The Syrian army has begun deploying advanced surface-to-surface missiles and has aimed them at Tel Aviv, the British Sunday Times reports.

According to the report, Syria is preparing to strike Israel in case the Jewish State launches another attack on its territory.

The army has received orders to strike central Israel in case additional attacks against Syria are carried out, according to the Sunday Times.

The information was reportedly obtained by reconnaissance satellites that were tracking the Syrian forces. According to the report, Syria was deploying advanced Tishreen missiles, which are capable of carrying a warhead of a half a ton.

Pathetic...

G.W. Bush had it right when he termed them the “Axis of Evil”. Everybody laughed at Bush then, now we will have hell to play for the Clintonian and Obamian doctrines of Appeasement. Isn't it obvious that Iran is playing the North Korean Nuclear model? Israel will have to use its entire arsenal just to hold them at bay while Obama fiddles away...really pathetic.

There is the notion of counter value. The Israelis have capability of reducing Assad’s palatial homes to cinders. So far, they have only attacked military assets that threaten their population. Assad abets Iran not so much out of ideological sympathy, but lust for power and luxury for himself and his family. Luxury is best enjoyed in peace time conditions.

The last thing Assad wants is war with anyone. His embrace of Iran is a marriage of convenience, since Iran and their proxies Hezbollah supply the muscle that keep him in power. Israel provides a convenient distraction from his corruption and betrayal of Syria.

The current unrest is largely the result of Obama’s destabilizing influence in the Middle East. Obama, Clinton and Kerry have accomplished little other than getting a lot of people killed unnecessarily. (Granted, a bullet through Qaddafi’s diseased pumpkin was a beneficial side effect.)

I don’t understand why Israel hasn’t taken all these countries out. Why are they listening to Obama(Clinton in the past). They should turn all the other countries into a big parking lot. They need to take back the original land and do what they need to for the rest.

How about pointing missiles at the Dome of the Rock. This was taken by Muzzie’s and can easily be taken back. As soon as anyone in the Muzzie world starts action, they should blow the Muzzie shrine into dust. Then taken out all involved. Stop listening to Liberal crybabies. Take what belongs to you.

No one in a position of responsibility in the West has the stomach to annihilate or thoroughly impoverish the population of Muslim countries, including the government of Israel. I happen to agree. Any country that did so would be seen a criminal government worse than the Nazis.

A credible threat of force, the Sampson option, is always there. The problem for the Syrians is that when the Israelis defend themselves, quietly, from Iran’s catspaws in Syria, it embarrasses the government and embolden’s its enemies.

Aaah yes, let’s get sympathy for the rebels by making up a story about Assad pointing missiles at Israel.

Assad isn’t that stupid.

Back to the drawing board I guess, right?
