Israeli officials: U.S. must strike in Syria
jpost.com ^ | April 8, 2018 | Gil Hoffman

The United States must attack the regime of Bashar Assad in Syria in response to the regime chemical gas strike on the Syrian town Douma that killed more than 70 people, Strategic Affairs and Public Security Minister Gilad Erdan said Sunday.

Speaking on Army Radio, Erdan, who is Netanyahu’s number two in Likud, said he hoped US military action against the Assad regime would be taken again, as it was when the regime used chemical weapons against its people in the past.

“The shocking attack shows the incredible international hypocrisy of the international community focusing on Israel confronting the terrorist organization Hamas that is sending civilians to our [border] fence, when dozens are being killed in Syria every day,” Erdan said. “It shows the need for strengthening the presence of Americans and other international forces, because without them the genocide we are seeing will only intensify.”

If Israel wants to Strike Syria for it, then let Israel do it. Syria does not impose an imminent national threat to the United States.

I would be 1000 to 1 this was done by the John McCain’s Jihadists in order to keep the USA from withdrawing troops our of Syria as President Trump said he would do last week.

The timing is quite remarkable for the Jihadists and the Globalists who have been pushing for was in Syria since 2011.

Sorry I smell a false flag and it stinks bad.

I say, destroy ISIS, arm the Kurds and then get the hell out.

There is a matter of proof just like the last time we heard this lie. I like israel. I understand the kurds. There is no proof what so ever that Assad, after he and Russia have destroyed isis, would gas his own people! For what . purpose? Dont assume anything from these facts. They tell us nothing. There are strong forces to get us to pay for attacking Assad with out dead bodies and our printed money. Those forces do not include the sovereign country of Syria. Trump said we are leaving “soon”. Get the hell out and do not not fall for this false flag gas attack when Syria has absolutely no gas to use!!!

If Trump is pulling our troops out of Syria, it’s to get them out of the bombing target zone!!!

If Israel is so damn upset about this, let them attack Syria themselves ... it’s really none of our business now that ISIS has been destroyed ...

“Trump says he wants out of Syria.. then a chemical attack. Come on Trump you can’t see through this bs?”

indeed. pretty obvious this was a deliberate setup to provoke Trump, knowing the one and only time he went after Assad was after a chemical attack early in Trump’s Presidency ...

OK boss, we’ll get right on it.

Plenty more young deplorables to sacrifice for you.

Trump trust the same Intel that says he was colluding with Putin to steal the election. Silly. They are lying, Trump is blinded by military power and now he feels he must act. Show your proof Trump, show your proof. Assad seems to always wait until he has absolutely no benefit of using chemical weapons to use them.

Israel, you do it. We have lost enough blood in the Middle East.

Anything to keep this going is for nefarious purposes.

The US will act.
Israel is correct. we have a defense agreement with Israel. And we have a stated policy to deal with Syria relative to chemical weapons.

Soldiers won’t be used. We will be getting out. But it will rain hell

So we have to be for war. Is that correct? We have no verification yet who used “gas”.

Thanks, but no thanks. You first, Israel. Of course we’ll back you up. With words of support for your actions. Which is what you’ve always offered whenever we’ve required assistance.

"Israel, you do it. We have lost enough blood in the Middle East. Anything to keep this going is for nefarious purposes."

Correct. There ARE NO WHITE HATS in the Mideast, including the US and Israel.

The US generals love their little wars. Keeps the funding coming, keeps the troops keen (and bleeding) and keeps the staff officers rotating through their "combat commands" and those regular promotions.

The Israelis much prefer we were close at hand: saves them money, equipment and lives defending an area which is overwhelmingly their turf.

The muzzies in the area are forever changing sides and allegiances. i trust none of them.

The timing is a bit suspect with Assad winning and having no good reason to resort to chemical weapons.

The president has publicly stated he wants us out of there and so do do a majority of Americans I believe. Just do it, go, be gone.

A reasonable, truthful post. Thank you.

I honestly can’t believe the “We Love War” posts from the neo-con McCainiacs on FR. How stupid can people be?

Trump announces that he wants to pull our troops out of Syria. Shortly after, “Assad” uses chemical weapons. How convenient! (Sarcasm)

How stupid can people be? If Israel wants to dismantle the secular Syrian government then Israel can do it themselves, without our help.

Why in the hell are so many neo-con morons so desperate to start WWIII??

Sorry for my language but I’m angry, frustrated and terrified.

I am not anew-con but I do love war when necessary, like we should have had in Iran instead of Iraq. I agree syria has been mistake all along. Had we done nothing it might be an ISIS country, but so what, it isn’t a client of the uS and never was. If Iran came correct syria and russia can sleep together in peace.

If you think war with Iran would be sensible, you should probably go look at a map. And ask some Iraqis what it’s like fighting them.

War with Iran would be dumb.

many wars are dumb. Yes i supported war against Iran and still do. The worst terrorist state in the world according to two democrat administrations, religious fanatics developing an atom bomb, and threatening to obliterate our best ally, And I supported Israel attacking them when Obama didn’t support them, as they had been using the Pakistani science to develop a nuke program.

When they put a bomb on a ship and float it into NY harbor and Tel Aviv maybe you will change your mind.
