It?s being reported as everything from a ?fireworks display malfunction? to a victory for the ?freedom fighters in Syria? but at this point, I don?t really know what to make of it.
Apparently there has been a massive explosion near Homs in Syria preceded by several other explosions and a fire.
?At least 22 people, including civilians, were killed and dozens wounded, some seriously, when an ammunitions depot blew up in the pro-regime Wadi al-Zahab district after rocket fire, most probably by rebels,? the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.?? AFP
There is a home video of the smoke and the explosion at the end of this article.
It?s important to note that SANA is saying the casualty reports are inflated to give the terrorists a morale boost after loosing so much ground recently to the government. But they do admit 4 civilians were killed.
Early reports were that it was mortar fire from the terrorists.
The? size of the explosion cannot be explained by RPGs or the random rocket a CIA terrorist would have on them. It was massive (again, video below).
It would be like the Israelis to take advantage of a distraction like the Snowden story to launch an attack on another country. They do it quite often, the best example being back in 2008 when they attacked Gaza on our election day here in the states.
And when Israel strikes someone pre-emptively, turns out they don?t usually admit it later unless they are forced to:
? Israel has a longstanding policy of not acknowledging pre-emptive military strikes.? New York Times
Ironically (or maybe not), it was just reported today that we should expect Israel to strike Syria ?very soon? in an effort to get some missiles they claim to have missed in their last illegal and immoral attack on another sovereign nation.
Unnamed US officials leaked information Thursday on alleged Israeli air strikes in Syria, and told The New York Times they expect an additional attack by Israel in the near future.
The sources, described by the Times as ?American intelligence analysts,? discussed what they said were classified assessments, according to which a July 5 IAF strike on a Syrian facility housing Russian surface-to-sea missiles in Latakia failed to destroy them all.? Jerusalem Post
Assad recently pissed off the American establishment by claiming they were going to win in this illegal destabilization campaign being run by Washington and London and Tel Aviv.
Russia also put themselves on the sh*t list this week when they said it was immoral for Washington to be hiring terrorists to destabilize Syria. They got the Snowden story for their efforts. Looks like someone hit Syria for Assad?s.
Also of note, it would appear that al Qaeda is threatening an embassy or some other location in the Middle East for a good old fashioned terrorist attack this weekend. They are shutting down U.S. embassies all across the Middle East, I guess they don?t want another Benghazi investigation taking place.
?CBS News correspondent David Martin reports that U.S. intelligence has picked up signs of an al Qaeda plot against American diplomatic posts in the Middle East and other Muslim countries. The intelligence does not mention a specific location, which is why all embassies that would normally be open on Sunday have been ordered to close. That includes embassies and consulates in the Middle East, North Africa, and South Asia, where Sunday is the start of the work week.
Martin further reported that officials say this appears to be a real plot in the making and not just the normal chatter among terrorists talking about attacks they?d like to carry out. But these same officials add they are missing key pieces of information.? CBS news
The story will be that no one can blame the administration this time because he shut down all the embassies in the region. Odd though, isn?t it, that al Qaeda is fighting alongside our assets in Syria (and being openly backed by Sec. Kerry) and getting weapons funneled to them from people like Chris Stevens in Libya, and suddenly they want to attack an embassy somewhere in the Middle East.
Did they just remember they hate us for our freedom or is this something else?
What do you think?.
