Nukes strange doings in Syria [Charles Krauthammer]

On Sept. 6, something important happened in northern Syria. Problem is, no one knows exactly what. Except for those few who were involved, and they're not saying.

We do know that Israel carried out an airstrike. How then do we know it was important? Because in Israel, where leaking is an art form, even the best-informed don't have a clue. They tell me they have never seen a better-kept secret. Which suggests that whatever happened near Dayr az Zawr was no accidental intrusion into Syrian airspace, no dry run for an attack on Iran, no strike on some conventional target such as an Iranian Revolutionary Guard base or a weapons shipment on its way to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

It's too late for sanctions: We've already tried those. We must send in special operations forces to assist Iranian opposition forces, then attack the Iranian nuclear weapons production facilities and regime targets.

Kraut’s analysis - this extra information, has not been available.

Even if posted before, it’s the first time I’ve read this extra information about Turkey, Iran’s options, and Iran’s proxies against Israel.

After Carolina_Thor said that, I checked, and it was posted under a completely different title, from another source and dated earlier.

"Sanctions will not stop Ahmadinejad. True. But there are others in the Iranian elite who might stop both him and the nuclear program before the volcano explodes. Wishful thinking. Ahmadinejad's lust for power will send out death squads to those he suspects will oppose his efforts. All he has to do is follow North Korea's example of how to oppress its people. North Korea is an Orwellian slave state where human beings are owned by the state. There will never be an uprising of the Iranian people to overthrow a savage totalitarian government like this. They have been conditioned by their government and Islam to submit to their government (Islam means submission).

We have better get a grip on the nature of this menace in the Middle East. There is little time.

I cannot believe you posted that pic of that Vietnamese.

[txhurl]

Tell me why you posted that pic? Or are you still awake?

[samtheman]

Circumstantial evidence points to this being an attack on some nuclear facility provided by North Korea.

The US is a pussy nation for allowing ships to leave NK ports.

[Carolina_Thor]

well truthfully, this was good enough to be brought up again in any event. Some might not have caught it first time around. :)
