So what is left for them to use?
Answer...Missiles.
Syria has calculated that she cannot defeat the IDF via the mechanized route or via Airpower.
For 2 decades plus Syria has divereted her spending to missile programs..and protected launch facilities.
Russia,China,North Korea and Iran have been busy like bee's in Syria.
Lessons were learned during the Gulf war...in most cases Saddams underground facilities were easily accessible to U.S. munitions..but there were some foreign built structures..very deep..and with layered..concrete/dirt /concrete sub levels.
The U.S. munitions at that time where stretched to fully penetrate and destroy..in some cases..they did'nt.
This model..now finds its reproduction in Syria.
Syria now hosts a multitude of deep layered facilties for the building..storage and launch of their missiles.
Warhead yeilds are not of great value..but the strategy is Russian/Chinese...numbers.
The U.S. and Israel have been working closely on this facility issue..several achievements have occured in the form of deep penetrating nuclear ordinance.
The Syrian strategy hypothesized is to hit Israel with a combination of Bio chem weapons...and runway busting missiles, and of course Israels Nuclear sites.
Removing Israels ability to stage the IAF in the first minutes is critical doctrine to them.
Syrias vulnerability comes via chain of command..and inability to ramp up things without the Intel knowing it.
Intel being America and Israel.
Flanked by the Mediterranean..they are vulnerable.
Critical doctrine reveals that Israel will infact pre-empt them..she has too.
Syria's sites are all known..satillite has them mapped.
Israel has several options..they would be multi-layered to gaurantee success.
Israel would most likely drop squads with demolition expertise to close the openings to these facilites...these troops would litterly be sacrificed as they might not be able to be extridited.
Air drop deep penetrating nukes for facilites the IDF feels thay cannot get near to via the ground would occur.
In the same window of time..following on after the first wave engages would come multi-phasing EMP to shatter Syrias com /grid.
Satillite passes would reveal what is operational and what isn't.
After the EMP had dispersed..Israels Airforce could mop up what remains.
Israel will have to catch them off guard..and nail the most critical sites in the first hour...nuetronic ordinance will be used aswell.
The missile command and com link are Israels first targets..air facilites and ground to air sites would only factor in if they jeopordized the assult.
This has to be pulled off within 1 hour..or it will not work.
Unless has secretly converted to aircraft such as the Harrier her Air assets are vulnerable..and this is Her greatest tactical asset.
Back to Islam:
Eventually..Syria will be manipulted to Engage Israel with her missile command.
To Islam..it is an asset..it must be used.
Russia..China..Iran..will all be pulling strings to bring this about.
The Palestinians..Hizbullah..they are the earlier chess peices moved...expendable.
Islam allready possess nuclear warheads..afew..more will be given them as the confidence levels grow.
On final:
Prophetic scripture reveals a consistant theme..litterly names the cites and areas where Syrias missiles and command centres are...the message..they are destroyed in one hour!
This is the next threshold the mid-east will cross..it is certain to happen.
