Assad would hit Tel Aviv if NATO strikes Syria, report says
Fars: Assad tells Turkish foreign minister he will launch missiles against Tel Aviv if NATO attacked Syria • He also reportedly says he will instruct Hezbollah to launch missiles against Israel as well • Russia rejects proposal submitted to Security Council by EU and U.S. calling for sanctions against Syria
I can’t think of much worse for Israel than telling the Jew haters in Europe that all they have to do to flatten Tel Aviv is drop a couple of cheap bombs on Damascus! Yikes. I think I’ll be cleaning up the bomb shelter at home tonight.
Update: Israel’s answer!
The government sent a message to Syrian President Bashar Assad in recent days, warning him that if he started a war with the Jewish state in order to divert attention from domestic problems, Israel will target him personally, Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida reported on Tuesday.
Ne ne na ne ne! so there!
I'm a little surprised by the blase' attitude the Israeli press has exhibited in response to these saber-rattling comments directed toward Israel by Assad. It seems like the Israeli attitude is "ho hum, this jerk is threatening us again. Let's go out for deli."
Basically if we got all upset every time an Arab threatened us we'd have no time to win Nobel prizes.
Assad will be able to put his opthomology degree to good use after Israel pokes his other eye with a stick.
