Probably not the smartest order to come from Assad!:nope:
Not unexpected, the PFGC are already fighting the rebels in the golan and the anti assad palestinians are fighting the government and pro govt palestinians there and south of Damascus.
Since both the pros and antis are also anti Israel the statement makes no difference regarding Israel really

Is it though? Inviting further Isreali actions could be just what Assad needs to undermine his oppponents

Jimbuna 05-07-13 03:50 PM

I'd have thought any further actions by Israel would only hasten his demise.

There is nothing a middle eastern tin pot dictator loves more for rallying support than Israeli action.
Can you see any group apart from some of the PYD wanting to be seen fighting on the same side as Israel?

Jimbuna 05-07-13 04:34 PM

I can see Israel inflicting more harm on his military and turning them against their master than he can stomach in the medium to long term.

But in the short term Irans proxies have been topping up their arsenal via the land route Bush kindly provided and Israel has realised that Iron Dome is too expensive and is not up to the job.

Well past history has taught me many things and one of them is...poke Israel too hard or repeatedly and you'll eventually pay a heavy price.

Not saying I'd like to see that but I firmly believe they have the right to protect themselves as does any nation for that matter.

The problem there is history shows Israel also has to pay a heavy price, and unfortunately it is a price she increasingly can ill afford.

One thing is for sure though. If Assad or his succesor retains power Israel will still have the same problems with Syria. If any one of the rebel groups gain power Israel will still have the same problems with Syria.
Not exactly a winning situation is it.

yoohoo wake up, its your government and your military making the complaints.:doh:

BTW
Any more news of those strangely lost wounded rebels on their magical mystery sightseeing tour?

MH 05-08-13 10:22 AM

Yep more lala stuff.
Some people in military did not want iron dome to begin with very valid arguments.
The effectiveness of this weapon can not be questioned as it has proved itself very well in practice.
Coast effectiveness depends on how you add the numbers and how you chose to look at the issue.
In board view it is quite cost effective.
In pure military aspect not so much.

But as usual Tribsman you just parot same nonsense over and over again.
Here we go... would be mister Spook # 2 lol.

You really are clueless.
It was its actual use during the gaza problems which led to your military and your politicians asking all the questions.
You really should pay more attention to events in your neighbourhood.

It's beginning to look like there is as much chance of you two seeing eye to eye as there is of achieving peace in the middle east.

Don't take it seriously.
Just wanted to know where his rubish comes from and what he makes of it.
We both know he has no idea what he talks about, it is funny thought how stubbornly he pretends he has.

Reports are coming in that Moscow mulls a sale of S300 AD-systems to Syria. Obviously that is not aimed at the rebels, but at the Europeans and Americans and Israelis, to make sure they stay out.

I wonder if Israel will conclude that it can afford such high tech systems just north of it, being said to be potent enough to pose serious risks to Israeli flight operations.

S300's several different incarnatiuons base either on the SA-10 Grumble, or the bigger SA-20 which is capable to intercept ballistic missiles as well. Maximum range of the latest versions is close to 200 km.

The S-300P with SA-10 missiles is seen as the Russian equivalent to the American Patriot system.

I would not be surprised if Israel decides to take the systems out while they are still enroute in Syria on delivery. Not to imagine what it would mean if one of these systems ends up in Lebanon.

Meanwhile, the war enters Jordan'S North-West in growing intensity, it seems. Not only refugees stream in there in growing numbers, but also shells and missled missiles - 50 per week, reports German Frankfurter Rundschau, tendency: upwards. Two major bases of the rebels are located within 1 km of the border, the Syrians "visit" the area frequently. The official borderlines do not mean anything there right now, I think.
