Sounds like Israel would be perfectly justified hitting staging areas within Syria for these transports. Why are we and Israel so timid about hitting Syria for its support of terrorists both in Lebanon and Iraq??? How many Americans have to die in order to preserve Syria's well-being??

Timid indeed. That supposed 72-hour ultimatum warning of "disastrous consequences" to Syria expired about 12 hours ago; no disaster yet...

Assad is much better than a leader that would go along with Iran, so Israel is letting him get away with anything. /sarc
To: jiggyboy
Can you believe these @ssholes. Are they crazy? Israel's immediate and explicit intent is to get their soldiers back. If Syria pulls them into war they, Syria, will be bombed back to the stone age.
Iran will not come to thier aid.
Israel needs to make it perfectly clear to Syria that if this continues they will bear the responsibility.

Probably resulting in the deaths of more civilian truck drivers and crews.

Syria has an aggressive and secure rocket-based chemical and perhaps biological missile deterrent system.
Hitting anything in Syria would constitute a major escalation, and may not be advisable at this juncture.

So Syria does to Lebanon what it does to Iraq, where we allow them to support terrorists who kill Americans but the Israelis - when it comes to Lebanon - are at least trying to turn off the pipeline. I wish we were as concerned with the fate of Americans being killed by Syrian-supported terrorists as the Israelis are about Syrian logistic support to Hizbullah.

You could ask the same thing about hte staging areas in Syria and Iran for the stuff that comes into Iraq. For some reason, the US has decided to let those two off the hook. I can't explain it. And I'd think Israel is trying not to ignite "the big one". Goin after Syria is going all in, so to speak. This is just the furst round and I think they're waiting to see what the river brings

That would be considered escalation and might cause public opinion (molded by MSM) to engage in twarting Israel's plans.
Best to wipe out Hezbollah in Lebanon. Once that is complete and the threat is eliminated, go to their sources...Syria and the other gangsters.

That has to be a typo, 20mm is less than an inch.

I think it's supposed to be 20cm.
To: sionnsar
Probably 20 centimeters; otherwise, they would be raining "cigar rockets" down on Israel.
To: MikeA
The only way this is gonna end is to take down the Syrian regime.
