Syrians operating missiles is almost as dangerous as giving a loaded Kalashnikov to a monkey. You never know when the monkey will pull the trigger.

Syrians using missiles are almost as dangerous as giving a loaded Kalashnikov to a monkey. Both of them are unpredictable.

"Advanced S-200 missile??" It's a 50-year-old system - the IAF and USAF are very familiar with the SA-5. The only way it can shoot down a fighter today (as with the IAF F-16 in February) is if the pilot isn't paying attention to his warning systems or using countermeasures. A prop plane with a pilot who doesn't think it's in danger from an "allied" system apparently is a different matter.
