1. israeli: maybe Iran is being ok but watch out for Hezbollah
Israeli occupation army Chief of Staff Gabi Ashkenazi said on Tuesday that he believed Western powers would succeed in stymieing Iran's contentious nuclear program, adding that the Islamic Republic was acting "rationally" despite its extremist.
"Alterations in policy towards Iran by the international community as well as efficient pressure could bring change within Iran," the army chief added.
He also warned that Hezbollah is currently armed with tens of thousands of missiles, some of which could reach the southern city of Dimona, Tel Aviv and occupied Jerusalem.

2. briefing by director general Yossi Gal regarding Israeli interception of weapons ship
excerpt:
My friends, one cannot argue with facts. And you have just witnessed hundreds and maybe thousands of them, missiles, explosives, weapons, hand grenades, pieces of ammunition, etc. etc., I believe that you could see today for yourselves just one example of the type of activity that Iran and terrorist elements have been conducting in our region. This is why we have asked you to come for this special briefing.

additional background info on something referenced therein: Sepah
excerpt:
Artesh and Sepah are both a part of Iranian Ministry of Defense but Sepah is the main one (usually guys from Sepah are chosen as minister of defense to be able to control Artesh as well). Iranian government trusts on them more than Artesh and uses them in strategic positions. For example Iranian Airports are secured by Sepah armies not Police forces (like other countries). On the other hand Sepah is the owner of many projects inside Iran. Many roads, buildings, companies, banks and ... are built or managed by Sepah.
