Israeli Attack on Syria could lead to Biblical False Peace!
The Important Thing was not what Israel Hit, but that they avoided the Russian Detection System – This could open the Door to a False Peace!

If you believe the Syrian Report the Israelis only destroyed an unused military building, I have a 1935 strip down ford, with aircraft seats and high speed aluminum heads, which I will sell you for two million dollars. If that had been the case the Syrians would have invited visitors to show them the remains of the unused building, instead of waiting almost a month in order to cover up the mess.
After reading the following Jerusalem Post October 1 article, please take the time to review the September 29 Blog Review of 7 Blogs issued since August 14, which we have included following this current Blog.
I am hopeful this current fear, brought on by the realization the failure of the high price Russian detection and destruction system leaves both Syrian and Iranian military targets vulnerable to aircraft and missile attacks, will lead to a false peace in the Middle East. The United States invitational peace meeting scheduled for later this year, to which Bashar Assad refers in the following article, could well begin a long drawn out process such that a false peace might come to the Middle East as early as 2010.

Assad: IAF warplanes struck ‘unused military building’
AP and JPost.com Staff, THE JERUSALEM POST
October 1, 2007
Syrian President Bashar Assad told the British Broadcasting Corp. on Monday that IAF warplanes attacked an “unused military building” in his country last month and said Damascus reserves the right to retaliate.
But Assad said his country was not about to attack Israel in response, suggesting he did not want to hurt chances at peace talks with the Jewish state.
The comments were the first by the Syrian leader about an alleged September 6 IAF air incursion over Syria which raised speculation the warplanes had hit weapons headed for Hizbullah or even a nascent nuclear installation – reports Damascus has repeatedly denied.
“Retaliate doesn’t mean missile for missile and bomb for bomb,” Assad told the BBC in an interview in Damascus. “We have our means to retaliate, maybe politically, maybe in other ways.
But we have the right to retaliate by different means.”
“But if we wanted to retaliate militarily, this means we’re going to work according to the Israeli agenda, something we don’t look for. That doesn’t mean we squander any opportunity for peace in the near future,” he added in the interview, which was monitored in neighboring Lebanon.
But Assad said Syria was not about to attack Israel. Asked whether Syria was considering striking at Israel, he said, “It’s possible, but we don’t say this is the option that we’re going to adopt now. We say that we have very different means.”
Previously, Syrian officials had said only that the IAF warplanes entered the country’s airspace, came under fire from anti-aircraft defenses, and dropped munitions and fuel tanks over northeastern Syria to lighten their loads while they fled.
The BBC quoted Assad in the interview as saying the attack was on an “unused military building.” The BBC did not air that part of the interview.
Asked in the BBC interview whether Syria was rearming and strengthening its missile capabilities, Assad said: “This is very normal and self-evident that we’re going to prepare ourselves for that.”
“That’s why you have the army, to defend your territory. We don’t build the army to make any aggression, but to defend our country, and this is normal – especially after the war on Lebanon last year, when we see the Israelis wreaked havoc on Lebanese cities.” he added.
“This conference or any conference is going to be
an opportunity but it should be purposeful. It should be substantive,” he said. “I don’t see where is the purpose and what is the substance of this conference. What are they going to talk about?”
“It needs more clarifications for Syria to take a decision,” he said.
According to Israel Radio, Assad said the conference must address Syrian interests, particularly the return of the Golan Heights.

IDF: Syria’s Anti-Aircraft System Most Advanced in World
Alex Fishman
(Ynet News)
August 13, 2007
The Syrians have purchased the most advanced ground-to-air missiles from the Russians, considered the cutting edge in aircraft interception technology, said a senior Israeli military source.
According to one estimate, the Syrians have more than 200 anti-aircraft batteries of different types.
The Institute for National Security Studies recently issued a memo on the strengthening of the Syrian army. Researcher Yiftah Shapir writes that the anti-aircraft deals between Syria and Russia include the purchase of SA-24 missile systems, an armored vehicle which carries four Igla-S missiles – among the most advanced shoulder-fired missiles on the market.
In addition, the Syrians purchased 36 to 50 Pantsir S-1 (SA-22) systems that combine missiles and shells. It is installed on a high-mobility vehicle and has a launcher of 12 missiles.

