Israel Attacks Syria — Again
Just as the mainstream press is reporting — in astonishment — that the Syrian government has actually abided by its unilaterally agreed upon pledge to submit its strategic chemical weapon deterrent to destruction by the international community, the international media is reporting that the Israeli military has once again launched a military attack against Syrian territory.
This marks at least the fifth time in 2013 that the Israeli military has, in clear violation of international law, launched military attacks against neighboring Syria. In violation of Lebanese airspace as well, it was reported that Israeli bombers flew over Lebanon to strike a Syrian military base near Latakia.
As in the previous attacks by Israel against Syria, the Israeli government has refused to confirm or deny its actions, with a government spokesperson saying flatly, “We don’t refer to foreign reports.”
So Syria agrees to give up its one deterrent against an overwhelmingly militarily superior and nuclear-armed neighbor, Israel, and the response is yet another Israeli attack on Syria — this time with no possible threat of Syrian strategic retaliation. Assad looks more and more foolish to agree to unilateral disarmament considering the continued aggression of his regional neighbors — Israel, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia (all with US support).
The Syrian deal with the West all of a sudden looks like capitulation and an invitation for a Western attack. This is nothing new — ask Qaddafi about that. Oh, that’s right, he was murdered by NATO operatives in a Western invasion after he agreed to relinquish his own strategic arsenal.

Israel did the actual attack but the US is in there somewhere. If nothing else by doing nothing. I have come to believe the US is totally out of control. I have great sympathy for the rest of the world as the US military behemoth imposes it’s will everywhere. I spent a couple of decades working with addicts and our behavior reminds me so much of those folks.

The slaughter of Syria was prepared in Washington thinktanks in the nineties, by people, Henry Ford would have little trouble identifying them.

“Britain’s Jack Straw: unlimited Jewish funds wrecking Mideast peace possibilities”
For the record: JTA stands for Jewish Telegraph Agency and Jack Straw is jewish himself, both institutions not known for neo-natzie sympathies.
Where do these ‘unlimited funds’ come from? Banking in general and interest payments over dollar funny money until kingdom comes in particular, from private (mainly Jewish) ownership of the Fed.
