After weeks of rumors, warnings and contradictory information, two Iranian warships crossed the Suez Canal early and already in the waters of the Mediterranean. Despite protests from Israel, the frigate Alvand (the main anti-ship missile arsenal are the C-802) and the supply ship Kharq (capable of carrying over 30,000 tonnes) become the first Iranian warships crossing the strategic Suez since the Islamic revolution in Iran 32 years ago.
A chapter in the psychological war between Iran and Israel or perhaps a sign of the new order in the Middle East, at least in regard to Egypt after the fall of President Hosni Mubarak, considered an ally of the U.S. and Israel against Iran and nuclear program. "Two Iranian ships have entered the Canal at 5.45" officially confirmed to Reuters Suez Egyptian authorities.
The destination is the port of Latkia, Syria, Iran's strategic ally. Iran argues that the only purpose is to practice. While the Israeli army continues the run of the ship for days, Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, Iran sees the step as "serious" and an attempt to expand its influence in the area, "taking advantage of the situation created" (riots in countries Arabs and was postMubarak).
Other members of the government called it a "clear provocation." Nobody in Israel think-a-day the arrival of these two vessels will trigger the dreaded regional war with Iran. First, because this war, mostly underground, began long ago and has multiple scenarios (Gaza, Lebanon ..). The protest Israeli-linked to the concern expressed by the White House is directed mainly against Iran transmitted the message at this time of maximum seizure in the area, sailing near the coast, across to what looked like a canal today and reaching prohibitive Syria to reaffirm their alliance against Israel.
In order to reduce the alarm in the Israeli media, which has helped the Government of Netanyahu, Defense Minister Ehud Barak, said that "it is a challenge but we must analyze it in a proportionate manner and without exaggeration in regard to security. "