Iran and Syria hoping Russian Bear didn’t sell them a “Pig-in-a-Poke.”
September 8, 2007
http://www.tribulationperiod,com/
The location of Wednesday night’s mysterious supersonic maneuvers in Syria, coupled with the so called repulsion of the intruders, following a dropping of “munitions” by the aircraft, apparently at different levels, and the somewhat “out of character” responses by Russi a, Syri
a, Israel, and the United States, lead me to believe the latest DEBKAfile Report to have a reasonable degree of validity.
It appears from the character of the events as they were described by the Syrians, this was a deliberate planned set of maneuvers by Israeli jets to test the newly installed high tech Russian Pantsyr-S1E Missile Repellant System’s ability to repulse attack aircraft from striking a target.
With April Fool’s Day some seven months away it hardly seems fair for the Russian Bear to play such an outlandish April Fool’s joke on Syria and Iran, especially considering what they paid for the Pantsyr-S1E missiles purchased from the Bear to repel air assailants. I suspect the analyzing DEBKAfile military experts are correct in their assessment of this week’s mysterious bird droppings over northern Syria by Israeli birds with afterburners.
If so, everybody is clamming up for different reasons and we may never know for certain. I can picture the guys in the NSA Control Room really having a chuckle over this episode. And I can imagine all the excuses for the systems failure that are being copied from intercept between the Syrians, Iranians, and Russians. If it is true, my hat is off to the IAF, and I express my gratitude for a major coup which supplied valuable information to Israel and her allies.
The intelligence gained could be a deciding factor in a “go” or “no go” strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Advanced Russian Air Defense Missile Cannot Protect Syrian and Iranian Skies
September 7, 2007, 1:16 PM (GMT+02:00)
DEBKAfile’s military experts conclude from the way Damascus described the episode Wednesday, Sept. 6, that the Pantsyr-S1E missiles, purchased from Russia to repel air assailants, failed to down the Israeli jets accused of penetrating northern Syrian airspace from the Mediterranean the night before.
The new Pantsyr missiles therefore leave Syrian and Iranian airspace vulnerable to hostile intrusion.

HADACOL SPECIAL RECALL FOR BIRD DROPPINGS IN SYRIA!
September 9. 2007
http://www.tribulationperiod.com/
I have had a lot of fun issuing the last three blogs, as well as this one. It is a very serious matter, but I enjoy all the ridiculous statements being issued by all those associated with, and directly or indirectly affected, by it. Of course, I could be wrong, but as a retired NSA analyst, having set through episodes like this one in the Command Post, as my specialty was required, it is like old home week at Ft. George G. Meade for me.
As you know from my previous blogs, I think this was a natural reaction by Israel to the installation of new Russian high tech intercept hardware that desperately needed to have its capabilities tested by F-151 Israeli aircraft. It would have had the full approval of the United States. Such information would be vital in the event Israel and/or the U.S. decided to strike the Iranian Nuclear Complex and the Scud complex in Syria.
The Syrians are embarrassed as well as the Russians who sold them the equipment, which apparently wasn’t all it was chalked up to be, and the Iranians are no longer smug about the same Russian System being able to protect their Nuclear Complex. Hence, no one is saying anything that resembles a failure
on the part of anyone.

Straight Skinny – Israeli F-15I’s blacked out Syrian Air Defenses to destroy a Cache of Nuclear Materials!

This is not good news for Iran, because they have the same type of Russian Air Defense Systems as Syria. This means that Israel and U.S. attack aircraft will be able to black out the Iranian nuclear sites Air defense Systems.

