If it weren't for the utter hatred that people have for Jews, the actions of Syria in this current conflict would seal Syria's fate as a criminal regime. Unfortunately, those standing against Israel aren't interested in facts or justice. They just want to kill Jews.

The IAF has reported repeatedly destroying convoys of Syrian army transports carrying ammunition and rockets to Hizbullah in Lebanon. The rockets belong to the Syrian army and are not the kind found on the open arms market, so there is no doubt that it is Syria's arms being used by Hizbullah in Lebanon.

“These are rockets that belong to the Syrian army. You can’t find them in the Damascus market, and the Syrian government is responsible for this smuggling,” IDF Operations Branch Head Major General Gadi Eisenkot said.

There is just no way that the Syrian army and the Syrian government could be unaware that their supplies are being smuggled to Hizbullah. This means that the Syrians are directly aiding Hizbullah in their goal of killing Israeli civilians despite the fact that Syria has not been targeted in this conflict.

As Eisenkot reminded the media...

“We are not operating against Syria or the Lebanese army.”

And more's the pity. I believe Israel should send a few well placed air assaults right into al Assad's palaces, hopefully killing many of his cabinet members if not the scheming, racist, whelp of a dictator himself.

And here is where the international community fails in their claims of wanting "peace" in the region. Assad is supplying Hizbullah directly. He is involving himself in a conflict that really does not directly affect his people. If the international community truly wanted peace those now standing against Israel would instead be railing against Syria at the top of their lungs.

But what are we getting instead?

Israel should "restrain" herself. A UN "peace keeping" mission should step in and separate the sides... as if we were warning some unruly kids in the back seat of the family sedan on that Summer vacation drive. "Don't make me separate you two kids!", says the exasperated Father.

Only, Syria is not an unruly child. It is a racist, hate-mongering, Muslim country dead set on killing every Jew it can find.

Further, the USA should support and sanction every bomb Israel sends to Syria, Lebanon and Iran.

Israel, my support is yours. Destroy the groups that are murdering your children and have been for decades. May their countries run red with the blood of terrorists and their supporters.
