If attacked by Israel Syria permitted under new pact
If attacked by Israel Syria permitted under new pact with Lebanon to use Lebanese airspace and transfer troops into Lebanon without prior notice. Formula agreed in meeting between Syrian and Lebanese chiefs of staff.

1. Hmmmm......It's getting dicey!!!
I do feel that Sharon and bush have been egging and taunting
them on to start their artificial holy crusade!!!

It has been admirable and fascinating how all these
Islamic countries have held back.

But how long will it last?

5. So says Debka, and I find it only reliable for knowing what
Edited on Fri Oct-31-03 12:41 AM by Minstrel Boy
Israeli intelligence wants us to know. Which is useful in its own right, but I don't take it at face value.

The way I interpret this: Sharon is laying the groundwork for justifying striking Lebanon in a potential future conflict with Syria.

6. Moving to GD
As a general rule, Debka is not a source that is considered credible enough to qualify for posting in the Latest Breaking News Forum.

Please continue this discussion here in its new General Discussion Forum location.

Thanks!

7. Syria said
that they might activate Hezbollah if Israel keeps it up. This is going to get really scary.

9. it is not Syria's property to "activate"
Edited on Fri Oct-31-03 01:24 AM by Aidoneus
Hizbullah is a Lebanese political movement that is now and has been fully active for years previous. If the Israelis keep up their aggressive behavior towards Lebanon and Syria things may indeed get ugly, for they will not take these hostile moves with passivity.

That aside, very cool pictures in your sig.

11. I am locking this thread
Just because Debka is not "specifically" disallowed in the General Rules doesn't make it any less suspect as an allowable source. You will note in the General rules that owners of this website have not listed any sites at all.

I am also locking this thread because the nature of its content belongs in the I/P forum and there it will be locked anyway because of the source.

Thank you for your understanding.
