IDF confirms: Israel provided light-weapons to Syrian rebels

[Aramagedon]

Lucifer zionists want to make another ISIS v 2.0 in Syria, Iraq and more countries.

Now it is clear that wahhabi rats and jihadi israelis are same snake with two heads.

Nonsense.

I remember an incident from 2011. In Damascus I think there was a sniper shooting at civilians. When he was caught, at first the Syrians thought he was Israeli. But if I remember correctly, he turned out to be a Turk.

You remember nonsense stories i8nvented by Assadist propaganda.

And do you have proof about the first Syrian tank to be destroyed in 2012??

Also, what were the "rebels" using to fight against the Syrian forces??

Here is the first ever tank destroyed in Syria:

17 January 2012. 10 months after the beginning of the revolution. So much for your nonsense claim that rebels wre armed and ready from he beginning. You know nothing about this conflict at all.

so assad cant take revenge after already finding weapons in rebel areas with hebrew inscriptions on them? stop your bs.those of us who r not naive or in denial already knew Israel was supplying rebels...this is just confirmation...and youre still in denial. youve lost this argument already.

This Hebrew inscrirption weapons is propaganda for imbeciles with IQ below 60. They showed some old mines (which u can easily find on Golan Heights), empty ammo boxes from 1970-es and so on. Since average Assad supporter has IQ of about 40 this propaganda is working well.

Look, I am not Syrian nor am I associated with a militia group fighting for the Syrian government, so why should I believe what the Syrian government blindly says??

What I believe about Syria is via common sense.

1. I don't know Arabic so I don't know much of what is being said in the vid.

2. The vid doesn't show that it is the first tank to be blown-up in the war.
​

Provide some neutral source like RT or ANNA news agency.

So much for your nonsense claim that rebels wre armed and ready from he beginning. You know nothing about this conflict at all.

Catapults??

Sorry you have very little knowledge about this conflict and repeat obviously silly stories about captured Turkish snipers.

1. I don't know Arabic so I don't know much of what is being said in the vid.

2. The vid doesn't show that it is the first tank to be blown-up in the war.
​

Easy. All you need to do is find me any video of destroyed Assad tank prior that date. Thats all. But you wont be able coz they does not exist.

Provide some neutral source like RT or ANNA news agency.

That's funniest thing I heard in my life. You call X rated Putin aka Assad propagandists "neutral sources"??? Are you serious?

So what were the "rebels" using to fight??

Catapults??

They had only little number of light arms. Thats why Assad managed to capture Ham a with ease for example.

It wasnt propaganda if it got confirmed and corroborated BY an Israeli news source that got censored by IDF. Also, fallacy detected- argumentum ad hominem. You have nowhere to hide. Newsweek have their own article about it too. You guys supported over a dozen terrorist groups, hoping they would pressure Assad.

IDF confirms: Israel provided light-weapons to Syrian rebels

Bashar Assad claimed that Israel had been providing arms to terror groups and its forces had regularly seized arms and munitions with inscriptions in Hebrew.

View attachment 496805

The Israeli army has admitted, for the first time, that it provided large amounts of cash, weapons and ammunition to Syrian rebels in the Golan Heights.

While the IDF maintains that it was not intervening in Syria’s civil war, on Monday it confirmed that as part of Operation Good Neighbor Israel had been regularly supplying Syrian rebels near its border with light weapons and ammunition in order to defend themselves from attacks and a substantial amount of cash to buy additional arms.

Through Operation Good Neighbor, which was launched in 2016 the Israeli military had provided over 1524 tons of food, 250 tons of clothes, 947,520 liters of fuel, 21 generators, 24,900 palettes of medical equipment and medicine.

Reports first surfaced of Israel providing arms and cash to rebel groups several years ago, with the regime of Bashar Assad claiming that Israel had been providing arms to terror groups and its forces had regularly seized arms and munitions with inscriptions in Hebrew.

According to reports Israel had been arming at least seven different rebel groups in Syria’s Golan Heights, including the Fursan al-Joulan rebel group which had around 400 fighters and had been given an estimated $5,000 per month by Israel.

“Israel stood by our side in a heroic way,” the group's spokesperson, Moatasem al-Golani, told the The Wall Street Journal in a January 2017 report. “We wouldn't have survived without Israel's assistance.”

The army believes that the decision to provide weapons and cash to the rebel groups along the border with Israel’s Golan Heights was the right decision.

Israel’s aim in providing the weapons and cash to rebel groups throughout Operation Good Neighbor which shut down once the Assad regime retook control of the Golan Heights in July, was to keep troops belonging to Hezbollah and Iran away from Israel’s Golan Heights.

The Syrian army, backed by Russian air power and Iranian backed Shiite militia fighters, have been recapturing large swathes of territory and is now believed to have control over 70% of the war-torn country.

