Several friends in Israel have reported an unusual number of IAF jets streaking across the skies over the past few days.
Now, we know why.
The Free Syrian Army (FSA) reports that Israeli fighter jets slipped into Damascus over the weekend and bombed a chemical weapons depot outside the city.
Neither Damascus nor Jerusalem have yet confirmed the attack, according to UPI.
According to The Jewish Press (JP) “many” reports came in over the weekend confirming the mission. Sources told the JP Israeli jets arrived over Damascus early Saturday morning and circled Assad’s presidential compound before moving on to target the weapons site.
The Israeli jets reportedly received fire but returned to base unscathed.

Barack Hussein Obama’s policy of leading from behind and seeking a consensus from the Jew-hating United Nations has made it clearer than ever that Israel must go it alone against the genocide-yearning Muslims of the Middle East.
Obama’s red line, I think all rational people understand, is nothing more than the political posturing of a man with little moral courage, and zero understanding of the brutal calculus of the Middle East.
Seraphic Secret does not believe America should intervene in Syria’s bloodbath, where the only choice is between evil and evil. But America should work to eliminate Syria’s massive stockpile of chemical-biological weapons.
We can all be thankful that Israel actually has some red lines — and a government that understands that grave warnings are hollow vessels compared to military action.
Unless America moves aggressively against Islamist agents of mass destruction, America will eventually wake up to a biological-chemical attack that will make 9-11 and the Boston Massacre seem mild.
In the meantime, America, Israel has your back.


The matter of the chemical stockpile falling into the hands of “the righteous rebel cause” is serious. Those weapons in the hands of Al Queda is the prize and the means to unleash hell. Let that stuff loose and we have death and destruction globally. Genocide is the game and Islam is the name.
Since we lost Margaret Thatcher, it’s nice to see we still have Netanyahu. What a partnership he and Romney would have been !
Netanyahu at the moment seems to be the only hope of the West
I was reading that al Queda has been fighting trying to seize control of one of these stockpiles. But I have complete faith on Obama to stop this 😉
That bad boy in the photo isn’t going to Syria. From his load configuration it’s somewhere far away for a F-16.
“In the meantime, America, Israel has your back.”
I actually saw souvenir t-shirts for sale in Jerusalem that said this. “Don’t worry America, Israel has your back!” Sad but true.
Totally true! If it were not for Israel today — the world would be a totally different place. What if Israel was not emotionally, mentally or physically capable to thwart Iran and her proxies? They’d have a green light to paint the world in blood. Forget about Obama’s “red line” bluff. Israel is defending everyone on the planet! I’d like to have that T-shirt!
Go Israel!
It isn’t the first time Israel has done the dirty job no one else was willing to.
I agree wholeheartedly with your analysis Robert, except that I am not willing to think for a moment that Obozo has “zero understanding of the brutal calculus of the Middle East.”
Given his propensity for befriending and hanging around with Middle-Eastern miso-Judaics (there’s got to be something pretty explosive on that tape the LA Times has), I do not doubt he knows *exactly* what is going to happen to all those millions of dollars of “aid” he has decided to send to the PA, Egypt, etc. Getting involved in Syria is about THE most bottom-of-the-barrel stupid foreign policy decision that may have come from an administration in the last, oh, 25 years. ‘Cause you KNOW where weapons and US-trained “fighters” will turn their attention to next. And the current POTUS *doesn’t care.* Look, the whole supposed official counter-terrorism community did NOTHING to ensure the safety of U.S. citizens. The winds are blowing and the POTUS is NOT standing with the U.S.
Israel is taking care of her business, and Iran has to be next. Sadly, she’ll have to go it alone among the nations (may HaKadoshBaruchHu strengthen her arms and protect her warriors).
dah, I commented on an earlier post – mentioning that Obama is Muslim-centric. I agree with everything you are saying in this post. Who knew the U.S. would ever turn against Israel? It took this turn-coat of a president to be able to do so with such audacity. Our society has become so P.C. that it is almost considered racist to challenge this man’s judgment. Robert is right-on-target with his pithy turn-of-phrase: “America, Israel has your back.” If only WE also had ‘her’ brave (mature) and just leader – Benjamin Netanyahu. It’s obvious they will indeed have to take care of Iran on their own. It also my fervent hope that God watches over Israel. Having said that – I agree with the saying: “God helps those who help themselves.”
” it is almost considered racist to challenge this man’s judgment”
Only almost?
