More and more confirmations are coming across the media that the White House not only green lit Israel’s Wednesday attacks on Syria, but that they have offered a blanket approval for future strikes.
The Wednesday attacks targeted several different sites in Syria, and the Syrian government has shown footage of the aftermath of an attack on a military research facility, one which experts claim was regularly visited by Russian military personnel.
The reports on the “weapons convoy” heading to Syria have also been revised, with the latest reports saying the Syrian vehicles with weapons on board were actually parked at a military base in Zabadani, not actually on the road heading to Lebanon.
Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta has become the first administration official to go on record about the attacks, saying that the US “fully backed” Israel in attacking Syria, adding that the US was concerned about possible transfers of anti-aircraft weapons because they might be used against “civilian aircraft.” It is worth noting that the US-backed rebels in Syria have openly talked about attacking civilian planes, but the regime has shown no interest in doing so.
Reports also suggest that in addition to Israeli attacks on Syria, the US is interested in launching attacks of its own, and that it is planning to attack targets around the northern city of Aleppo if the rebels get too close to chemical weapons depots.
Which might not suit Turkey too well. The NATO nation may be cheerfully backing the rebels in Syria’s civil war, but blasted Israel for attacking them, and went on to condemn Syria for not retaliating, with Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu mocking Assad for failing to “even throw a pebble when Israeli jets were flying over his palace.”
Next up : the Swiss….. pow…boom. USrael can villify anyone.
Obama and his administration have no moral core.
Not a single US government official in its history ever has, it's not like Obama has a monopoly on immorality.
US and Zionists going down the tubes together
Obama will support the rebels, no the brutal dictator, wait, who is the leading color revolution, well, let's change with the tide, uh, should we knock off this regime, remember yesterday the brutal dictator was our best kissing friend, uh well let's say genocide was imminent so we slaughtered innocents to prevent/promote the same…..how 'bout a no-fly zone? Hell-iry Klinton Sig Heil! Sticks her tongue in Mubarak's ear one day, the next day he's a brutal dictator, let's finance al-CIAda for regime change. blah, blah ka-ching for the defense industry and jobs for the defense department…..I love Kaddafi, now I hate Kaddafi, more billions for regime change! eeeyahhh! All is a secret, can't admit anything Hooray for the WarState!!!
"the US is interested in launching attacks of its own, and that it is planning to attack targets around the northern city of Aleppo if the rebels get too close to chemical weapons depots."
Of course they are – it's the best excuse Obama has to get the US and NATO involved in a foreign military intervention. Which is precisely the plan contrary to the airheads who still think Obama is "resisting" such intervention.
It was so simple: Just support a bunch of jihadis and when they get close to overthrowing Assad – or seem to since they really aren't – or get close to chemical weapons (which again they really aren't), use that as the excuse to attack Syria – NOT the jihadis at all!
The Israeli attack shows that even now Israel and the US intend to use the insurgents as "cover" for military strikes against Syria and Hizballah in Lebanon. Once the full scale foreign military intervention occurs, Israel will attack Hizballah in Lebanon with a full scale attack.
