CNN) An Israeli F-16 fighter jet crashed Saturday in northern Israel due to "massive anti-aircraft fire" from Syrian forces, according to the Israeli army.
Both pilots aboard the Israeli jet are safe, the Israeli army reported. The incident was reported after an Israeli combat helicopter came in contact with an Iranian unmanned aerial vehicle that had been launched from Syria, the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement. Israeli forces also launched attacks on what they described as Iranian targets in Syria, the IDF said. Jonathan Conricus, a spokesman with the Israel Defense Forces said in a tweet that "Iran is responsible for this severe violation of Israeli sovereignty." http://www.cnn.com/2018/02/10/middle...ash/index.html |

Not sure why all of a sudden they decided to start an attack against Israel, when they clearly have a lot to lose. And they keep firing missiles as we speak. They are clearly looking for trouble.
An attack on Israel is an Iranian attack on the west - US and Europe should back us. As for Russia, I expect nothing for them as they normally side with Iran just for the sake of rivalry with US.

That's very worrying.

The cheek of complaining of having their sovereignty violated

There are a lot of countries having their sovereignty invaded right now - so have no time for those who condemn it in one scenario but support it in another. Nothing like a lot of bias.
