1. ....minutes later a Syrian plane crashes into tree
Raul ,   Maryland,US   (10.23.07)
Knowing how Syrians fly...its probably true.
2. "Be prepared" Khabib, just to use your
(10.23.07)
own words. Your inflamatory talk to your "elite military aviators" is like talking to the camel population of entire Syria. What kind of "high level of readiness" are you delluding yourself with ? To be shot down instantly by our planes, like it always happened and will happen ? Or, maybe, to get your planes destroyed on the ground ? Either way, it will happen once you dare give an order of attack against Israel. Be sure about it and understand that THIS will be your "high level" of readiness. If you were smart enough you would never talk about "relinquishing your right to return occupied land" because: 1. It has never been your rightful land even according to history and international agreements. 2. Had your late dictator leader Assaf not attacked Israel twice, you might have still owned The Golan Heights. But you lost land which had never been yours because you misused it - you started wars from its territory and you lost it big time. Now, it has become part and parcel of Israeli territory, de facto and by international law. Just start another war and you'll see international unanymous recognition of the Golan Heights, as well. As for the "real intentions" of the U.S. and her allies, don't you worry for it is not a secret. It is to stop criminal states like Syria from becoming the launch pad and ground of Iranian weapons and war intentions. This won't happen on Israel's watch ! One more point, Khabib, we are NOT "neglecting" anything, least of all Zionism which you and your criminal brothers have been demonizing ever since the creation of modern Israel, namely, ever since you got your criminal asses beaten out of our sacred Jewish lands. How about that Khabab ?!

Juan ,   Houston, TX   (10.23.07)
Accidents happen, just like American Helicopters crashed many times
9. Syria's a joke compared to Israel.. t's a graduation speech?
Anwar ,   Miami, USA   (10.23.07)
Hilarious comments. Syria military is a joke compared to Israel. What do you expect? A third world country with a GDP of less than Rhode Island versus US's top recipient of monetary "aid." Haha, funny. And it was a graduation speech at a military school, what else would you expect him to say? Seriously?

12. #3 then why have you said:" Syrian were backing Hizbulllah,
(10.23.07)
but, we have NOT seen them"?
13. ejection seat manufacturers come and watch the show
zionist forever   (10.23.07)
Dont forget to invite representetives from the companies that make ejector seats to come and watch this war .. because the Syrians are such nice people their pilots in the interest of making ejector seats better in future have volenteered to give examples on how to eject from a plane. 1) Call in members of the Syrian infantry and pin pilots wings on them say congratulations your now Syrias best of the best. 2) Show them a plane and explain you dont have to know how to fly it all you need to do is know how to jump out of it. 3) Show them how to eject 4) Prepare them for war 5) Make a phone call to Israel saw we are ready for the demostration. 6) Israel sends its worst trainee pilots. 7) Israels worst trainees see Syrian jets flown by their top pilots. 8) Israels worst trainee pilots engage the Syrian planes flown by their top pilots. 9) Syrias top pilots are parachuting down after ejecting and preparing to come home to a victory celebration. 10) Israels worst trainees get into trouble because they didnt fly well enough.
14. Sure. Why not start a war
Joe ,   USA   (10.23.07)
If the Arabs start a war, they are not held accountable for their actions and should they lose, it will be treated as a great injustice. So far, this has been true.
15. #10 thanks 4 the a dvice. they'll make sure to remove covers
(10.23.07)
16. #8 we wish you the best of reciprocal accidents
mutual wisher   (10.23.07)
17. the difference between Israeli & Syrian pilot
mike ,   seattle   (10.23.07)
The Israeli pilot breaks ground and flies into the wind.
18. #14 know why? cause they reclaim their own land
(10.23.07)
19. # 18 - Really?
Joe ,   USA   (10.23.07)
Had the Arab armies won the war in 1948, they would have stolen by force, all of the land bought and developed by the Jews. They would have robbed the banks in TA and probably killed all the Jews living there. Somehow, because the Jews defended themselves and gained land from their enemies, this is considered the biggest crime of all time. The fact of the matter is there were no refugees until the 1948 war.
20. nice speech is Israel scared I am RIGHT ???
M. Segal ,   mpls america   (10.24.07)
I realize even after Hizbullah Lebanon 2006 like that spelling bulls sounds better than bolahs any way does Syria have what it takes to confront the IDF again alone but may be better alone time alone if suddenly 1973 only a thousand 1 000 times worse RIGHT ??? THANK YOU... M. Segal
21. Syrian Airforce has less chance than Hamas Navy
meir elazar   (10.24.07)
Hamas is engaging in a moderm warfare using a Boatless navy patterned off of the Western world's concept of the paperless office. However for training purposes and extreme situations they have mounted masts and sails on the backs of camels. Camels that are part of the elite naval units instead carry very high powered outboard motors on the backs of these camels to try to help outmaneuver the Israelis. They have also encorporated some of their best marksmen to help "shoot the breeze" but this has caused extensive damage to the sails and frightened some of the camels. Based on the enormous success of the HAMAS navy and legends that are permeating all Arab/Moslem courtries of the Middle East, Syria is now preparing their airforce. Just remember to always be prepared because if they are not ready in 10 seconds or less, they will miss the war.
22. Does Biqa Valley Ring a bell?
Johnson ,   USA   (10.24.07)
During the Israel's Operation Peace for Galilee in 1982. A total of 86 Syrian MiG-21, MiG-23, and Sukhoi-22 aircraft out of apx. 100 warplanes had been shot down with no Israeli losses.
23. Syria readiness
Kathy S ,   Denver, CO   (10.24.07)
