    Mowbray will be saying a few no doubt, though Ewood usually offers a larger quiet space for reflecting.

    See the area is becoming warmer!

    President Donald Trump on Monday signed into law a $717 billion defense spending bill that puts China in the crosshairs of a host of new US Navy missiles and tactics.The US Navy will get new, longer-range missiles to outgun China's missiles, which can get clean shots on US ships well before US missiles have them in range.The US used to have missiles for long-range ship-sinking but abandoned them at the end of the Cold War. The new spending bill marks their return — and the return to preparing for fights with big navies.The US Navy also has some new tactics in store for China, hoping to align the region against its aspirations of hegemony.

    Iranian Defense Ministry via Associated Press Iran just unveiled a new short-range ballistic missile on Monday, just a few days after test firing a variant of the missile over the Strait of Hormuz. The Fateh-e Mobin missile is an "agile, radar-evading and tactical missile with pinpoint accuracy," said Iranian Defense Minister Brig. Gen. Amir Hatami. The Fateh-e Mobin, which means "Bright Conqueror," has a range of about 483 to 805 miles.

    Very clever observation! But why not go down to the bookies and put a few hundred on that foresight you have.( its a pity its sharp now but in a few weeks it will be unsure ,no confidence, and start fading fast,we will see this in the Prediction League).
    Iran can hit Israel from a border region but would they? They are having problems with unrest now. ''Rajput folly?'' What would be their cause ? Israel has satelites, radar etc. plus the Arrow 2 missile and can detect if they fire.
    The Arrow is considered one of the most advanced missile defense programs currently in existence. It is the first operational missile defense system specifically designed and built to intercept and destroy ballistic missiles. Arrow 3 operates at greater speeds, greater range and at greater altitudes than Arrow 2, intercepting ballistic missiles during the space-flight portion of their trajectory. According to the chairman of the Israeli Space Agency, Arrow 3 may serve as an anti-satellite weapon, which would make Israel one of the world's few countries capable of shooting down satellites.

    Plus a submarine in the Gulf? Then alone they would not attack whilst they have Syria ,in tatters. Hezbullah with 160 k rockets in Lebanon,they need to build up Hezbullah in Syria with missiles.Then they could in time control the waterway, the Bab-el-Mandeb is a strait located between Yemen on the Arabian Peninsula, and Djibouti and Eritrea in the Horn of Africa. It connects the Red Sea to the Gulf of Aden. That would interfere with israeli shipping. Lets not forget Hamas, another of Iran's proxy's.They too would have to be suplied with misiles and rockets.and a defence system?? So all this not NOW !!!!
