Israel’s July 5 attack on the Syrian coastal base of Latakia has yet to be openly acknowledged by the Israeli government, but was outed by unknown sources within the Obama Administration.
According to new reports, the attack wasn’t particularly successful, and didn’t destroy nearly all the stuff Israel was hoping to destroy. That has led to a belief that Israel will likely launch additional attacks.
Or at least, they want to. The wildcard in all of this is that acknowledgement of the attack by US officials, which some say may amount to a de facto warning that the administration isn’t prepared to endorse additional strikes.
That’s only a theory, of course. The Obama Administration has been on board with previous attacks unconditionally, and they clearly don’t care about Israel precipitating a war with Syria. The only conceivable concern is Russia’s support for Syria, and the Russian promises to send anti-aircraft missiles to Syria to defend against future attacks. That promise led to Israeli threats to sink Russian military ships, which could be a much bigger war than the US is prepared to go along with.
Obama has never been restrained from waging war as long as he could not be found out or blamed for it, and you gotta believe that Israeli attacks and sabotage in Syria did not happen without his endorsement.
The Zionist goal is to get the US involved they really don't give a damm about anyone lives least the American ones.
the zio regime is running on fumes as sooner than later …others in that area will be able to defend themselves against those bunch of bastards
"Unclear if US will indorse strike", the weapons that are given to Israel can be traced and tracked by this or that usa military "secret" stations around the world, like NSA, if us is not encouraging the Israel act they will indorse it when time is right.
What Israel is doing, and us government encouraging it is prolonging this war as much as they can, by Israel attacking Syrian weapon depot is just for that purpose, by not supplying the barbarians called "rebels" the kind and amount of weapons they are asking for is another.
Israel attacking Russian military ships would in all likelihood start a nuclear war.
No, it won't be pushed that far. The reason is that whoever fires the first strike, at whatever target, within hours Israel will be vaporized and as many Jews killed as died in the Holocaust. They know that. They are the aggressor in question, and they just won't do that.
Israel is not going to attack Russian ships. They're not that stupid or that crazy.
Because it doesn't matter. The game plan remains for the US and NATO and Israel to attack Syria, probably by end of this year. They're just trying to gin up a decent excuse since the "chemical weapons" thing hasn't panned out as well as they hoped. No weapons deliveries from Russia are going to change the outcome of that event.
But they have no choice about this. Their strategic requirement to get an Iran war requires Syria and Hizballah be degraded as effective actors in such a war. This is the entire purpose of the Syrian insurgency. Therefore nothing has changed. The overall goal is still to attack Syria – to enable Israel to attack Hizballah via the Bekaa Valley – as soon as the conditions are right.
People need to stop interpreting every little news event week to week as meaning the whole situation has changed. Nothing has changed. Nothing will change.
