The United States Thursday cast doubt on the strength of Iran's claims to have test-fired a whole barrage of missiles over two days, and urged Tehran to cease immediately all provocative acts. Iran appeared to have fired only a single missile on Thursday, not a second round of missiles as Iranian media reported, and seven on Wednesday not nine as claimed, a senior defense official told AFP.

When it comes to anti-Tibet propaganda, the Chinese government never ceases to amaze me. This story is absolutely preposterous.

According to reports, Israel will be outfitting its airliners with defense systems designed to thwart missile attacks. The defense will probably be a system with flares, designed to distract an incoming missile's heat-seeking mechanism. It will be installed first on planes flying to destinations considered dangerous, i.e Africa and parts of Asia. The need for a missile defense system was recognized in 2002, when an Israeli passenger jet was targeted after takeoff by Islamic militants using shoulder-fired missiles outside Mombasa, Kenya. The rockets missed, but spurred Israel to find a way to protect its airliners with a defense similar to that already used by its air force. (The picture does not show an Israeli airliner, anyone reasonably familiar with aircraft can see that, we just wanted

DEBKAfile - Israel requested the hook-up to the BMEWS for early warning to defend itself against Iranian missile attack. Tuesday, April 15, Iran’s deputy C-in-C Mohammad Reza Ashtiani threatened to eliminate Israel from “the scene of the universe” if it launches a military attack on the Islamic state.DEBKAfile’s military sources report the system operates from three global centers – the US Thule Air Base in Greenland, where the 12th Space Warning Squadron is located; the Clear Air Force Station in Alaska and the British RAF long-range radar station at Fylingdales, Yorkshire, in England.This is the third time Israel has been connected to the BMEWS. The first was in 1991 before the first Gulf War and the second in 2003 before the US invasion of Iraq. Then, Israel feared Iraqi missi

Romania: Firefighters have intervened after a farmer from Puieni village was seen using a 122mm missile he dug up in his garden several months ago as an anvil to work scythes and hoes on.Explosive specialists from the army were called in to deal with the missile. They pronounced it still active, saying that if it had detonated the explosion would have endangered his neighbours too. It was destroyed using a controlled explosion."We've had many problems because of these unexploded bombs which have been in the ground since the Second World War but this is really crazy. How can you hit a bomb with the hammer? It could have exploded any time," said a fire department spokesman. Source: www.ananova.com

Israel Matzav - The Times of London has released photographs of a 'secret' long-range missile site southeast of Tehran from which Iran is said to be capable of firing missiles having a range of 6000 kilometers. That would be more than enough to reach Europe.The imagery has pinpointed the facility from where the Iranians launched their Kavoshgar 1 “research rocket” on February 4, claiming that it was in connection with their space programme.Analysis of the photographs taken by the Digital Globe QuickBird satellite four days after the launch has revealed a number of intriguing features that indicate to experts that it is the same site where Iran is focusing its efforts on developing a ballistic missile with a range of about 6,000km (4,000 miles).

When Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld returned to the Pentagon in 2001, he immediately set out to reorganize the nation's missile defense program into a powerful new agency that operated without the kind of oversight normally applied to Pentagon programs. Democrats did not particularly like what Rumsfeld was doing in creating the Missile Defense Agency, but they did not have the political muscle to stop him. And after Sept. 11, the "whatever it takes" mind set that had taken hold in Washington further dampened their ability to challenge the program. For example, Democrats mostly failed in their attempts to reduce the agency's budget, which Republicans fed with tens of billions of dollars on the strength of Rumsfeld's A-vision of a missile system that could defend the country a

Ok, people, time for some serious shit now.The controversial U.S. proposals for a missile defence system partly situated in Europe will be a major subject at the NATO Bucharest Summit in April 2008, NATO Secretary-General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer said Monday.Right now, as I'm typing this, somewhere in the Eastern Europe, more exactly in Bucharest, there is an "historic" Coalition of the Organized Crime (aka Nato) summit. Bush, Merkel, Brown, Zapatero, Putin and all the Motherfuckers are there altogether, discussing lovey dovey stuff like missiles and more innocent people to be butchered in Iraq and Afghanistan.Now, I am strongly against missiles, but I believe today I can make a concession.

