Israel Preparing for Action in Syria, Says Former Mossad Chief - July 13, 2012 - Former Mossad chief Danny Yatom said on Thursday that Israel is preparing for the possibility of military action in Syria, in case its chemical weapons were to end up in the hands of Hizbullah or other terrorist organizations in the region.

“The conventional wisdom should be that we cannot exclude a non-conventional attack on Israel,” he said. “We would have to pre-empt in order to prevent it. We need to be prepared to launch even military attacks... and military attacks mean maybe a deterioration to war.”

A top IDF officer said recently that Israel is “in preparations for the possibility of war and in the midst of deployment with the situation in Syria in mind.”

The greatest challenge facing Division 36, which is placed in the Golan, is the possibility of facing a surprise attack, said the officer, Brig. Gen. Tamir Heiman, Commander of Division 36. “The biggest concern is a combined terror attack and we are preparing for this in the Golan area.”

I’ll take that as a “yes.”

So is Israel going to “S$$t” or get off the pot?? They been talking for some time now about how they we’re going to have to do bomb this or preemptive that. I have no doubt in Israel’s ability to defend itself but its past time to put these words to action. I’m starting to think that Israel is going to have to preemptively nuke a lot of the region straight to hell in order to make sure they are safe.
