partially built nuclear reactor that was years away from completion,

Now it's further away.

We know the Syrian government’s claim it was an empty building is false since if it was an easy site to restage as a baby milk factory or children’s hospital [or even a plain ol’ empty building] they would have called in the prop crew to stage it, brought in some victims and then brought in loads of reporters to film the “carnage.”

"The New York Times cited American officials as saying Israel's strike may have been intended as a signal to Iran and its nuclear aspirations.

Uh, the intention was aginst Syria.

“The Syrian reactor was years away from be able to produce the spent nuclear fuel that could be reprocessed into bomb-grade plutonium, the newspaper said”

But probably not from being used for cover to explain the presence of the Nuclear Material that came to Iraq via Africa courtesy of the Russian army's expedited shipping assistance. The WMD’s were there and someone needs to stand up and say so.

The "nuclear reactor" story being circulated this far after the raid is disinformation designed to quiet speculation.

The story does not account for the Israeli raid coming just a couple of days after a North Korean ship docked in a Syrian port and transfered what ever it was carrying to the bunker site.

Something was in that shipment that made it urgent that the Israeli's to act quickly. Reactor fuel or parts for a reactor to be completed in years did not demand that urgency.

Whatever happened, you cannot discount its possible relationship to the failed Syrian Scud missile warhead loading in late July that killed a couple of dozen Iranian and Syrian technicians with what is thought to be posgene or VX gas. Was that to be a strike on Israel?

My guess is that this might have been an attempt to take DPRK nuclear material and turn it into a warhead, probably a dirty bomb, and....give it another try.

The threats have been flying for several years - the backers of Assad and Ahmadinejad may be getting restless for an actual attempt to "wipe Israel off the map".

” Israel has been extremely secretive about the affair. It only recently relaxed censorship to allow Israel-based journalists to report that Israeli aircraft attacked a military target deep inside Syria. “ in which it should have, and should be in this country in our own military actions.

Neighborhood Bully ~ Bob Dylan


Well, the neighborhood bully, he’s just one man,
His enemies say he’s on their land.
They got him outnumbered about a million to one,
He got no place to escape to, no place to run.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully just lives to survive,
He’s criticized and condemned for being alive.
He’s not supposed to fight back, he’s supposed to have thick skin,
He’s supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully been driven out of every land,
He’s wandered the earth an exiled man.
Seen his family scattered, his people hounded and torn,
He’s always on trial for just being born.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, he knocked out a lynch mob, he was criticized,
Old women condemned him, said he should apologize.
Then he destroyed a bomb factory, nobody was glad.
The bombs were meant for him.
He was supposed to feel bad.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim
That he’ll live by the rules that the world makes for him,
‘Cause there’s a noose at his neck and a gun at his back
And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

He got no allies to really speak of.
What he gets he must pay for, he don’t get it out of love.
He buys obsolete weapons and he won’t be denied
But no one sends flesh and blood to fight by his side.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Well, he’s surrounded by pacifists who all want peace,
They pray for it nightly that the bloodshed must cease.
Now, they wouldn’t hurt a fly.
To hurt one they would weep.
They lay and they wait for this bully to fall asleep.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Every empire that’s enslaved him is gone,
Egypt and Rome, even the great Babylon.
He’s made a garden of paradise in the desert sand,
In bed with nobody, under no one’s command.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

Now his holiest books have been trampled upon,
No contract he signed was worth what it was written on.
He took the crumbs of the world and he turned it into wealth,
Took sickness and disease and he turned it into health.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

What’s anybody indebted to him for?
Nothin’, they say.
He just likes to cause war.
Pride and prejudice and superstition indeed,
They wait for this bully like a dog waits to feed.
He’s the neighborhood bully.

What has he done to wear so many scars?
Does he change the course of rivers?
Does he pollute the moon and stars?
Neighborhood bully, standing on the hill,
Running out the clock, time standing still,
Neighborhood bully.

This article cites the Source of Truth on earth—the NYT. It’s not final until Times of India also chimes in.
