Syria: Israel Threatens to Destroy Syrian Air Defence ‘Without the Slightest Hesitation’
21st Century Wire says.
Israeli Defence Minister Avigdor Lieberman recently said that “The next time the Syrians use their air defence systems against our planes we will destroy them without the slightest hesitation.“
Israel has been largely unaffected by the war on Syria yet this sabre rattling rhetoric only serves to dangerously conflagrate a continued tension in the region where we have full skies in Syria between Russian and Assad forces, not to mention uninvited United States additions in order to combat Daesh.
Liberman, no stranger to controversial remarks, said in Tel Aviv in January that in the next war in the Gaza Strip, the IDF will go “full force” until Hamas “raises a white flag,”

Most Israeli air strikes in Syrian territory over the last few years were aimed at preventing weapons from being smuggled to the Hezbollah, which fights alongside Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s regime against rebel forces.
While the Israel Defence Force (IDF) does not comment on the nature of its operations, Hezbollah, like Iran, is committed to the destruction of the Jewish state.
In highly unusual comments confirming the operation, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said: “Our policy is very consistent. When we identify attempts to transfer advanced weapons to the Hezbollah, and we have the intelligence and the operational capability, we act to prevent that. That is what was and that is what will be…”
