A Russian threat to Israel

The Jerusalem Post writes that

Syrian President Bashar Assad has pledged to support Russia in its conflict with Georgia and said that Damascus was ready to consider deploying Russian Iskander missile systems in its territory, in response to the US missile shield in Europe.

Assad made the comments in an interview for Russia's Kommersant newspaper, on the eve of his official visit to Sochi for discussions with Medvedev.
