Israel Hits Syria, Iran Threatens Retaliation, Russia Mad
Israel Hits Syria, Iran Threatens Retaliation, Russia Mad
Syria's military command says Israeli warplanes attacked military research center in Damascus province denying reports that jets hit weapons convoy; two killed, five injured. Residents, experts say site was chemical weapons facility. Russia is concerned, furious that Israel dare destroy weapons they gave Assad. Hezbollah Islamic Jihads trying to help out their buddy Assad to take care of those Russian made SA-17 missiles. The rebels, Syrian opposition can't tear down the Assad regime but Israel can and will. The Jamraya area contains many military facilities as well as what is likely a chemical weapons production and storage site. The area also houses training camps for Hezbollah combatants who are learning to operate advanced Russian weapons systems. Iran said not long ago that an attack on Syria is an attack on Iran. My concern is, I hope my Canadian government are monitoring, wiretapping the Muslim Islamic terror supporting groups here in my country, they plan to stir the shit no doubt. The pious Islamists say nothing about Assad slaughtering 70000 civilians but get pissed at Israel building some houses on their land, recaptured in 1967. Protests in major cities in the world should be erupting shortly. Don't know what Obama's up too, sending war machines, tanks, F-16 fighter jets to President Morsi Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt is collapsing before our eyes. UN are frivolous idiots. The Foreign Ministry rejected a United Nations Human Rights Council report demanding that

SAUDI ARABIA ARMS SYRIAN REBELS?

Information that the military aid was sent came from an unnamed high-level Arab diplomat speaking to Agence France-Presse. However, the Jordanian government has rejected Saturday reports that it allowed Saudi weapons for Syria to transit its territory. Government spokesman Rakan al-Majali told United Press International that the reports were baseless, according to the Jordan News Agency. Jordan borders Syria in the north, with over 65 per cent of its trade transits coming across that border. Around 80000 Syrians have fled to Jordan since March 2011, according to estimates by local officials. Earlier this week Adnan Hassan Mahmoud, Syria's Minister of Information, said that some countries such as Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which support Syrian "terrorist" groups and provide them with weapons and money, are accomplices in the "terrorism" targeting the Syrian people, and that it is these countries that are responsible for the shedding of Syrian blood. "We've grown accustomed to the bloody escalation of these terrorist groups in committing massacres, murdering citizens and attacking public and private establishments which proceeds international meetings," Hassan Mahmoud said. The accusations were reiterated on Syrian state TV following two powerful bomb blasts that killed
