Even more curious is that far from pushing the Syrians and Israelis to war, both seem determined to put a lid on the affair.

Talk about setting off my radar....

Though I doubt that it happened this way...IF Israel captured a North Korean nuke in Syria, the way to play the haul would be to give the NK’ers an Asian way to “save face” while dismantling their nuclear program (which they are doing, complete with unfettered U.S. inspections on the ground).

To that end, part of the deal would be that the Syrian embarassment per se remains an Official secret.