While Syrian troops have once again been deployed to the border with Israel, in order to prevent an escalation between the two enemy countries, Russian military police have been deployed along the Golan Heights border along with UN Peacekeepers.

Israel has warned against Iran’s entrenchment in Syria and has stressed time and again that Syrian soil can not serve as a forward operating base by Iran and that the war-torn country cannot be a waystation for arms smuggling to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

While Israel’s military had been carrying out operation against Iranian targets in Syria for several years, it’s extent only became public after an Israeli Air Force F-16 which was taking part in retaliatory strikes was downed by Syrian air defenses in February.

Last year Former Israel Air Force head Maj.-Gen. (res.) Amir Eshel stated that the IAF carried out 100 airstrikes in Syria over the past five years.

On Monday the military announced that in the past year and half alone, Israel has carried out 202 strikes against Iranian and Hezbollah targets in Syria.

I wish they (IDF) had gone and taken out Assad and be done with it. This misery would not have occurred.

Its ok to wish, but we assume you know why that wasnt a real possibility.

Well i am talking about facts. Recently Assadists captured entire Daraa and could not find any Israeli weapons at all. As for "Israeli news source", some journo just made a mistake. IDF never confirmed such thing. If you read that article which was removed it does not give any source. Who or when has confirmed that.

That's funniest thing I heard in my life. You call X rated Putin aka Assad propagandists "neutral sources"??? Are you serious?

ANNA news agency is an independent agency whose journalists are embedded among Syrian government forces. The journalists go in tanks etc.

Here's a clip of an ANNA journalist who was shot by a FSA sniper.

If you won't believe RT then that's okay, but why wouldn't you believe ANNA??

ANNA news is created by moron cospiracy propagandist Marat Musin. That degenerate claimed that Assad army captured dozen of Turkish generals in Aleppo that Tripoli capture is staged and so on...

Correct. it is just hyperbole by the iranians/russian fake news outlets.

Why was he a degenerate??

By the way, about the Tripoli capture, that indeed was a staged one before. I myself have posted about this in September 2015. Reports were that there was a Green Square created in Qatar :

in the real invasion of tripoli ( there was a fake qatari-wood one earlier ), in the first hour, more than a 1000 defenders were killed... the people of tripoli had not only turned up a month earlier in a million at "green square" to celebrate 1st of september, they defended tripoli fiercely when it was finally invaded.

As it ended in Palestine peacefully after 7 decades.

Well, that is yet to be said given what is the state of all the surrounding arab neighbours which are basket cases or monkeys rulers or mullah powers.... nothing to write home about.

Here’s How the US, Israel, al-Qaeda and ISIS Work Together in Syria

The Syrian battlefield is now witnessing an escalation of the war. This is despite the fact that it is supposed to be a time of cessation of hostilities brokered by the US and Russia.

The Syrian war has two major fronts. The first and most important is in southern Syria, on the borderline with Israel and the occupied territories of the Syrian Golan Heights. This area is divided into two areas: the liberated area of Al-Quneitra, and the occupied area of the Golan Heights where Jabhat Al-Nusra and Al-Qaeda’s base their fighters.

Israel has been attempting to drive the Syrian army out of Al-Quneitra. Israel’s objective is to join this part of the Golan Heights to the territory it controls, thereby creating a buffer zone like the one it once had in southern Lebanon. In order to achieve this objective Israel regularly bombs Syrian military positions in the area, including Syrian Arab Army artillery positions, radar stations, etc.

There is a UN Security Council Resolution (UNSC Resolution number 338) dated 22nd October 1973, which supposedly established a Syrian-Israeli ceasefire in this area. There is also a UN force – UNDOF – set up in 1974, which is supposed to supervise the ceasefire line. However, Israel has forced out most of UNDOF from the area, and in practice Israel simply ignores the terms of Resolution 338 and violates it at will.

By attacking the Syrian Army in Al-Quneitra Jabhat Al-Nusra – Al-Qaeda’s local franchise – is helping Israel. Al-Nusra and Al-Qaeda fighters are attacking Syrian military positions important for the defence of Syria and of the Arab nation from Israeli aggression.

These Al-Nusra and Al-Qaeda attacks would not be possible without air support from Israel. Indeed, Israel has admitted many times that it supports these terrorists, whom it calls “moderate rebels”.

Israeli hospitals actually treat Al-Nusra terrorists, and Israeli ambulances regularly enter Syria to evacuate injured Al-Nusra terrorists via the Jbata crossing in northern Al-Quneitra to the Occupied Palestinian territories. Many of the weapons seized by the Syrian army from the terrorists as they tried to cross into Sweda Province in southern Syria to surround Damascus were made in Israel.

