Israeli warplanes have attacked Syria on Sunday, with multiple bombing sorties against the Damascus International Airport damaging several unspecified facilities.
In addition to the airport, the Israeli planes also attacked the town of Dimas, near the Lebanese border. Reportedly military installations were hit on the outskirts of Dimas.
Syrian Army officials blasted the attacks as “direct aggression,” and it is unclear what exactly was hit. There has also been no report yet on the casualties from either attack, though locals reported hearing multiple explosions.
Israel rarely comments on their attacks against Syria, though such attacks are not uncommon. In the past, they’ve reported attacks were aimed at weapons smuggling to Hezbollah.
As usual, still trying to get that Syria war started by tempting Syria to strike back, thus justifying a US attack on Syria. Nothing has changed. The goal remains a war with Syria to enable Israel to attack Lebanon through the Bekaa Valley.
And as usual, where is that vaunted Syrian air-defense system everyone always brings up? Israel appears to be able to hit anything they want without so much as a peep out of it. Even if Assad wants to avoid retaliation, you'd think the air defense would at least put up a "token defense."
Israel, ISIS & the USA, partners!
With Iranian planes operating in Iraq, perhaps a good thing might be for Israeli jets to taste a bit of Iranian steel over Syria next time they feel moved to this kind of aggression. And if not Iranian steel, perhaps Russian steel.
Air support for ISIS and Al Nusra
Well then Syria do something about it; stop talking about it. This is the 8th time I believe that Israel has committed an act of aggression on your country, which is a war crime. By the rules of war you have every right to return the favor.
Overt act of war? I believe so.
Acts of war indeed. And not a single voice of condemnation, let alone consequences.
What do you expect: common sense and justice? Don't be naive.
Israel has been trying to commit genocide against the Palestinians for years and after their most recent effort, our Government has sent these murdering terrorists another supply of 3000 "smart bombs", so they can try again. And, as usual, the world stands by and does absolutely nothing……!!!
Our Government has been hijacked by the fanatical Israeli neocons and our electorate is still asleep.
It would be great if someone would blast the beejezzzus out of the so called "Jewish" state.. That, I could applaud. But then , they'd just whip out the old sympathy card again, and again.
Oh, maybe that will cause Russia to drop a couple of 500 pounders on Tel Aviv?
Could you just imagine?
Naww, just kiddin.
I wish.But only wishful thinking
Israel is a mad dog running amok.Who will kill it,that is the question
The purpose of this attack? Relieve the itching of Israeli pilots!! I always wondered who or which force is behind ISIS! Who is the beneficiary of this Israeli attack? Certainly not the besieged Christians of Syria or Iraq
Heard on Ryan Dawson's WRH-subbing (last week of November, specifically http://www.ancreport.com/podcast/wrh-show-nov-24/ ) that the Congressmen who read The Twenty Eight Pages (that is, the 28 redacted pages in the congressional report on 911) also voted 'no' on aid to Israel. Write your congress critters telling them to read it…'they can do it over lunch.'
Should cast some light on why they're acting as Terrorists' Air Force…
Isn't their most current stated position on Syria that they'd rather see no outcome? –that it's good for them that it just drag on forever? Well, so an Israeli terrorist attack here and there will probably be about 'rebalancing' things.
Anyone else believe ISIS was created to weaken Syria?
Trading war materials for oil — Did you ever see such strange goings on?
Now why can’t our good going alternate media get their act together and give us a damage assessment after each bombing run? Otherwise we will never have any idea what our Empire is up to, for there is a new report today claiming that Mossad, the Israel spy agency, is training troops for the Islamic State.
For it matters not to our Empire who is destroying the Middle-East, just so long as they use our bombs to do it.
Syria has long-range missles that can reach Tel-Aviv. Why not use them? If the fascist zionist regime retaliates with their nuclear weapons, they will lose the support of more than 180 nations.