U.S. negotiators said Thursday they had made progress in drafting a document with Russian counterparts that could include a deal on the divisive U.S. missile defense plan.The U.S. officials said they hope to complete the document laying out areas of agreement before a meeting between President Bush and Russian President Vladimir Putin scheduled for April 6 in the Black Sea resort city of Sochi. The two days of talks with the Russian delegation began Wednesday.

Stephen Hadley, the White House national security adviser, said Mr Bush made the comments to Mr Hu in a phone call on Wednesday morning. The Pentagon on Tuesday said the US had mistakenly sent electrical fuses for intercontinental ballistic missiles, instead of a consignment of helicopter batteries. Taiwan on Wednesday disputed initial Pentagon claims that it had only informed the US about the mistaken shipment this January. Lisa Chi, a Taiwanese military spokeswoman, said Taipei informed the Pentagon immediately after receiving the shipment in August 2006. "We put the shipment in classified storage and notified our US counterparts immediately," said Ms Chi. A senior Bush administration official on Wednesday confirmed the Taiwanese account, blaming the original discrepancy on "log

Dawn -- An employee of the Indian Embassy in Washington and Indian government agencies conspired with an Indian businessman to obtain secret weapons technology from US companies, the US Justice Department said. The technology they tried to smuggle to India included microprocessors and electronic components used in the development of ballistic missiles, space launch vehicles and fighter jets.The businessman, Parthasarathy Sudarshan, entered a guilty plea in a federal court in Washington, admitting that he was part of the arms conspiracy.The plea suggests that the Indian government violated a ‘pledge’ made in 2004 that it would not try to bypass US export-control laws and regulations imposed after India tested a nuclear weapon in 1998.Documents by the Justice Department showed that Mr Su

Dying Satellite Shot Down 150 Miles Above EarthWatch VideoA U.S. Navy cruiser blasted a disabled spy satellite with a pinpoint missile strike that achieved the main mission of exploding a tank of toxic fuel 130 miles above the Pacific Ocean, defense officials said.Destroying the satellite’s onboard tank of about 1,000 pounds of hydrazine fuel was the primary goal, and a U.S. official told NBC News that it "looks like the tank was hit.""Nearly all of the debris will burn up on re-entry within 24-48 hours and the remaining debris should re-enter within 40 days," it said.The use of the Navy missile amounted to an unprecedented use of components of the Pentagon's missile defense system, designed to shoot down hostile ballistic missiles in flight — not kill satellites.Read Article...

Let the rest of the world tremble at our power!Missle-tmby luvnewsAP:A Navy missile soaring 130 miles above the Pacific smashed a dying and potentially deadly U.S. spy satellite Wednesday and probably destroyed a tank carrying 1,000 pounds of toxic fuel, officials said.Officials had expressed cautious optimism that the missile would hit the satellite, which was the size of a school bus. But they were less certain of hitting the smaller, more problematic fuel tank, whose contents posed what Bush administration officials deemed a potential health hazard to humans if it landed intact.In a statement announcing that the Navy missile struck the satellite, the Pentagon said, "Confirmation that the fuel tank has been fragmented should be available within 24 hours." It made no mention of early indi

Poland today agreed to be host for the controversial US lead Missile Defence System. More talks will be held in the future to finalise negotiations between the USA and Poland.From the initial plans, the biggest opponent to such strategic defence system is Russia, who fears such plans could destabilise the status quo between the two countries.Poland, a close ally with the United States, wants to push forward with this project. The meeting was held in Washington, where the Polish Foreign Minister, Radoslaw Sikorski discussed issues around the interceptor rockets with Condoleezza Rice,the US Secretary of State.Vladimir Putin only recently criticised the move by Poland to allow a US Military base in Poland and Czech Republic and labeled it as a provocative move.It is only a 'principle' agreeme

Good news, office warfare fans - the USB Missile Launcher is back, in a new, flashier wireless version that makes for the strategic siting of remote batteries.Like the wired version, the new launcher is controlled by a little targetting app running on a Windows PC.

