UNREPORTED IN WESTERN MEDIA: Israel is attacking Syria

THIS is the reality of what is happening in the Middle East. Within an hour of Trump’s speech Israeli jets were hitting Iranian positions and for the first time the Syrians hit back knocking down 2 jets.

Yet there has been ABSOLUTE SILENCE on this in the western media, except for segments on TV that repeat an Israeli propaganda line that they are preparing for an attack by Iran.



They have neglected to report that the Israelis have attacked the Iranians in Syria and so the Iranians would be justified in a counter-attack.

But if you blacklist reporting on events that happen between say the “chemical attacks” in Douma and the airstrikes 2 weeks ago, or between then and now you can make it LOOK as if the Iranians are the aggressor.



Syria Blames Israel for Strike Near Damascus; Target Was Iranian Missiles Aimed at Israel


We have seen zero “proof” of an imminent Iranian strike. Such “evidence” would no doubt be worth as much as Bibi’s latest speech, or British “evidence” on Novichok.

If (and when) the Iranians strike back it will be 100% justified.

What I am guessing is that the Iranians ARE preparing (rather than being sitting ducks) but in the meantime they are exercising amazing restraint.

If there is no response (other than an imminent one to the airstrikes) then there is no World War 3.

*** BULLETIN *** FULL WAR ALERT "" ISRAEL ORDERS OPENING OF BOMB SHELTERS

!!! MISSILE LAUNCH !!!  MISSILE LAUNCH !!! 

Syrian air defenses engaging Israeli missiles launched from aircraft over Lebanon . . . Hostilities have commenced. (See 3:50 PM update at bottom)


UPDATE 3:00 PM EDT -- Israel Defense Force moves to FULL WAR ALERT.
UPDATE: 2:50 PM EDT -- ISRAEL ORDERS OPENING OF BOMB SHELTERS; DETECTING SUSPICIOUS IRANIAN MILITARY ACTIVITY INSIDE SYRIA.
A trusted source inside Israel is reporting to me that as of 9:30 AM eastern US time Tuesday, the United States, United Kingdom and France are once again deploying fighter jets and Bombers around Syria.
It is __believed__ that this deployment coincides with whatever announcement President Trump intends to make at 2:00 PM today from the White House regarding the Iran nuclear deal.
There is now widespread rumor-mongering and Scuttlebutt in the halls of governments worldwide, that Trump plans to say the Iran nuclear deal is cancelled because Israeli evidence shows Iran LIED throughout the entire process.  Trump is expected to say "A deal based on deliberate lies cannot be an actual deal."
The rumors are that once Trump makes this announcement, a bombing campaign of terrible magnitude will begin by the US, UK and France, targeting all Iranian assets (both regular army troops and proxies) throughout Syria.  The rumors further say the bombing campaign will not cease until ALL Iranian assets are either destroyed or dead.
It is not known what role Russia and its advanced fighters, bombers and anti-aircraft defenses will play in any such action.  If Russia sits by and does nothing, they will look like fools or weaklings.  If Russia steps-up and defends Syria, it means war immediately.
If the rumors and Scuttlebutt are true, today is shaping-up to be quite a day.   Trouble is, I CANNOT CONFIRM the rumors or scuttlebutt.  Repeat: I CANNOT CONFIRM any of this.
Stay tuned.
Updates to appear below . . .  check back.

UPDATE 10:52 AM EDT --


President Trump had a phone call with French President Macron at 10:00 EDT today.  Within minutes of that call ending, word began leaking in Europe that Trump is pulling the U.S. out of the Iran nuclear deal.   More leaks claim Trump also plans to impose new economic sanctions upon Iran.

BREAKING: Trump will pull United States out of Iran nuclear deal, according to European official.



UPDATE 11:21 AM EDT --


I am now able to POSITIVELY CONFIRM very large movements of US, UK and French military assets into the Syria area over the last 24 hours.  Squadrons of US warplanes and advanced surveillance drones have been working around the clock to track the slightest military movements around Syria and along Lebanese Mediterranean shores. In the last few hours Britain transferred another squadron of advanced Typhoon fighter jets to the Middle East, with France adding Rafale and Mirage 2000 jets. Some of these flights reached their forward positions through Israeli air space.

UPDATE 11:32 AM EDT --


I can now POSITIVELY CONFIRM multiple B-52's took off from Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean earlier today.  Destination UNKNOWN.
If . . . . and this is total, unconfirmed, speculation . . .  those planes were heading to Syria, the air distance is 3,681 miles to Damascus.  B-52's can fly at slightly over 600 MPH, meaning a flight time of about 6 hours.  The map below lays out the locations:


The standard loadout for the B-52 includes eight AGM-84 Harpoon missiles, four AGM-142 Raptor missiles, 51 500-pound bombs, 30 1,000-pound bombs, 20 AGM-86C conventional air-launched cruise missiles (CALCM), 12 joint stand-off weapons (JSOW), 12 joint direct-attack munitions (JDAM), and 16 wind-corrected munitions.  (Updates continue beneath ad)

INTEL: According to my former colleagues in the US Intelligence Community, the Israeli Air Force is UNABLE to operate their version of the F-35 to carry out strikes against Iran itself.  In the event that the Iranian Republican Guard launch a ballistic missile attack upon Tel Aviv, the Israeli government has AUTHORIZED retaliatory launches of Israeli "Jericho III" medium range ballistic missiles, targeting Tehran and, specifically, Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei's residence in Tehran!

UPDATE 8:35 PM EDT --


Hezbollah has called-up all military reserves in southern Lebanon as a result of today's Israeli jet and missile attack against Iranians inside Syria.  It is widely estimated that Hezbollah has between 35,000 and 50,000 reserve fighters.  The fact they are all being called-up indicates a major confrontation is now in-motion in the Middle East.
