I'm pretty sure that I detected at least one Iranian drone right in this thread...

I would really, really, really hate to be a member of the crew operating the Syrian SAM or Triple A system that brought down the Israeli F-16. Those guys are the walking dead. By the time the IDF is done with them, there won't be anything left but elbows and toenails.

Wow, I guess that report of the F-16 going down is true. Likely a two seater F-16I, usually reserved for strike missions. SA-5's aren't exactly made to intercept fighters, so I wonder what in Syria's arsenal took a shot..

Is Israel at war with Syria?

Because I know what the US reaction would be if another country penetrated our airspace and hit a target without a declaration of war... I think the last time someone did that was Pearl Harbor.

Declaration of war? What is this,1941?

Your analogy sucks. Now,if the US was sponsoring a terrorist group in Greenland to launch rockets at Canada and Canada decided to strike the rocket stockpiles inside the US then there would be an equivalent situation.

And there's something wrong with the thought of censoring posts that espouse the murder of Americans on a patriotic American gun forum? You're clearly here to push an agenda by even making that comparison.

You and your ilk infect these threads. This is the third one in the last few days along with others im sure I haven't seen. There was absolutely no reason to say what you origonally did about "violating airspace". All that was intended to do was stir the pot and instigate a conversation about regional ME politics. Again, not the intent or purpose of the thread.

You're just here to push an agenda. You push it even when there's no reason to. Case in point your original dumbass comment and subsequent defense of said dumbass comment by referencing posts espousing dead American soldiers.

Lets say there were 100 people in your little town. You're the mayor. Your faction represents a whopping 15% of the towns population, yet you've managed to remain in power because of old political wrangling. Meanwhile, 70 of the towns people despised your leadership so badly they know want you dead.

Tell me how you and your 15 are the best option for your towns 100. In what universe is that going to work?

Hint, benevolent dictators work when they represent the majority, not the tiny minority.

That's debatable, personally I don't believe in Democracy.

I certainly don't believe in Democracy in the Middle East.

So with that in mind, I do exactly what Assad is doing to keep myself from being Quaddafi or Saddam.

It did work, and it was a better more stable region when it was Assad, Nasser, Quaddafi and Saddam than it is now.
