Israelis Get Gas Masks, Shelters in Order – LA Times


With speculation lingering over a possible war with Iran, even battle-hardened Israelis are starting to make contingency plans, Los Angeles Times reported. People expect an avalanche of missile strikes against Israeli cities if the government makes good on its threat to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities.
Government-funded gas mask distribution centers report a doubling of visits in recent weeks. In Tel Aviv, probably a primary target of any possible missile attack, city officials this have designated 60 underground parking garages to serve as emergency shelters, capable of temporarily shielding 800,000 people.
Meanwhile, Danny Avram, owner of Ani Mugan ("I Am Protected"), which builds, renovates and inspects bomb shelters and safe rooms, says he’s doing 2.5 times as much in business. Some are thinking about leaving the country or sending children abroad to avoid missile attacks. (LA Times, 28 August)

  2. One Hitler was enough.......Iran is run by many Hitlers.....Israel is doing what it has to do in order to survive.

    You had better hope that the USA keeps Israel on a short leash if you wish to maintan a military in Iran.....of course Iran can launch missles at women & children......it is what Iran does best.

    Looks like Iran's plans of killing women & children at the London Olympics were stopped....well done to the UK, Israel and USA + other countries of FREE people!

    Only a fool like you would compare Hitler to Iranian leaders. If Iran is really run by many Hitlers, the 9,000 Jews currently residing in Iran would have been finished off long ago.

    Ah, shut up. Israel has done its fair share of dropping cluster bombs on women and children during the 2006 Lebanon War. Mind you, this is the same country that pride itself in not deliberately targeting civilians.

    Looks like you are pulling BS out of thin air since no such incident involving Iran has ever taken place.

  7. I know a few Israeli Jews from Iranian background and I can confirm they are more Iranian loving than some of the so called Iranians that spit nothing but hate all the time.
