Maybe the jet lost its way?

The US and her allies are probably using a variety of counter measures that might confuse the jet. Like radar jamming for SAMs, etc.

Assad’s plate is full right now. The hated Jews are the least of his worries.

That Sukhoi was probably due to be scrapped. Might as well make it into an international incident.

the Syrian jet penetrated 2,600 feet into Israeli air space and tried to return to Syria after the Patriot missile was fired.

Half a mile? And he didn't make it out?

Boy, that's some serious "payin attention" by the Israelis.
