Big Brass Balls! Israeli F-16's Buzz Syrian President in Syria

[Kippi ben Kippod]

In new crisis, Syria says its air defenses opened fire on intruding Israeli air force jets

June 28, 2006, 10:42 PM (GMT+02:00)

Unofficial Israel sources confirm that 4 Israeli F16 fighters buzzed the Syrian presidential summer palace in Latakia early Wednesday, June 28, as pressure on Bashar Assad to bring about Hamas release of kidnapped Israeli corporal Gilead Shalit. Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal whom Syria harbors is accused of orchestrating Hamas attacks and hostage-taking.

Syria accuses Israel of a hostile and provocative act and says its air defenses opened fire and forced the Israeli warplanes to flee. The Syrian president was at home at the time of the incident.

DEBKAfile reports: One Israeli official after another struck out against Meshaal and the Syrian president during the day after the Olmert government and his security and intelligence chiefs concluded that the missing soldiers recovery alive depends on military pressure being applied to the Syrian ruler and through him on Meshaal. It is no secret that Assad gives Hamas and its political leadership headed by Meshaal free rein to run the Hamas military arm in Gaza from Damascus.

Our intelligence sources disclose that, straight after the Israeli buzzing early Wednesday, Assad returned to Damascus and soon after, met Jordanian prime minister Maaruf Bahait (former ambassador to Israel), who had come over to discuss the Palestinian reconciliation document and the crisis in Gaza. According to our sources, Assad kept on complaining agitatedly about the Israeli over flights.

For Americans to do that, it would be politically incorrect, cause 75% of Americans would disapprove. All of Isreal is for it, im sure they are dancing in the streets, and ready to take out Palastine and Syria

What spooky said.

I think it's funny every time I see a headline that says some country has asked Israel to give it more time. Israel's response has apparently been, "No. (Click.)"

Do you thinnk that Israel plays to great a role in the foreign policy of the U.S.? Why have Israeli interests become American interests. 4 Billion dollars a year goes to Israel from the U.S. for defense spending, why?

My best guess to that one is that we have decided that the answer to commu-social-despot-radicalism spreading around the world is to try to to spread democracy/capitalism around the world. At least as far back as Reagan, all of these -isms have been defined on the same level as religion. Right or wrong, I'm sure our foreign policy in the middle east sees Israel as the only possible friend we have in that region, which is important when it comes to things like intelligence gathering. Gutting our intelligence budget in the past few decades has led to so many failures in intelligence which already existed going back at least as far as 1989 in Panama. Oh, yeah, Desert One was fucked up. Make that 1979.

Anyway, that's my guess.

But my point was that it's just good to see a country do what it feels it needs to do without thinking that they have to get permission from the world to do it. It's one thing when there are guys in white hats and other guys in black hats and you ask your friends what they think. It's another thing when you have no friends wearing the same color hat and asking the people around you for advice is just plain stupid.

That's what Israel faces and, to an extent, that's what the U.S. faces because there are so many countries that seem like friends but really aren't. Israel knows they are on their own and they act. Balls to them. The U.S. either does what they consider to be the right thing and gets persecuted by everybody, beginning with our own media and citizens, or we just bend over for the UN and do nothing. Then the same media and citizens complain that we did nothing, and they're right that time.

Eqypt says give it a while and Israel looks on their list of friends. Egypt isn't on the list so they get to fuck off. I like seeing a country that gets it.

Why Bosnia and not Rwanda? Good question. Why are we in Iraq? Good question, but if we weren't there and Saddam got off some kind of attack, everybody would wonder why we didn't stop him. Historical proof?

Here, the terrorists killed 3,000 of us and the complaint is that we could have stopped them. So, now we find oursleves in Iraq purportedly to stop something bad and the same people are asking why we're there. They forgot already.

Israel looked around the room and said what needs to be done today? Do it.

Hope that made some kind of sense to someone. It does to me, but that may mean nothing.
