Update: Syrian media reports the Damascus airport came back into service at 9:00 am Damascus time
Israel launched more missile strikes on Syria early Monday, targeting the Damascus International Airport and putting it out of service as Israeli strikes against Syrian airports have become more frequent.
According to the Syrian military, the missile strikes killed two Syrian soldiers, wounded two more, and caused material damage in a nearby location. Israel rarely comments on its operations in Syria and has not acknowledged the strikes.
Israel frames its strikes in Syria as operations against Iran and Hezbollah, but they often kill Syrian soldiers and damage civilian infrastructure. Monday’s attacks marked the second time in seven months that Israel put the Damascus airport out of commission.
The UN said that Israel’s airstrikes on the Damascus airport last June halted the delivery of aid flights into Syria for two weeks. Israel has also recently targeted the Aleppo International Airport. The airport was targeted multiple times in September and had to be shut down for a few days as a result.
Isn’t Syria ruined enough as it is? Our peace loving Israeli friends are bombing its last remaining civilian airport because WHY NOT.
Don’t the Syrians know they’re living on someone else’s land, Greater Israel, from the Nile to the Euphrates?
As you know very well,there is no “Greater Israel”. As you may not like,Israel in the land for the Israelis.
Israel is a settler colony where the majority of the people are second class citizens or living without rights under military occupation or siege or refugees expelled from their homeland.
Israeli Arabs are full citizens. They certainly have more rights than the Jews living in the Arab lands ever did.As far as “settlers” go, most of the citizens in Israel are born in Israel, and that is their home.Get over it.
Is that why Israeli Arabs are not allowed to become Prime Minster?
prove it
What about the Palestinians?…. My bad… They do not matter to the Israelis.
I decided to block this Jake. He has nothing to say of any value.
Oh Lordy, Bear, I blocked that fool months ago. Common consensus is that he’s a paid hasbara troll.
Apparently, Amerikkka, Ukrainazia and Israhell are the world’s only nations that are allowed to perform indiscriminate air strikes without consequences. The planet would be better off if none of them existed.
As if YOU do.
Who is the person you were replying to Donna?
Are there times when the Israelis could have treated their neighbors better-certainly.However, many millions of Palestinians are now living in Israel as full citizens.
“Are there times when the Israelis could have treated their neighbors better-certainly”
Thanks, I was wondering whether I should be taking anything you write seriously. Bye.
HAHAHA
I’m not overly optimistic, but I am hoping that Israel reaps the whirlwind it so richly deserves.
Cutting off arms shipments from Iran to Hezbollah terrorists-whats wrong with that?
Nothing, so long as we cut off money and arms shipments to Israel as well
Only,Israel is fighting Hezbollah; the US is not fighting Israel. simple enough for you.
Too simple for you, obviously 😉
Sorry, but in this forum we expect people to explain themselves.
Hezbollah in Sytia? I thought they were in Lebanon. Before anything can be done about such acts of modern vandalism — the level of global disguist has to be high enough.
Obviously, both Syrians or Hezbollah are transfering weapons from Syria into Lebanon
Well, were Israel to act like something other than a cosmic Sheißhole, and Palestinians weren’t being kept in a one+ million prisoner open air prison, but rather were given a fair acreage of their land back, Hezbollah would be able to sit back and relax, and Iran wouldn’t have to ship arms to the prisoners via Hezbollah.
See how that works?
You might want to look for your history at something besides Mr Peabody’s improbable History on the Rocky and Bullwinkle show.
It can’t happen soon enough for me.
That won’t happen until we are all hell in a hand basket.
Well, of course 😉
It will, Bear, considering the new government. Bezalel Smotrich—-ugly name, ugly soul. He incites violence against the indigenous Palestinian people and worships certain individuals who have committed mass murders of Palestinians. Ben Gvir—-equally horrible. The rest of the world (Amerikkka excepted of course) will soon enough be sick and tired of the murderous apartheid IsraHelli regime.
It’s too blinded by hatred to realize that they’re cutting their own throats.
FVCK ISRAHELL
VIVA PALESTINE
Viva Palestine!
I would like for everyone to have their own country but Israel seems to always know how to stir the sh-tstorm…
‘Cause they happen to live an a bad area of the world and are not going to lie down and take it anymore.
Since when have they been “taking” it? The only thing Israel takes is Palestinian land.
Check world history for the past 2,000 years,Check how the Arab world treated its Jewish populations.
Birobidzhan was given to them for free, but they chose conflict and tyranny instead.
I don’t know if anyone has noticed but there are only three major countries waging war on other Nations,old reliable USA,Israel and Saudi Arabia.
Duh-haven’t you heard about the war in the Ukraine?
That’s right! All the 30 NATO countries – plus Ukraine – are waging war on Russia!
And they’re losing, spectacularly.
Smile, we’re witnessing the end of the Neocon Empire of Lies.
Everyone is loosing,save for weapons merchants. Russia has lost fac,military prestige and lives,Ukraine is a wasteland.
And the world notices, not Crickets……………………………..
Wake me up, before we go go.
WHAM
Sometimes I think it would have been best for Israel to have their own planet. No, that doesn’t work either, then we would have Interstellar war-fare. I think we need to be considering multidimensionalism.
String Theory suggests that there are at least eleven dimensions, most of which we don’t know squat about. That’s why I’m with Socrates when it comes to religion, “I know that I know nothing.”
Human suffering is legn, wait for it, dary. Legendary.
I think these are practice runs to strike Iran…
Haman will get his just deserts.
