Think about that ASSAD...
I sure hope that’s not an empty threat.
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Now this is what I call, “Land for peace”.
We take your land till you stop attacking us.
Simple really.
a ground invasion “deep into Syria?”
Ummm, how deep into Lebanon did Israel get last summer?
We will see.
I would hope that Isreal would take a hard stand against this kind of threatening move, but I’m not so sure they will.
The loss by Isreal to the Hezbollah in last year’s little war really makes me sceptical of this.
Israel never does enough to scare the Syrians. They don’t kill enough.
SKEPTICAL.
The problems in the Middle East are interrelated, and Syria is one of the key links between the state-sponsoring links of terror.
IDF Will Invade Syria if Missiles Fly
why invade...just carpet bomb and level damascus....
that should get the f’n muzzie terrorists’ attention!!!!
Israel is in the business of employing diplomats as of late.
Guess we’ll find out if any Iraqi WMDs went to Syria.
Hey guys remember Israel couple years ago smackdown Hezollah camp then they buzz President of Syria crib after that was classic LOL!
Dumb, dumb, dumb.
NOT “Until the missile barrage ends”.
Regime change.
The Israelis should come right out and say that if Syria attacks Israel, then Israel will kick out Assad and put the MAJORITY SUNNIS in charge, OVER the 10% MINORITY ALAWITE SHIITES that currently rule.
Not only would this scare the living poop out of the Alawites, but every Sunni power in the Middle East would be 100% behind Israel in doing it. Israel could even invite the Egyptian and Saudi armies to occupy Syria to insure that the Sunnis completely control the place.
And boy, howdy, would the Sunnis get revenge on the Alawites. And at the same time, that would be the end to many of the problems in Lebanon.
But the one thing Israel should NO NOT NEVER do is just go into Syria, take out some missiles, and leave.
Why is this news? Did we think Israel was going to send a thank-you card when Syria attacked?
Were it me, I think I would respond in kind, with multiple missile strikes, on several military and command targets.
The reporter said Syria possesses thousands of missiles capable of hitting virtually any point within Israel. The only way to counter this threat, he said, would be to launch a swift strategic ground assault into Syria until the missile attack ceases
