Are you saying Western sources are pro-Syrian?

The Israeli's just keep very quiet about everything. They do not discuss their operations or make any claims about being successful or otherwise. they just go about their business and let others do the talking.

Denial in the face of lack of suitable evidence is OK for Israel and awards them the legal benefit of innocent until proven guilty, but any country you don't like is automatically guilty until they can prove innocence ?

They are actually very clever. Far too clever.

They are born thieves and liars!

The Syrians have S200 only and the Israelis have familiarity with S300/S400 which the Russians will never deploy against the Israelis because that would be the end of the S400s reputation.

Me thinks you are way over confident ......... so why are the Israeli's so frightened of the Syrians having S-300's? Surely they are not frightened of them as even you are so well informed of how useless they are, the Israeli's must know at least as much as you do about them? Maybe they are in fear ..... they are certainly frightened of Hezbullah and all they have is a few thousand unguided rockets ..... what I would call super fireworks!

The only other action against Syria before the Syrian Civil War, was actually when Syria was about to invade Israel in 1967 and actually got done and lost the Golan Heights. There is nothing wrong with defence.

No country since the creation of the State of Israel has ever attacked the recognised State of Israel! The Israeli's occupy the Golan Height s illegally as they are recognised internationally as a fart of Syria, like they do all of the Palestinian territories. Stealing something and declaring it is yours by virtue of possession .... is still theft no matter how you present it. If those living on the Golan had a referendum and decided they wanted to be part of Israel there would be a reason to believe otherwise. There was no referendum of the people ..... it was an act of war dressed up by the Israeli's as '... their right to defence' ! Again ..... it is all double standards ..... and your ignorance of historical events.

Western sources are not pro Syria or pro USA. they are pro their hip pocket.

When Syrian media are the only sources, they will quote them as "Syrian sources said or say"....especially if it sells their papers or impacts on their viewership.

Yes, there would only be Syrian and Russian sources. The Israelis never talk about their operations and have had that policy for decades. if they launch missiles, they will just do it and not advertise.

They will just keep launching them too until they achieve the result they want to achieve.

In other words they are not there to enlighten the population by providing the truth about these events, but to make money by pushing the financially beneficial and opportunistic line. So the MSM is therefore not the best source for truth is it? But you deny that an independent one-man-band outfit, run on reader contributions, with no financial reason to plug a particular view unless it was one they believed to be accurate as far as possible ..... is plugging propaganda.

When Syrian media are the only sources, they will quote them as "Syrian sources said or say"....especially if it sells their papers or impacts on their viewership.

All sources need to be read and questioned, not just soaked up because they happen to have a particular view. You are notorious for not reading things through which is why I feel you so often miss the point of another's post.

Yes, there would only be Syrian and Russian sources. The Israelis never talk about their operations and have had that policy for decades. if they launch missiles, they will just do it and not advertise.

This is something that I cannot accept and I don't think the rest of the World should accept. Israel has to be held responsible for their actions and they are not. They are protected by the US, flout International Law and the UN Charter with impunity with no consequences. IMO: I think that is going to end for both Israel, the US and the NATO countries. I don't know how but something has to change. The World cannot allow the US and their puppets to tell the rest of the World what they can and cannot do! The Israeli tail is wagging the US dog ..... someone will doc the dogs tail!

They will just keep launching them too until they achieve the result they want to achieve.

But the Israeli's, whilst claiming they have every right to defend themselves from an imaginary threat from Syria, then deny that Syria has the same right to protect itself from clearly demonstrated Israeli aggression? .

Syria downs Israeli rockets after Quneitra shelled


Thu May 10, 2018 12:25AM


" Syrian air defenses have intercepted several rockets fired from Israeli aircraft after the Tel Aviv regime targeted Syrian army positions in the occupied Golan Heights.

Syria's official SANA news agency reported early on Thursday that the rockets were intercepted after some 20 projectiles were launched from Syrian soil at Israeli positions in the Golan Heights in response to an earlier Israeli shelling of Quneitra province.

The Israeli army claimed that some of the missiles fired from Syria had been intercepted and that the level of damage was "low."

Earlier, Syrian media said that Israeli troops had shelled the city of Baath in the southern province of Quneitra.

No casualties have been reported from any of the incidents.

On Tuesday, Israeli missiles targeted Syrian army positions in the Kisweh area south of the capital city Damascus. "

Isral fired multiple tank shells and dropped bombs from planes on targets in Hadar, Syria and when the people they were attacking (Iranians FIRED BACK, the Israelis are telling their people "We've been attacked by Iranian forces." They have now updated this position to "We consider this an act of war against Israel by Iran and Syria."


UPDATE 7:15 PM EDT --
IDF positions on Mount Hermon are now coming under fire from Syrian Forces who they attacked earlier.
Ten separate IDF positions/Bases are now engaged in combat with Syria. Israel attacked first.


