Could this be a prelude to World War III? The very fact whether Iran is supplying long-range missiles or the technology can imply that Iran is testing its weapons capability to launch a full scale attack on Israel. The Iranian government may be using the civilian Palestinians in the Gaza strip as a cover for its real intentions - that is the ultimate destruction of Israel. Hamas hatred towards Jews makes it a perfect cover for Iran using Hamas terrorists do its dirty work for them, deflecting world attention away from Iran to allow it to finish and launch its nuclear weapons technology. Things may get very hot on December 21st - not so much as a mystic date but as a political date to fire its nuclear arsenal into Israel - and later triggering a world wide conflict as one nation aligns with allied nations against others. End result, Hamas and civilians of the Gaza strip will be used as decoys by the Iranians. Peaceful intentions of nuclear technology - not likely.
... and who supplies Israel? Or helps and paid for the Iron Shield? Why is Iran evil for supplying information? The rockets from Gaza started because Israel killed a soccer playing child. Is that terrorism? Lets keep our noses clean and not try to cast fault. Stop the blockade of Gaza!
Israel tries to not hit civilians in its strikes. Hamas randomly fires missiles like WWII V-1's, hoping to hit civilians. That's the difference.
I'm not saying Israel is perfect or, at times, isn't being overly aggressive in its foreign policy. The plight of the Palestinians, some of it at the hands of Israel, is harsh. But in this case, Israel is rightfully defending themselves.
People pick on Israel because they see a stronger bully attacking a much weaker foe. But even a much weaker foe deserves a beatdown if they try to sucker punch you first.
There is a full-court press to try to use the hostilities in Israel and Gaza (started on November 8th when an Israeli soldier in a helicopter gunned down a Palestinian child playing soccer; an act calculated to provoke a response) to justify an attack on Iran. This is just more of the same. There are no missiles being sent from Iran to Gaza. None could get through Israel's blockade and Iran is not stupid enough to send identifiable weapons to Gaza. So the new spin is that Iran "reportedly" (note that this means it is an unfounded rumor) transferred technology.
Yes, this IS news, because, as suspected by Israeli intelligence, this is a confirmation that IRAN is the source of the long range rockets being launched by Hamas from Gaza into Israel. Israel has been returning fire, dozens of people have been killed, and diplomats from multiple countries are converging on the region to try to negotiate a cease fire. At the moment, at least, this story has NOTHING to do with SYRIA.

And Iran is clearly on the right side over this one.

I suspect that will result in reprisals, and they will become a part of the conflict.
