Tensions are building again in the holyland...
--------------------------

Syrian officials reported Thursday afternoon that at around 1 a.m., four or five IAF aircraft broke the sound barrier and dropped fuel tanks over deserted areas in northern Syria, along its border with Turkey. Witnesses said the incident occurred in the Abyad area.

A Syrian military spokesman said that Syrian air defenses then opened fire on the IAF aircraft.

"The Israeli enemy aircraft infiltrated the Arab Syrian territory through the northern border, coming from the Mediterranean, heading toward the eastern region, breaking the sound barrier," the spokesman said. "Air defense units confronted them and forced them to leave. We warn the Israeli enemy government against this flagrant aggressive act, and retain the right to respond in an appropriate way."

The incident came as Syria was pursuing an unprecedented arms buildup and amid growing fears of an impending war. Since the Second Lebanon War, Military Intelligence has warned that while Syria is not really interested in an armed conflict with Israel, a lack of communication between the two countries could cause a war to erupt if a diplomatic resolution were not reached beforehand.

Both the Prime Minister's Office and the Foreign Ministry maintained a complete blackout on any information relating to the incident. Officials declined to answer queries either on or off the record, and would only repeat the IDF Spokesman's Office response on the matter that it was "not accustomed to responding to such reports."

did you know in Isreal military walks on peoples roofs for "security" even in the middle of teh night!

anyhow- for the mideast to be calm for 4 years- per Iraq- is a lifetime- as historically tensions are about the most extreem on teh planet.

BTW- it is a serious news piece. However- the news is fixated on the senotiors lewd bathroom bust and that he might not resign after all.

he sounds like a flaming queen when he bitches how he was entrapped/mislead/set up. he probaly signed a law that made it as ruff as it is.

for teh record- most modern bathrooms are now designed to discourage casual sex. larger partitions. each year it gets worse. yet- i have seen a screw ball profusely masterbating on teh Ohio turnpike rest room!!

shake it once- thats fine. 2 is fine. 3 is masterbation???

here yet another poor wife has to endure the agony of an assinine situation.

Is "Syria fires at Isreali aircraft" a new euphemism for guys blowing each other in airport restrooms?
