IDF C.O.S. ASHKENAZI IN SECRET MEETING WITH US C.J.C.S. MULLEN AND C.D.S. GEORGELIN OF FRANCE

JPOST:

IDF Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi flew secretly to France on Sunday for meetings with Adm. Michael Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Gen. Jean-Louis Georgelin, the chief of the French Defense Staff.

Ashkenazi left Israel early on Sunday morning and flew to Normandy, where he met with Mullen. The two have developed a close relationship since Ashkenazi was appointed chief of General Staff in 2007 and they reportedly speak at least once a week by phone.

... The meeting in Normandy focused on assessments regarding Iran, Syria, Hizbullah and the joint Israeli-US Juniper Cobra missile defense exercise that is scheduled to start later this month. The exercise will include the Israeli Arrow missile defense system as well as three American systems - the THAAD, Aegis and PAC3 - that will all be deployed in Israel for the duration of the exercise.

I'M SURE THE IMPENDING ATTACK ON IRAN NEVER CAME UP ONCE DURING THEIR DISCUSSIONS.

THIS MEETING COMES 10 DAYS AFTER BIBI'S SECRET MEETING WITH PUTIN.
