Israel Says Syria Gave Missiles to Hezbollah

JERUSALEM — Israeli officials say that Syria has delivered accurate long-distance Scud missiles to the Lebanese group Hezbollah, placing Israeli cities deep in its heartland, including Tel Aviv, within range.

The officials added that the delivery of the missiles — strongly denied by Syria and yet to be confirmed by sources outside of Israel — would change the strategic balance in the area and increase the risk of war.

The issue was raised by President Shimon Peres, who during a visit to Paris told journalists earlier this week, “Syria claims that it wants peace, while simultaneously delivering Scud missiles to Hezbollah, which is constantly threatening the security of the State of Israel.” He added, after meeting with the French prime minister, Francois Fillon, that Syria was playing “a double game.” Mr. Fillon, who was recently in the Syrian capital of Damascus, had told Mr. Peres that the government of President Bashar el-Assad wanted peace with Israel.

Israel!

Don't trust Obama...he is your sworn enemy.

Chances are good that he is Apollyon, also known as Abaddon...the destroyer. And that isn't "the destroyer of recyclable garbage or lawn clippings."

Some increasingly believe he is the prophesied "destroyer of Israel."

This is not a risk you can take!

Too bad Israel couldn't have "intercepted" these missiles.I'm sure they would have if they could.

Puts every major population center and Dimonda in the cross hairs.

"commander zero", along with their other mohammaden enemies, is pushing them into a corner and forcing them to act.

It’s been a few years since the IDF last buzzed Boy Assad’s house with F-16s while the Syrian air defenses impotently watched. Could be time for another few passes. ...just as a reminder.

Here’s what Netanyahu should do. Give Syria one month to get their Scuds back into Syria or Damascus will be attacked at a time of Israel’s choosing. We start counting today, 30...
