With Syria engaged in an ugly and ever-worsening civil war, the border with Israel and the huge Israeli-built fence several miles into internationally recognized Syrian territory, remains calm.
But just because nothing is happening doesn’t mean the military can’t scaremonger, with Israeli military officials saying that the calm is “deceptive” and that terror attacks from Syrian rebels or regime are “only a matter of time.”
The terror attacks, which again one must be reminded aren’t actually happening, are being preemptively blamed on Syrian President Bashar Assad, and his criticism of recent Israeli air strikes against his country.
The logic is that Assad’s criticism, and his accusation that Israel is backing the rebels with such attacks, is fueling “anti-Israel aggression” that will lead to attacks at some non-specified point in the future by some non-specified combatant force.
…consider Pre Traumatic Stress Syndrome as Displacement of Guilt…
Or maybe even simpler: it aint when I'm a piece of crap so much as it is when you say so…
only an antisemite would appose being bombed by israel.
There two kind of crazy or stupids in this world.., the real crazy or stupid one do crazy or stupid thing that could be forgiven.., but then there are those crazy and stupids whom are not crazy nor stupid but act and do both the crazy and stupid things…, forgiving it is mor crazy and stpupid then anything…, that's what US and Israel relation is about.., the world power.., as is called.., relation to Israel is as stupid and crazy as it could get…, and that's what Israel wants.., playing with stupids and crazys thinking that is not Israel that is crazy or stupid.., it is these world power.., as is called, whom are stupid and crazy.
Ditz loves referring Israeli nonsense. I wonder why.
The Israelis know who the terrorists will be – but they ain't telling – just like 911
No doubt they will be leading the attacks–duh
I can certainly understand why the world hates Israel so much.
I persist in my belief that Ditz works for Israel. And my post to that effect – pointing out that D delights in repeating Israeli nonsense – has not been allowed. My comment was not off-topic.
Okayyy…. so if Assad is claiming Israel is backing the rebels, exactly WHO is going to retaliate against Israel- Assad himself? And, if Israel were really helping the rebel forces (which I seriously doubt) why hasn't Assad been rolled up and tucked away and the rebels in the catbird seat already?
Israel helping Muslim Jihadis destabilize a neighboring nation makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
It is fairly common knowledge that Israel was quite keen on the nascent Hamas as a means of destabilizing PLO and also fairly common knowledge that US was in bed with Al Qaeda.. Hersh tells us US has climbed back in bed with them (Libya and Syria). It can be indeed claimed that Israeli might wish to aid jihadis. Of course if US was/is in bed with Al Qaeda then Israel gave the go ahead. Why Assad not 'rolled up'? Because Israel doesn't always win ( Israel has more leverage over US than over Syria, hence the bloodshed). Got me?
I was forgetting. You ask 'WHO is going to retaliate against Israel?' Iranian press has been relaying news about Syrian jets entering Israeli airspace, bypassing Israel's radar etc. and dropping leaflets. Lack of MSM coverage not indicative of anything, but perhaps check out Israel's Channel 10 which apparently did report on the matter. Call it virtual retaliation? Perhaps.
