Abu Wabu

The Times Online is reporting that Israel bombed Syria's nuclear installations last week after the Optometrist Of Damascus bought some or all of DPRK's now-surplus materiele. If true, the story speaks volumes about Assad's misunderestimation of the sons of dogs and pigs- especially them flyin' ones:

IT was just after midnight when the 69th Squadron of Israeli F15Is crossed the Syrian coast-line. On the ground, Syria’s formidable air defences went dead. An audacious raid on a Syrian target 50 miles from the Iraqi border was under way.

At a rendezvous point on the ground, a Shaldag air force commando team was waiting to direct their laser beams at the target for the approaching jets. The team had arrived a day earlier, taking up position near a large underground depot. Soon the bunkers were in flames.

Ten days after the jets reached home, their mission was the focus of intense speculation this weekend amid claims that Israel believed it had destroyed a cache of nuclear materials from North Korea.

The Israeli government was not saying. “The security sources and IDF [Israeli Defence Forces] soldiers are demonstrating unusual courage,” said Ehud Olmert, the prime minister. “We naturally cannot always show the public our cards.”

Assad is demurring as well, which probably means he just had his ass handed to him by the Good Guys.

Idiots will cry.
