Yes I am!

The target was the Ein Sahab camp, which is an Islamic Jihad training base.

So apparently there are no empty buildings to bomb in the Gaza Strip and West Bank, so they bomb empty buildings in Syria. Ah well.

I think the story just broke and the other news site haven't had time to post their stories yet. While Haaretz Daily might have its slant, its quite another thing to make up an official statement by the Israeli Defense Force.

Interesting indeed...

When USA chickens out it's good to see Israel still has some fighting spirit!

Hm so what is the diplomatic status Israel vs Syria? I mean officially ... was it some sort of peace treaty, or a cease fire? Cant remember...

Cease fire.

So did Israel break the cease fire? Or do they claim it was broken (by the other side...) anyway?

Yep, maybe some diplomatic Protests flyng around.
After all, although the Attack took place on Syrian soil, it wasn´t aimed directly at Syria. Not enough to restart a war over it

It looks like the IDF was also making a statement to Syria about their military superiority with the attack.

DanielIXY: I think (not sure) that the position is that if they fund terrorists who go into Israel, Syria isn't keeping the cease-fire in the first place [this is what sounds logical here, but I don't really know the details of the thing].

If Syria would be in a position to attack Israel, militarily, it would. Luckily, they're not.


Seriously, It's a ****ing stupid clueless action. Pro'lly due to the fact that the army cannot retaliate immideately now, since It's Yom Kippur here, and there are very few ground forces. Many people were released home on friday only to return on thursday.

believe me, elijah, a war won't ensue. Noone wants a real war. The 'offended' side, the Syrians, the least, since they'll be wiped, even now.

These people are hardly the bastions of rationality though.

Islamic Jihad is sure to hit back too. I wouldn't be going to any bars in Tel Aviv for the next fortnight .

Nah, as everyone said, it won;t lead to anything besides a possible condemnation of Israel at the UNSC, unless the US decides to veto, for which the US will take the PR hit. but it won;t do **** about anything else. The Syrian's aren't going to let one attack all of a sudden scare them away, the Pals will keep going..it's a publicity stunt to make Arik look like his on top of more than a chicken sandwich.

Syrians are saying that they will excersise restraint in their response (big suprise). IDF is showing an undated video that is supposedly of the camp showing large arms caches
