When we reported yesterday [6]that following "recurring" "provocations" by the Syrian military, which is so very confused who it wants to declare war on first - NATO member Turkey, or best US friend Israel, it is pressing on both fronts, even as it continues to be torn by CIA funded, and Al Qaeda stoked civil war, which saw Israel launch a missile into Syrian territory for the first time since 1973,we said, "It goes without saying that this is merely the first proverbial shot across the bow, or in this case the DMZ. Much more to follow, until finally the UN rules, and the fair and objective media backs it, that the time to invade liberate Syria has come." Sure enough, less than 24 hours later...

And again - the escalation will continue until flip flops operating out of Syria, with or without local mistresses, blow up enough holes in Israel territory that the retaliation against this latest evil provocateur is inevitable, and Israel decides to launch a defensive offensive war, which hopefully sadly will also drag Iran into it as well.
In other news, we are still waiting to hear how China and Russia are taking to this latest military development.