Supplier Brando claims dish-to-dish communications can take place at distances of up to 15ft, which the launcher can propel its payload of three foam missiles a further 20ft. Right down the corridor and into the Accounts department, in other words.The software provides full firing control, with elevation and direction ready to be set at the click of a mouse.

Indian Defence research organisation has once again proved why its one of the best in the world with the successful testing of Advanced Air Defence (AAD-02) which is in the same level of Patriot Missile systems of US(PAC-3).ccording to Dr. Saraswat, the AAD-02 was capable of intercepting M-9 and M-11 class of missiles “which are with our adversaries.” The AAD-02 was slightly better than the PAC-3 (Patriot Advanced Capability) of the U.S. in terms of range and altitude. The direct hit compared very well with the PAC-3 in terms of accuracy. Avinash Chander, Director, Advanced Systems’ Laboratory (ASL), Hyderabad, said, “I don’t think any country [other than India] was able to achieve a direct-hit in the first attempt” in endo-atmosphere. “The interceptor crossed the target missile at the correct point. The target missile went into fragments thereafter.” The ASL, a DRDL unit, had contributed significantly to the mission. The AAD-02 was specifically designed and develo

Vladimir Putin must at times feel like he is living in one of his worst nightmares with the former Soviet satellite countries eager to join NATO and offering the US space at former Soviet military bases. Poland and Czechoslovakia are just two of the latest east European countries to woo America for a military presence in their territory. The bases in question would be for anti-ballistic missile hardware ostensibly to guard against Iran. Putin feels it to be a direct threat to Russia’s nuclear forces. And what he sees as possibly an equal threat is being drawn into another cold war style contest of military hardware buildup in the missile and anti-missile fields. And this is a contest he knows he can not successfully compete in. The old Soviet Union managed nuclear parity with the west by virtually bankrupting the rest of the country to pay for it. Putin knows he has nowhere near the resources nor the political clout to do so today. Russia has always had an anti missile shield that at

DEBKA - The Pantsyr-S1E missiles, purchased from Russia to repel air assailants, failed to down the Israeli jets accused of penetrating northern Syrian airspace from the Mediterranean the night before.The new Pantsyr missiles therefore leave Syrian and Iranian airspace vulnerable to hostile intrusion.Western intelligence circles stress that information on Russian missile consignments to Syria or Iran is vital to any US calculation of whether to attack Iran over its nuclear program. They assume that the “absolute jamming immunity” which the Russian manufactures promised for the improved Pantsyr missiles was immobilized by superior electronic capabilities exercised by the jets before they were “forced to leave.”

Georgia - Georgian officials demanded that Russia explain why a pair of Russian fighter jets violated Georgian airspace and fired a missile that landed near a village north of the capital."We have summoned the Russian ambassador and protested the attack against a sovereign country and we do expect a serious explanation and a serious Russian response," said Georgian Foreign Minister Gela Bezhuashvili. According to the minister, Georgian radar and eyewitnesses recorded the aircraft entering Georgian airspace, dropping a 1,000 kilogram (2,200 pound) precision-guided bomb. Authorities said the ordnance landed near the village of Tsitelubani, but did not explode and there were no casualties. Video from the site showed wreckage with Russian writing on it. A senior official in Russia's air force quickly denied the reports. © NewsGirl.OrgTo subscribe (FREE) : HEREView us logon athttp://worldtopnews.blogspot.comRead Business Articles for FreeMalay's Blog Interest In Investment ?Read Before

A number of Israelis from the Tel Aviv vicinity drove south and fired improvised missiles towards Gaza, in an effort to raise awareness of the difficult situation in Sderot. The group used a projectile-launcher built by Yahav Michaeli - a stunts and pyrotechnics expert - to lob organic eggs and vegetables towards Beit Hanoun. “The idea was to draw attention to what’s going on with a little bit of humor, because we thought it could relieve the pressure a little,” said members of the group. “When you wander around Sderot and notice the atmosphere there, you understand that a sort of emotional stagnation has taken hold of the State. That’s why we decided to do what we did,” they said. “We need to shake people up and we thought that this sort of shooting towards Beit Hanoun would be a type of peaceful shooting. IDF sources who heard of the missile launcher hurried worriedly to the launch site. They were greeted by group member Yigal Tzur, who
