Important news from the best democracy in the middle east
Israel, concerned with the growing spread of disease in both Syria and Lebanon, now realizes it must act before Husabekutyun does what Hitler or Hamas have failed to do; wipe Israel and the Jews off the map. Under pains of anti-Semitics going around and trying to declare us imperializing again, Israel announces Operation Zion.
This defensive operation will make sure Israel is completely and totally guarded against both the natural spread of the disease from Syria and Lebanon to Israel, while also making sure no crazy insurgent acquires the weapon and fires it in the middle of Tel Aviv or Jerusalem.
Firstly, Israel announces it is hereby closing its border with Lebanon, effective immediately. The last thing we want is for an infected refugee to cross the border and spread the disease to everyone. Therefore, IDF elements are being set to set up checkpoints on any major road leading out of the country, to immediately stop all traffic and turn it back to where it came.
Secondly, Israel will revisit a total naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. The risk of some crazed terrorist moving biological weapons in on boats outweighs the potential PR disaster this move makes, so we will therefore mobilize the navy. Any and all ships wishing to enter the disputed territory will be stopped by Israeli ships; any contraband biological weapons will be seized and the smugglers will be tried. Then, non-humanitarian ships will be turned around. Attempts to resist will result in being fired upon. We apologize for any inconvenience
Unfortunatly, ships like these are resuming the blockade. Safe seas, however, are important for Israeli safety
Third, Israel will institute a no-fly zone over the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. Once again, we will not fancy the idea of terrorists bringing in biological weapons from the air. Clearly marked humanitarian flights, such as from the UN, MSF, or the Red Cross will be personally escorted by Israeli fighters to their designated location of operations. Otherwise, no planes will be going in or out. We again apologize for any inconvenience
Finally, Israel will suspend any and all flights from nations with significant outbreaks of Husabekutyun. Currently, this will only apply to Syria and Lebanon, but more nations will be added to the list if the disease continues to spread. Also, flights from foreign nations in general will have more thorough inspections for suspected cases of Husabekutyun. Anyone suspected of being infected will be detained and eventually deported. Please, if you suspect you are infected, stay out.
Safe, non-infected airports are paramount for nation security
Thus, Operation Zion is now in effect starting immediately. If any nation has any questions about the provisions, feel free to ask.
