Israeli planes bomb suspected chemical weapons site in Syria

"Israel launched an airstrike into Syria,
apparently targeting a suspected weapons site,
U.S. officials said Friday night.
The strike occurred overnight Thursday into Friday,
the officials told The Associated Press.
It did not appear that a chemical weapons site
was targeted, they said, and one official said
the strike appeared to have hit a warehouse."

Israel finally pulling it's weight in the region? sounds good to me.

[billy123]

Israel finally pulling it's weight in the region? sounds good to me.I wonder which sponsor told them to :whistle:

[Nedusa]

How dare Syria acquire these weapons they have no business amassing these weapons of mass destruction ...!!!!

There's only one country in that region that can hold vast arsenals of weapons of mass destruction......

[Nedusa]

Israel will keep up these unprovoked attacks trying to get a response from Syria, at which point they'll play the victim card as always and scream for the "international community" to step in and save them. After all, why should Israel pay with cash and blood to do the job, when Nato/US forces will be made to do it for them!

The Highly trained and most moral force in the world, the IDF, only excels in the face of zero opposition and no return fire, so it makes sense for the cowards to stay safe at home, taking pot shots at Palestinian farmers and children, while the rest of us get to go and bomb, then invade, their neighbours for them.
The constant overflights of Lebanon by Israeli warplanes are a ridiculous provocation on an almost weekly basis, yet you can be sure that if the Lebanese forces actually shot one of those aircraft down, Israel would again scream that they are the good guys and in the right, even though international law says otherwise.

Clearly this is the latest attempt by Israel to widen the conflict in Syria and drag Iran into the mix. Clearly this is their real target and they are desparate to create the circumstances for air strikes on Iran.

This whole situation is poised to get much worse very quickly as the Russians and Chinese will not sit idly by and watch the western powers redraw the political/ military landscape. They will probably start selling/ supplying the S300 & S400 Anti Aircraft systems which would make it very dangerous for NATO to enforce a no fly zone.

A worrying situation for all....!!!!

Israeli foreign policy almost makes you forgive Ahmedinejad's cartographical comments about them, really.

This is Syria we're talking about here. I suppose you've read about Syria in the news recently? You know, about the genocide and stuff?

[arista]

"genocide "


Its more of a civil war.
if it was genocide
America would Invade

you mean like we did in Rwanda?...hmmmm.

[MTVN]

Yeah the Syrian war shouldn't be looked as at a case of the good rebels taking on the evil regime, the news today is actually that there is strong evidence of the rebels using chemical weapons: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-22424188. That's to add to the numerous other atrocities that the Rebels have committed

This is another case of reckless aggression on Isreal's part, they seem to think they have the right to just arbitrarily use military force on very flimsy justification whenever they feel like it

And Fecking America
as the President lets them do what they want.

[arista]

Ch4News Live also says
it was the Rebals that used the nerve gas
United Nations say.

[MTVN]

That is the story I posted a link to an hour ago, keep up arista

[MTVN]

Sorry I did not see the 'also'

[lostalex]

There are no good guys to support in Syria. The rebels are Islamic extremists that would probably want to run the government like the Taliban did in Afghanistan pre-9/11, and the Assad government is a brutal dictatorship.

You've got millions of civilians in between them. What do you do?

It's a lose/lose situation. There's really no one to support in this mess. It's gonna turn out bad for everyone whether Assad stays in power, or if the rebels win and instal an islamist government.

I think Israel blowing up a chemical weapons plant is good though, because at least it will keep people from using those chemical weapons which would be distastrous for civilians because chemical weapons would hurt civilians more than just normal gun/rocket warfare.

[Nedusa]

Heard on News today Russia has now confirmed sale of advanced Air defence missile systems including S300 and possibly upgrade to lethal S400 in near future.

Either way this a game changer and the Western powers & Israel would not be able to make incursions into Syrian airspace or invoke no fly zones without the very real possibility of losing their aircraft.

Looks like Russia has decided to help keep Assad in power in the short term at least...!!!

[Livia]

Then surely it's the Russians that are the bad guys? What possible idiotic reason could they have for supporting Syria? I mean, usually, the Russians are usually so level-headed and peace-loving. Aren't they.

I have to agree with you arista,this would be a crazy move,not one I would support.

[BBfanUSA]

Even though this is bad. I don't see a world war coming out of this mess

Sure but those weapons could return
into the wrong people hands
to Attack Americans, French and British, later.


Also this is like going to War with Russia
who will supply arms to the Leader of Syria.

That is Crazy.

"The US has said it will provide military support
to the Syrian rebels after confirming it believes
there is concrete evidence of nerve gas attacks
by government forces against rebel groups."



So the American will give small guns & rifles to the Rebals
and that includes Al-Qaeda.


They Never Ever Learn.


Its to little to Late.

