Hezbollah and Hamas are just some of the challenges Israel could face in the coming year of 2012. With Iran continuing what appears to be an unstoppable race towards obtaining nuclear weapons, 2012 appears to be turning into the year which might be the last chance to stop the Ayatollahs from obtaining the bomb.
真主黨和哈馬斯只是以色列在來年2012年可能要面臨的挑戰，有伊朗繼續看似是不可能阻擋的競賽朝向獲得核武，2012年似乎轉變為一年，可能是最後的機會來停止阿亞圖拉獲得核彈。
Hezbollah, Israel believes, has obtained 50,000 rockets and missiles of various sizes and ranges that encompass the entire State of Israel and could be fired in a future war. This is in comparison to the 15,000 rockets it had just five years ago during the Second Lebanon War in 2006.
以色列認為真主黨已取得了50,000枝火箭和不同大小和射程的導彈，包圍整個以色列國並可能在未來戰爭中發射。這相比五年前在2006年第二次黎巴嫩戰爭的期間，它僅有15,000枝火箭。
With predictions that Syrian President Bashar Assad's days are numbered, concern is growing in Israel over the possibility that in the twilight days of his regime, Assad will attack Israel, possibly with his long-range Scud missiles.
有預測敘利亞總統巴沙爾阿薩德的日子已在倒數中，在以色列關注正在增加，對可能性在他的政權的暮日，阿薩德將可能用他的遠程“飛毛腿”導彈襲擊以色列。
And then there is the uncertainty surrounding the future of the Middle East – the American pullout from Iraq, the future withdrawal from Afghanistan, the revolution in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya - all of which can impact Israel’s security.
而再有就是圍繞中東未來的不確定性 - 美國從伊拉克撤軍，未來從阿富汗撤出，在埃及、突尼斯和利比亞的革命 - 所有這些都能影響以色列的安全。
It is under this climate that The Jerusalem Post will be holding its first conference in New York on April 29, 2012.
正是在這種氣候下，“耶路撒冷郵報”將在2012年4月29日於紐約舉行第一次會議。
As the paper’s military correspondent and defense analyst, I strongly recommend that you attend the conference and come hear from Israeli leaders and some of our leading analysts and reporters.

2012 is shaping up into one of the most important years in Israel’s existence. Come be a part of it.
2012年正在被塑造成以色列存在的最重要年份之一，來成為它的一部分吧。
