The Washington Post<\/a> reports that Syria has threatened Israel with a declaration of war after Israel struck a military and a research facility ostensibly to prevent missiles from falling into the hands of Hezbollah;<\/p>\n

The airstrikes targeted Fateh-110 missiles, which have precision guidance systems and may have been destined for the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah, the official said.<\/p>\n

Although it was unclear whether Assad\u2019s government would pursue direct military retaliation, the Syrian Foreign Ministry said the attack proved that Israel is collaborating with Syrian rebels.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Israeli attack on military sites in Syria is proof that there is communication between Israel and the terrorist groups who take their orders from al-Qaeda,\u201d the ministry said in a statement broadcast on state television. The government uses the blanket term \u201cterrorists\u201d to refer to its opponents, who range from secular activists to militants linked to al-Qaeda.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think at this point that the Assad regime can ill-afford opening another front in their war to survive. <\/p>\n

Reuters<\/a> reports that Iran is calling for a regional response to Israel’s airstrikes on Syria;<\/p>\n

Tehran on Sunday denied the attack was aimed at “its missiles destined for Hezbollah resistance fighters in Lebanon,” according to the Islamic state’s English-language Press TV.<\/p>\n

Iran has supported its ally Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in his efforts to suppress a rebellion that has raged for more than two years and which Tehran and Damascus say is being waged by Western-backed “terrorists”.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Well, Iran has been poking the Iraeli bear long enough that they should figure they might be the next target of the Israeli air force. They should sit down and sit up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
