyahu told a Likud faction meeting Monday evening, “I will sign a final status agreement only if Israel remains in the Jordan Valley. I believe that we are thus acting sensibly, and looking out for the welfare and security of Israel,” he told party MKs.

An earlier, unconfirmed report published in the Hebrew-language Ma'ariv newspaper Monday morning claimed that Netanyahu had agreed to relinquish sovereignty over the Jordan Valley.

In a speech to the Knesset plenum last year at its special Herzl Day session, the Prime Minister laid down five conditions for a peace treaty with the Palestinian Authority – but the Jordan Valley was not listed among the items.
