Israel's "secret" BBF Saudi Arabia has missiles aimed at both "friend" and their known enemy Iran

When will the Israelis  learn that they can never ever trust the enemy and the enemy has always and will always be MUSLIMS of all stripes.  Just because one sect is at odds with the other  at this present point in time does not mean that their common goal...that of destroying Israel... has been done away with.  It's on the back burner for now but won't be for long.

What I would like to know is whether Israel has anything pointing at Mecca.  If  not,  they better start right away.  The situation with Muslims is always at liquid fire temperature. Who would have thought a week ago that the MB would be pariahs in Egypt within a few short days?  Today, Saudi Arabia, UAE and others might be showing a friendly face to the Israelis ... tomorrow they will be plotting to kill them.  That's the nature of the beast and the Israelis better get used to it.  Being nice to your enemies NEVER works.

....Saudi Arabia is targeting Israel and Iran with powerful ballistic missiles,  new satellite photography suggests.
Images analysed by experts at IHS Jane's Intelligence Review have revealed a hitherto undisclosed surface-to-surface missile base deep in the Saudi desert, capable of hitting both countries.

The analysts spotted two launch pads with markings pointing north-west towards Tel Aviv and north-east towards Tehran. They are designed for Saudi Arabia's arsenal of lorry-launched DF3 missiles, which have a range of 1500 to 2500 miles (2400 km to 4023 km) and can carry a two-ton payload.

The base, believed to have been built within the past five years, gives an insight into Saudi strategic thinking at a time of heightened tensions in the Gulf. While Saudi Arabia does not have formal diplomatic relations with Israel, it has long maintained back-channel communications as part of attempts to promote stability in the region.

The two countries also have a mutual enemy in Iran, which has long seen Saudi Arabia as a rival power in the Gulf. Experts fear that if Iran obtains a nuclear weapon, Saudi Arabia would seek to follow suit.
Analysts at IHS Jane's believe that the kingdom is in the process of upgrading its missiles, although even the DF3, which dates back to the Eighties, is potentially big enough to carry a nuclear device.
The missile base, which is at al-Watah, about 125 miles (201 kilometres) south-west of the capital, Riyadh, was discovered during a project by IHS Jane's to update its assessment of Saudi Arabia's military capabilities.....

.........Robert Munks, deputy editor of IHS Jane's Intelligence Review, said: "Our assessment suggests that this base is either partly or fully operational, with the launch pads pointing in the directions of Israel and Iran respectively.

"We cannot be certain that the missiles are pointed specifically at Tel Aviv and Tehran themselves, but if they were to be launched, you would expect them to be targeting major cities.
"We do not want to make too many inferences about the Saudi strategy, but clearly Saudi Arabia does not enjoy good relations with either Iran or Israel."
Officials at the Saudi embassy in London did not respond when contacted by The Daily Telegraph.
The Israeli embassy in London said: "We have no comment on this matter".........
