UK Sunday Times have an interesting story about Israel planning to attack Syria soon.
Unfortunately, they seem to think I should pay them money on a regular basis in order for me to read this particular story. As I have no intention of doing that, I have to trust Israeli sources who have read the story, with or without paying. What the story apparently says is that Israel has threatened to attack military targets in Syria the next time Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed militia in southern Lebanon, strikes inside its territory. they say the IDF is planning a massive bombing from the air, the destruction of a whole Syrian regiment, including 100 tanks, followed immediately by an artillery attack.