[Nedusa]

President Obama has agreed to send small arms to the rebels in Syria, just small arms nothing else so this is really not much of anything. Just more rhetoric which will do nothing on the ground. The west are worried if the situation on the ground doesn't shift their way then any peace conference in the future will be so one sided for Assad that it will be a waste of time.

The West have lost control of this situation and are heavily on the back foot in Syria. With Russia arming Assad and Iran directing Hezbollah the current regime is slowly pushing these rebels out of Syria.

I have to say this situation is probably the scariest conflict I have seen for many years as all the major players are involved and this has the potential to escalate into a major international crises the like the world has not seen for many years...!!!

[SharkAttack]

Maybe our countries' top people think they can help the rebels take control, and the rebels will be easier to control after? What is Russia's endgame? And Iran's? I don't like any of this.

[Nedusa]

I heard that in Iran's elections today the Ayatollahs are pinning their support on a hard line contender that would make Ahmadinejad look like a liberal reformer.

Trust me, they're already there....!!!!

[the truth]

INSANITY

why are we world police again? why cant we be back seat drivers? why not let the united nations take charge? as they did in lybia to get rid of ghadaffi?
Imagine there are 1000 people in your town centre smashing each other to bits, then you walked into the middle of it and handed out a load of grenades and bazookas to half of them? will that make the situation better or worse?

why is hague so obsessed with hyping up this situation and why does he seem hell bent on arming the rebels? especially in Syria? where is the negotiation? discussion with the political leaders? exactly when do we actually start to learn from our endless disastrous interventions in incredibly complex situations we can barely understand and have no chance of controlling

The only beginning to this solution is for all parties to get around a table asap....perhaps even some kind of power sharing government can be formed.

[arista]

"why not let the united nations take charge?"


Because they are to small now
and stuck in the Congo.



Its USA Vs Russia


Russia wins

[lostalex]

Russia wins? lol. Your even dumber than you look if you believe that Arista. Russia lost 30 years ago and they haven't made any progress since.

Let's also remember that's it's been EUROPE not the USA that has been pressing for support for the Syrian rebels.

If anyone deserves credit for this announcement it's Europe, and France and the UK in specific. If anyone is the poodle in this situation, it's the USA, because France and the UK are too pathetic to even be capable of doing any military operations on their own, they are totally reliant on the USA to do anything militarily and they have been pressing the USA to get involved in Syria for months now. Just like they did with Libya.

If it were up to me, we';d tell Europe to go **** themselves, especially france and UK, and be done with the middle east. The middle east is Europes back yard, it's their responsibility. ****ing TYPICAL that they are dragging us into ANOTHER one of their wars.

[arista]

Russia will win as they
Supply Air support massive weapons to Syria

America can not stop that

[lostalex]

As far as i'm concerned, I wish america would just say **** the middle east, pull all the troops out from every country in the middle east, and let them kill each other all they like. I want nothing to do with it.

I'm so ****ing sick of it all.

Let Russia and China and Iran run the middle east. **** them. It's Europe and China that get most of the oil from the middle east anyway, America needs to let Europe finally start fighting it's own wars. We've been protecting Europe since WW2, it's time they started standing on their own 2 feet.

[joeysteele]

Hate to say it but I agreed with George Galloway on QT as to this that the so called rebel forces should not get armed by the UK particularly.
I am surprised to say the least at the USA now getting involved at all,it seemed President Obama was very reluctant to do so.

I am against any UK involvement and I do feel our Foreign Secretary William Hague has followd the wrong path as to this all along.
We have hardly any idea as to the real make up of these so called rebel forces anyway and we should keep firmly out of this one.
As should Europe too in my view.

[lostalex]

The EU should create it's own defense force, so they stop relying on the US. we all know the French and British have been pressuring America to get involved for MONTHS now.

The problem with these rebellions is that they often swap one dictator for another. I don't think we should be favouring any side.

[lostalex]

But Rebals have used it as well
Fact

my point is both sides are as vile as each other, but Putin is only selling weapons to 1 side, so he's a hypocrite. He has no right to sell weapons to the syrian government and then criticize the the US if we give weapons to the rebels.

Obviously i'm against arming any of these evil fookers. I think we should stay as far away from the entire thing as possible and let the UN sort it out. But the arms industry is large. Both the US and Russia make billions of dollars a year selling weapons.

[arista]

" Putin is only selling weapons to 1 side"


Yes the President of Syria
thats his choice.



Better than 5 or 6 rebal groups
that end up killing Americans , French and British

OIC, it's fine if Russia's weapons are used to kill people fighting against a tyrannical dictatorship, but heaven forbid any americans or brits get killed.

What would you do if Assad was YOUR president Arista? would you fight him? or would you stay a silent slave? And how would you feel about Russia arming him?

These are the people obama aka America wants to give weapons to make your own mind up.
