Well..at least it's not Holloway;)

No doubt- the flooding in the mid-Atlantic is a story.

But impending war in the ME seems worth covering LIVE..

"We fired 14,987 SAM Missiles at the Jewish Jets.."

And that sure scared off all three of them.

Forgive me being behind the curve on this, but why would the IAF be in Syrian Airspace? I thought the problem was in Gaza on the Egyptian border. What did I miss?

Syria says its air defenses fired at Israeli jets flying over the president's house, forcing them to flee.

Translation: Assad woke up after frantically smashing all of the big pink spiders that had been chasing him, and told his air defense chief that the chief had heard Israeli jets ten feet above the president's roof if he knew what was good for him. ;)

I would hope they level about 3/4s of Syria, it would give the Palestinian animals a place to settle.

Syria had the same Russian tech (MIGs and SAMs) and manpower help back in '82 when the IAF shot down 80 Syrian planes and lost none of their own.

Can firing at a memory be considered firing at the planes themselves?

LOL!

You are correct, it is as though the media is blacking it out.

That is an act of war. Isreal has the right to fire back in self-defense

There was a story going around in the 80's, where the Syrians went to their Soviet allies and asked for some "surface to plane missiles".

The Soviets said, "we sold you some surface to air missiles last year".

The Syrians said, "no, this time we want surface to PLANE missiles".

The DOW is no doubt tumbling downward with this event taking place.

I know something about the Syrian Air Defense System.

It is a guy sitting in an easy chair watching CNN. When he sees a report of Israeli fighters flying overhead he rings a bell and they scramble the Piper Cubs. They tested out a Fox News version and it was faster but was not implemented due to a fear that they would be spoofed by Brit Hume.
