America, Israel and Syria Together Forever.................

Soo .......Israel launched a missile attack againt Syria on thursday near the port city of Latakia. There was an explosion at the missile site and Israel did not confirm an attack (but we already know it was them). You see, Israel is trying to protect its back by disabling any shipment of weapons to Hezbollah, an extremist Muslim shi'it group based in Lebanon. Then they tried to protect thier backs again by stating that they don't ''refer to foreign reports" when they were interviewed. What? Well we already know they did it and they already stated that they will target any future shipments of weapon to hezbelloh AND already bombed Syria in January. For those who don't know much about the Syrian war ( please come out from under your rock), here is a brief history. Syria is a country in the middle east bordered by Turkey, Lebanon, Israel, Iraq and Jordan. The civil war started on the march of 2011 when the Syrian people uprised against president Bashir Al-Assad, whose power was handed down to him by his father(even though Syria is NOT a monarchy). There are some people who support him and others that don't. About a year and half ago, it was declared a civil war. Currently, 100,000 people have died and 2 million have fled. Now that you know ,you're probably wondering where the world police is in this situation. Haaaaaa it' s too busy worrying about healthcare and keeping the government open. However, there is a huge possibility that it will get involved but its involvment will probably be messy. First, Israel and America are BFFs. If one gets hurt, the other seeks revenge (actually come to think of it, its only a one way street, when Israel gets hurt America defends). Israel is bombing because it feels threatened. But hold on.......remember that speech that Obama gave about intervening in Syria because of chemical weapons? He spoke up because Syria orginally promised that it would never use chemical weapons, just like the 197 other countries that made that promise. But was Obama scared for the safety of Syrian people, or for the protection of Americans and Israelites? OR was it for the general safety for the people of the world. I don't know, I do not know. Anyways, if America gets involved will it be on Israel's side and also try to protect its back, or will it be on the side of the innocent Syrian civilians who keep getting killed? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/31/israel-strike-russian-missiles-syria_n_4183174.html http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/31/world/meast/syria-civil-war/
