Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Israel’s enemies from trying to attack the Jewish State Tuesday, hours after the IDF struck targets in Syria.

“We hit a cell and now we hit the dispatchers," the prime minister said. "We will do what is necessary in order to defend ourselves. I suggest to all of them, including Hezbollah, to consider this. These are not vain words; they have the weight of the State of Israel and the IDF behind them and this should be taken seriously.” Netanyahu had just completed a tour of the IDF Home Front Command headquarters in Ramla along with Defense Minister Benny Gantz, who warned in an interview with Ynet News that while the country is not looking for an escalation, Israel will respond to any actions taken against it.

"No one should try us. We won't allow [Syrian President Bashar] Assad to facilitate terror actions against the State of Israel, we won't allow Iran to open a branch of terror in Syria," said Gantz. "We will act against this. Wherever someone acts against the State of Israel, the State of Israel will respond. We're not looking for an escalation."

Mossad is awesome

[Wuli]

Is Israel responsible for the bombing in Syria.

So, likely Iran was trying to get back at Israel after being ‘beat up’ at home for the last three months. So they shipped a bunch of explosives to Beirut?

Lebanon.

I said 'Bud Light'

Lebanon stockpiles 2750 metric tons of ammonium nitrate right in the capital -- the Lebanese can now say, we have met the enemy, and he is us.

The story I heard is that the place that went BOOM was a permanent storage place for ammonium nitrate for 6 years. Not Anymore:...haw haw

Interesting - I wonder if Mossad discovered it by human intelligence, or they had sensors that detected the storage facility - I would think that stuff gives off quite a distinctive chemical trail

Hizb'allah has been spending the past few years fighting the Sunnis under the Turkish leadership.And the Sunni-Wahhabbi Islamic state apologized for inadvertently firing on Israeli soldiers - Netanyahu is not playing a sensible war allying with Sunni Wahhabbis