Lately the Syrian Army has carried out a series of successful offensives in the area, defeating the Western and Arab Gulf-backed “rebels”. Over the last few months the position of these so-called “rebels” has become desperate.

For that reason Israel has recently stepped its attacks on Syrian positions inside liberated Al-Quneitra, launching missiles into Syrian territory from its positions in the Israeli occupied section of the Golan Heights.

The Syrian military reported these attacks to the Syrian government. A senior Syrian official visited the area. He ordered the Syrian military in the area act to defend Syrian territory from Israeli attack. The very next day Syrian Air Defence shot down an Israeli F-16 warplane and an Israeli drone. The F16 was brought down on the border line in a place called Bir Ajam, which is under al-Nusra control. The drone was brought down in a place called Sa’sa’, which is inside Syrian army controlled territory.

This action marked a dramatic shift of policy on the part of the Syrian government, decisively responding to the attacks by the Israelis. It represents a direct counter to Israel’s aggression on Syrian land.

At around this time the US and the Russians, after prolonged negotiations, announced a ceasefire, the terms of which are secret.

The general opinion in Syria is that the terms of the ceasefire are secret because the US has longstanding obligations to the “moderate rebels” – who are neither “moderate” nor “rebels” but are actually terrorists – but has had to accede to demands from the Russians that it separates and identifies those fighters it supports from those it does not.

Had the US announced the terms of the ceasefire, the the morale of the fighters would have collapsed, since they would have confirmed that they had in effect been defeated. They might even have rebelled against the US.

However, what followed next shows that the US – the true master of this war, and the one which confers immunity on its chosen terrorists by calling them “moderate rebels” – can never be trusted in any quest for a peaceful solution to the war against Syria. The U.S. broke the ceasefire by striking a Syrian military airbase in Deir Al-Zour, located in the Thardeh Mountains.

This is a tough target for ISIS to capture, and it requires coordination between the US led coalition and ISIS against the Syrian Arab Army to give them the chance to do so. The objective is for ISIS to capture the airbase there, which will give ISIS control of the city and ultimately over the whole province.

The US claims that despite its powerful satellites and other methods of surveillance it could not identify the Syrian Arab Army’s positions and that the attack was a “mistake”.

We – the Arab people of Syria and Iraq – have long become accustomed to such “mistakes”. After all we remember the US-led coalition using similar rhetoric to drop weapons for ISIS in their stronghold along the border with Iraq, which it just so happens is also, interestingly enough, the border of Deir Al-Zour province.

That was the US’s gift to the barbarians of ISIS. Over 100 brave Syrian soldiers were martyred, and Syrian military positions resisting ISIS were destroyed and overrun.

Maybe I have got it the wrong way round. Maybe I should say it another way: What a great gift the barbarians of ISIS have given to the US – giving them the pretext to bomb Syria – the main country of the Resistance Front, and the only Arab country which together with Hezbollah resists Israel!

Meanwhile, Israel bombed a Syrian site in the south of Syria, claiming the life of another Syrian soldier.

Are we to believe this is all just coincidence?

The good news is that the Syrian Arab Army with Russian air support has been able to stop ISIS taking over the airbase near Deir-ez-Zour. However in the fighting the terrorists, who have been given advanced anti-aircraft weapons, managed to down a Syrian airplane.

Syrians deserve the right to counter any aggression against their country and their army. They deserve the right to respond in the same way that they have recently responded to the aggression launched against them by Israel.

I have personally met a Syrian soldier who survived the US coalition bombing in Deir-ez-Zour. He told Syrian Formal TV that US drones were flying over the airbase for more than four and a half hours before the US aircraft made their “mistake”. He said that he originally thought they were scanning the area to help the fight against ISIS. However he gradually realised that the drones were actually undertaking surveillance of the base itself – of its equipment, tanks, ammunition, etc. Later, the US aircraft destroyed all this whilst the ISIS terrorists were screaming Allah Akbar!

That brought back memories of the US led coalition drone that flew over the Presidential Palace in Lattakia, which our air defenses shot down over a year ago.

Would any sovereign country accept foreign powers bombing its army in its own land?

Add to that the Turkish troops in northern Syria who are – under UN cover – wanting to send 40 trucks of who knows what into Syria!

The UN prevented the Syrian authorities from checking these trucks, but they were still labeled “humanitarian aid.” What kind of aid is it really and who is it heading to? “Moderate” suicide bombers? ISIS?

And why are so many areas in Syria that are being besieged by terrorists being ignored by the UN? After all no one asks the ‘international community’ (ie. the US and its friends) to lift the unjust sanctions on Syria to prevent starvation!

Syrians are wondering: is our war really with ISIS and Al-Qaeda or with the US and Israel – the true aggressors and puppet-masters – who have always wanted a long war against Syria in order to break and occupy us?
