Military Intelligence Chief: Syrian army now at its highest state of alert By Gideon Alon, Haaretz Correspondent Syria has placed its military at its highest state of alert in recent years, Israel Defense Forces Intelligence Chief Major General Amos Yadlin told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Tuesday. Syrian forces do remain, however, on a defensive rather than offensive alert. Yadlin emphasized that "neither Syria nor Israel are interested in a military clash but the situation is explosive and the events may potentially be incorrectly interpreted. This could entangle Syria up in a battle against us." Hezbollah is interested in opening another front for Israel with Syria, Yadlin said. Hezbollah gunners are firing at the Golan Heights in an effort to embroil Syria in the fighting. Yadlin noted that Syria, together with Iran, was Hezbollah's main weapons supplier during the past years. The missiles that killed Israelis in Haifa came from the Syrian military. The Military Intelligence chief rejected assertions that the IDF was surprised by Hezbollah's level of preparedness in south Lebanon. "There was no element of surprise in Hezbollah's deployment," Yadlin said. "During the past year, we passed intelligence assessments on to the decision-making level, including comprehensive information on long-range missiles supplied to Hezbollah." Committee Chairman MK Tzachi Hanegbi (Kadima) supported Yadlin's assertions and said he was "insulted" during the past several days by media reports indicating Israel was surprised by Hezbollah.

The Hezzies want war, Armajabob, who pulls the strings, wants war, and Syria, the b#$&% of Armajabob, just sits their and takes it. Syria has the most to lose and they think Iran can take on the world. They deserve everything they get. By Aug 22, this world will be in Hell. Get ready....
Why August 22nd?
What is relevent about that date?
That's the day the Iranians say they will respond to the 'offer' by the U.N. on their nuclear program.
So they put down the hummis and baba ganouche?
Ah, OK. I see.
Thank you.
And August 23rd (1244) is when the Turks retook Jerusalem from the Crusaders.
The Syrains and the Iranians will fight the Israelis to the death of the last Lebanese!
they have warmed up their drop the gun and run muscles.
They were, after all, French trained.
I hope they're paying attention. Maybe Israel can shut this crowd up again like they were between WW1 and WW2.
I'm sure they have manned all the artillery installations on all the school grounds, readied the 9 year old martyrs, and have freshly beaten their wives.
Idiots.
Highest state of alert? What? Have they opened some new cans of tennis balls? Those are deadly.
I hear the are up to level 5!
And what about August 12,1959??? That was a pretty important date to!
what it really means is the syrian play army has no idea what is happening but the geek dentist dictator is burying himself in his underground bunker with his comic books and Nehi.
Hopefully the IDF will save one bunker-buster for this @sshat.
Bashir is hiding under his bed!
Some sort of mystical Shi'ite rantings..
