CNN reports that Israel, not the US as originally reported, is responsible for Sunday’s airstrike close to the Iraq-Syria border
ed note–In response to the comments and emails this website received in the wake of the report that the US had carried out airstrikes against pro-Assad military forces, just another glaring example as to why we often say here that before people allow themselves to get caught up in their favored brand of anti-Trump rapturism that they need to wait a few minutes and see what happens next.
On a more important note, what it also reveals is the level to which Israel is operating behind the scenes in carrying out these strikes and in trying to pin it on the US as a means of forcing the Syrians/Iranians/Russians/Hezbollah into retaliating and thus forcing Trump’s hand militarily as means of preventing the scaledown/withdrawal of US forces which he recently promised.
“A commander in the military alliance backing Syrian President Bashar Assad also told Reuters that drones, “probably American,” had bombed positions of Iraqi factions between al-Bukamal and Tanf and Syrian military positions.”
…PROBABLY AMERICAN? An unidentified “commander” in the “military alliance” backing Assad told Reuters. So we have hot steaming horse manure published by Reuters (Jewish owned since the 1850s) and no one to counter it until this major Jacques chimed in how many days later?
They will do anything to get the war they want….this will only escalate from here. They always have a time line and they don’t like having to change it. Is there anyone, or are there any number of people in the U.S. military who can thwart these lunatics and put them out of commission (no pun intended) ?? They need to be put down, permanently.
yes, and the attack was on the eastern, euphrates side, where some us bases straddle the syria-iraq border, which tells me that there is a level of coordination between the rogue elements in the us army and idf, both actively working to undermine trump – was mattis aware of this coordination?
without it, no way would israel have dared to pull this stunt on its own.
i furthermore claim that the intended target was not syria and assad but TRUMP.
think about it: if the us forces had felt the need for some military action in their immediate neighborhood, would they have squealed for jews’ help, as if they don’t have resources to deal with it on their own?

Why would U.S. forces attack an Iraqi militia post?
And then we also have this today — “the future is in the skies” according to Ataturk, way back when. The Young Turks were a Jooish creation to dismantle the Ottoman Empire.
