Syrian rebels destroy Assad’s radar station facing Israel

Well...

it's not like it did them that much good.

Since the 73 war Israel has shot down a multitude of Syrian aircraft with few losses.

Flies just about anywhere it wants in Syria including over Assad's palace.

And had no trouble taking out their nuclear facility.

Syrian rebels destroy Assad’s radar station facing Israel

Syrian rebels did it???

More like Israel BlackOps preparing for Iran.

:Hebrewcoin: It sure looks like somethings in the wind.

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report November 26, 2012, 9:05 PM

Syrian rebels captured Marj al-Sultan military base in a resounding blow to the combat capabilities of Bashar Assad’s army against external enemies, Syrian rebels destroyed their most important electronic warning radar station facing Israel – M-1 – Monday, Nov. 26, debkafile reports exclusively from its military sources.

This Russian-built station monitored Israeli warplanes' takeoff and landing activities at air bases in the Negev and Hatzerim in the south and tracked them up to the Syrian border. The facility was designed to guide Syrian missiles targeting any point on the Israeli map, in sync with air defense facilities south of Damascus and on the Golan Heights.

The radar’s range also covered naval movements in Mediterranean waters off the shores of Israel and Lebanon....

....It has therefore crippled, though not completely dismantled, Bashar Assad’s ability to got to war against Israel, Jordan or Saudi Arabia.
M-1 radar also swept all parts of Jordan and northern Saudi Arabia where the important Tabuk air base is situated. Deployed there in addition to the Saudi Air Force are French fighter-bombers ready to go to war against Syria.
M-1 also relayed current data on Israeli military movements to Hizballah and would have been a vital source of intelligence in a potential Lebanese Shiites offensive against the Jewish state.

The Syrian ruler and his spokesmen have frequently threatened since the eruption of the popular insurrection that if Assad had his back to the wall, the entire Middle East would go up in flames, especially Israel.....

.... the Assad regime still retains two key radar stations: M-2 in Shanshar south of Homs, which covers central and northern Syria; and M-3 near Latakia which keeps an eye on the northern region up to the Turkish border and the eastern Mediterranean up to Cyprus.

Yup, I think it's all about Iran, good point Judethz !

It will give our boys a little more time and every precious second counts !

So where do you guys think this ends? I mean your ideal situation, what will the ME look like in ten years time?

If all out war breaks out and Hussein does not help Israel...

this is how the ME will look in 10-100-1000 years time !

Cos make no mistake about it, if all the muslim nations gang up on Israel and the muslim-in-chief doesn't help...Israel will nuke each and every one of them if its very existence is threatened !