UPDATE 8:13 PM (STAFF)
Syrian anti-aircraft defenses are engaging several fresh barrages of Israeli missiles over Damascus. Local citizens are uploading video to social media showing the missiles flying back and forth over their apartment buildings and homes. Terrifying.

REPORTS OF HEAVY ISRAELI AIR STRIKES AGAINST SYRIA'S 10TH BRIGADE IN QATNA, OUTSIDE OF DAMASCUS AFTER ISRAEL ACCUSED IRANIAN QUDS FORCE IN THAT AREA OF DARING TO FIRE 20 ROCKETS BACK AFTER ISRAELI TANKS FIRED UPON THEM!

UPDATE 8:20 PM (STAFF) --
BRITISH TYPHOON FIGHTER JETS TAKING OFF FROM CYPRUS.

UPDATE 8:32 (STAFF)
Warning Sirens sounding in Haifa, Israel.

The Israeli government has invoked Military Media Censorship upon all Israeli media outlets. They are forbidden to report on the ongoing clashes and cannot report on the severe damage done to Israeli outposts and military infrastructure in the Golan Heights in response to the Israeli attacks against Syria.

UPDATE 7:50 PM EDT (STAFF) -
Syria scored direct hits on Israel early warning intelligence points around the entire occupied Golan Heights.
Syrian air defenses are firing at rockets over the city of Damascus as Israel continues its attacks.
Until THIS moment, no major US mass-media outlet has mentioned even one aspect of today's developments, but CNN International just did a 30 second piece telling their viewers "Iran rockets were fired at Israel today from a base in Syria" and that they are keeping an eye on it. Apparently the truth and the facts have no place at CNN.

UPDATE 7:56 PM EDT (STAFF)
We just received detailed information from one of Mr. Turner's former Intelligence Community colleagues and we're not certain how much of this to report. (I've never gotten a call like this before.) According to this Intelligence Operative, the Israel Air Force is preparing a full air assault to attack and destroy all Air Defense systems inside the entire country of Syria within the next few hours. These attacks will also target Russian air defenses in and around the Russian navy base at Tartus and the Russian air base at Latakia. Israel wants Syria and Russia totally defenseless.

Yialousa,

Thank you for the updates. Your info sounds authoritative .... where is it coming from?

At some time one of the parties Israel keeps attacking was going to respond ..... is this the moment that they will now fight back? Will they all pull together and take on the Israeli's ...... and will the US join in using their naval assets in the area against Syria/Iran/Hezbollah forces? Will they wake the Bear up? Will Russia defend its assets against Israel or maybe US intervention :?:

It's getting complex and dangerous! The MSM telling only half the story doesn't help ........ but the timeline on all these events always start where it suits the Western powers story, never from the beginning!

I agree with you about the news from the MSM TV ..... there is none, not even on the radio except to report that Israel is responding to attacks against it by the Iranian IRG ..... although one announcer did mention the occupied Golan Heights was the target ..... that's the end of his career! :roll:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Israeli's don't friggin fir rockets!

They fire precision missiles like the AGM-142 and let me tell you, there is friggin no chance in hell that they were intercepted by any Syrian Air defence System.

They also don't just fire one, but several and they double tap. Look, if the IAF attack, then its Goodnight! Stop being so deluded.

:lol:

You would think that with all the Syrian claims of omnipotence, they wuld be able to show us at least one of these missiles, but no cigar.

You have to give it to the Israeli's, they plan the raids well in advance, implement them and them blame the victim for their own acts of aggression against a Sovereign State! :roll:

Israel Launched Another Attack On Syrian Military Positions - By Moon Of Alabama

May 10, 2018 "Information Clearing House" - When Trump killed the nuclear deal with Iran he gave Israel the chance to start a wider war with Syria. An earlier Israeli simulation of the situation had concluded:

The crisis created by the administration regarding the flaws of the nuclear agreement could be exploited to promote issues more urgent for Israel (mainly Iran’s missile program and presence in Syria).

The Israeli government claims that Iranian support for Syria is a threat to its country. That is a bogus claim. The Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu uses the "Iran threat" as boogeyman to divert attention from other issues like the various corruption cases against himself.

Over the last years Israel attacked Syrian army positions more than 100 times, often in support of al-Qaeda aligned "Syrian rebels". Syria did not respond as it was busy fighting against the Takfiri invasion within the country. In April Israel upped the ante when it attacked the T4 base in the middle of Syria from where Russian and Iranian forces support Syria's fight against ISIS. Iranian soldiers were killed in the attack. The Syrian air defense shot down at least one of the attacking Israeli F-16 jets. This shooting down of the Israeli jets was thought to have established a new balance, but Israel continued to provoke.

On Tuesday, just as Trump announced his breaking of the nuclear deal, Israel launched another strike on what it claimed were Iranian missiles in Syria targeted at Israel. The strike hit a Syrian army depot. Fifteen soldiers, some of them allegedly Iranians, were killed. Even the Israeli media had trouble to find an excuse for the illegal 'preemptive' attack:
