For the fifth time in the past two weeks, Israel has carried out a missile strike against military targets inside Syria. This time, the attack was in Aleppo Province, with a research center and military barracks.
The attacks were said to have gone after buildings around defense factories which officials had at one point suggested were “Iran-linked.” The amount of damage done is not clear, as Syria reported air defense intercepted much of the incoming missile fire.
Israel refused to comment on the matter, which is roughly the way most Israeli attacks have gone. Israeli officials have rarely admitted to attacks, but have said they won’t stop. Analysts speculated that the increased Israeli attacks are because they will get less international attention during the coronavirus pandemic.
Syria has been emphasizing the number of strikes intercepted, and that very little damage is done. Syrian state media tends to report more damage than the Syrian Army, though both emphasize missile defense capabilities.
Israeli war mongers are strong enough to stand alone against the world.
Shun people like that.
They do not stand alone. They are backed to the hilt by the murderers in the USA who give them billions of dollars for weapons to use on defenceless people.
My point exactly. Israeli war mongers are adults now and should be fledged if they won’t be so on their own .
Israel has been under attack since day one. Neighbors have attacked again & again & still refuse to sign peace treaties. Israel needs to stop their enemies from acquiring weapons.
Iran is the war monger. Iranians shout “Death to Israel.” They print “Death to Israel” on their missiles. Iran has offered to help anyone who is willing to attack Israel.
Yes, I know. My point is that nothing the US has contributed after all these years has helped. Maybe, if Israel flew unassisted and free it would be better able to coexist. This cannot be known unless it is tried.
They could make peace, if they’d make reasonable compromises. They won’t. They want it all, and they are taking it all by force, killing as their method of choice.
Israel kills again. Constantly.
This can’t end well for anyone. Not for Israel either, but they are likely to take a lot more of us down with them.
It is impossible for Israel to do these actions without complete agreement from the US. In fact, one has to wonder if Israel is not really an off-shoot of the Pentagon. The arrangement is: Pentagon “defends” Israel, thereby claiming a moral justification for congressional funding; the Zionist State of Israel, on their side, gorge of the free money from the Pentagon in support of their ideological project, brazenly flaunting their power over Palestinians in the furtherance of the ethnically pure state. Win-Win that creates nausea in any decent person. .
we are matt dillon and israel is our chester, festus, newly, doc and kitty. we will protect them to the hilt and other ME downtrodden countries know it and stay clear. oh, they lob a rocket without aiming now and then but we make them pay. we will help them eventually create a greater israel as they are not content with the current borders. once we rid the area of the palestinians then we can gobble up much of syria. we have to give some of western syria to turkey that they seem to want. we plan to take damascus without a fight and will celebrate at basher assads former residence as he will have fled.
I do not see it turning out this way. The only reason Turkey is acting as a regional power is because it is supported by Russia and China. The only reason Egypt is acting as a regional power in Libya is because of Russian support. The only reason US cannot get any one from the Gulf region to front for the war on Iran, is Russian and Chinese influence.
Anybody bought the Saudi-Russia oil war story? Where Saudis got mad at Russia for NOT wanting more cuts, and then went crazy producing MORE, and crashing prices along the way! To grab market share from Russia?
They both have long term contracts and their customers are not fleeing anywhere. It was an agreed upon process to get oil prices down to reality.
Israel is a special story. Our subcontractor in Syria, making sure that once Idlib saga is over, that peace cannot proceed. But at present nobody is biting.
I would not worry about it — at the moment all the players in Syria are ignoring Israel, Why? Because they still have work to do. Idlib is still in the early stages of its pacification, and West funded HTS with Helmets is still there.
Iraq is not letting itself dragged into war with Iran, neither is anyone else in the Gulf. US and European allies are now playing for any wannabe ISIS, Saudis are out of the business.
Israel is nothing more then an annoyance, and nobody wants to drop their eyes from the ball. Besides Iran, two regional problems are being steered away from US levers — Yemen and Libya.
These are happy times for Israel — in chaos it can do what it wants. But all good things come to an end.
we have to promise russia that northern part of iran where the resort area is up there after iran gets taken out. they have had their eye on that for some time. they covet warm weather acquisitions. we also have to give them mineral rights in exchange for their non-involvement. we cannot complete this mission with them in the way of things.
Arab terrorists ethnically cleansed the West Bank, Gaza & East Jerusalem of EVERY Jew. Israel could have done the same to the Arabs in Israel, but it didn’t. There are 1.8 million Arabs living in Israel today.
Israel is multi-racial, multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, multi-confessional, multi-lingual liberal democracy.
