Past reports indicate missiles being transferred to Hezbollah (i24).

Most likely. They definitely have good intel for those types of things. The Syrians and Hezzies have to be wondering where the leak is.

Syria is supposed to have ‘components’ of the vaunted S-300, but not the complete system. Whatever they have isn’t doing them much good.

It seems that Caliph Obola and regime did their best to turn this operation against Israel:

“Israel Blasts White House Leaks on Syria Strikes:

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/173509

Officials angered by US’s exposing of Israel as being behind the attacks on Syrian weapons Thursday.”

I’m waiting for a ship load of American weapons bound for Egypt or some other Muslim entity to test the mettel of an Israeli torpedo.

That ought to get something going.

They took out some Russian SA-25 components and other types also - big blow to the Ruskies and their vaunted air anti-access systems. They were at the Damascus Airport and believed to be on the way to Hezbollah

Other targets struck were the 103rd brigade of the 4th Division, which is the Syrian president’s republican guard at Dimas.

The Russians are also pissed that their state-of-the-art, secret Intel site at Tel a-Harawas taken out by the so-called Syrian rebels. Seems that the +cough+ “rebels” managed to get most of the gear and sent it west ...