As Promised – Blow Hard Rhetoric out of Red Faced Iran!
September 18, 2007
http://www.tribulationperiod.com/
Iran is whistling loudly in the graveyard, trying to artificially keep up its faded courage. Iran discovered its nuclear and military sites do not have the great protection from aircraft and missile attacks, which was promised to them by the recently acquired Russian Detection Systems. Syria’s protection was proven to be a myth by the success of the Israeli air strike in northern Syria.
Their anticipated whistling is in the form of threatening rhetoric against Israel. It is blow hard, hot air, rhetoric. They do not have 600 launch proficient Shihab-3’s to send up. Even if they did, none of them have nuclear warheads – Israel’s do! The Shihab-3 testing has been limited. Israel has a missile detection and destruction system that works. Blow hard rhetoric, the U.S. and Israel know is all hot air, is all that Iran can launch upwards at the present time. Who knows, this might cause even a man as fanatical as Ahmadinejad to back off. I imagine his religious superiors are all over him now like a duck on a June bug. If Syria and Iran want to win a war with Israel they had better back up, develop an effective air and missile shield, allow UN inspectors back into Iran, find a way to secretly develop a deterrent nuclear weapon, and employ some of their well known Persian and Syrian cunning to lead
Israel down a dead end peace path of deceit.

Syrian and Iranian Military Confidence is staggered after IAF and Commando Success!
September 23, 2007
http://www.tribulationperiod.com
All the wild screaming coming out of Iran’s President Ahmadinejad is a cover for a blow to his confidence in Iran’s military capabilities.
There are two factors working in the Middle East that are currently appearing in print, which have future implications:
FIRST
Syria, Iran, and Russia are all terribly shocked and embarrassed by the obvious great success of Israel in avoiding what they thought was a magnificent high tech aircraft and missile system, which could not be penetrated.
AND SECOND
Russia’s Putin is rushing to Iran to assure them everything will be just fine, because he does not want the oil laying golden egg goose to stop sending its gold eggs from oil revenues to Russia.
He desperately needs them for the Russian Economy.
All this will have a direct affect on the timing of a major Middle East War which, Lord willing, I will discuss in the next Blog.

Russia’s Putin heads to Iran to Placate the Golden Goose!
September 24, 2007

I retired from the USAF Branch of the National Security Agency at Fort George G.
Meade in 1971, and began work on my first book, “Tectonic Chaos,” in the early seventies while still a student at the Missionary Baptist Seminary in Little Rock, Arkansas. I am certainly not one of the “Johnnie Come Lately” boys in bringing the Antichrist out of the Middle East Arab World.” I have believed he would come out of Syria or Lebanon from my youth. The following is a quote from my first book, which was published in the mid-seventies, more than thirty years ago.
Begin Quote
“Revelation 13:1 – And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
The ten horns of Revelation 13:1 are ten Arab nations who will soon form the nucleus of the seventh kingdom, and the ten crowns are the kings who will rule then. For years we have pictured the typical Arab as a scrawny little fellow on a camel in the desert with a rather comic expression on his face. This viewpoint is quickly changing. Oil is slowly replacing the dollar in international importance, and soon Arab nations will have gained economic control of much of the earth’s wealth. We will not try to stop them because of the Soviet Union – And the Soviet Union will not try to stop them because of us and Red China. The world power block will block itself while the Arab nations prosper in their midst.”
End Quote
I watched the above scenario begin in the late sixties while still in the NSA, and knew it would continue until the ten Arab nations attacked Israel, which would be followed some three and one-half years later by China, and what was then the Soviet Union, coming down to join the Antichrist at the final battle of Armageddon.
I wrote my second book, “Tribulation Triad,” through encouragement by Dr. J.B. Powers, to whom I dedicated my third book, “Birth Pangs from the Bottomless Pit,” which was published in the early eighties.
Sure enough, the Golden Goose Middle East Arab countries have been protected from a take-over of their Golden Egg resources by the United States, Russia, and China not daring to take over the Golden Egg laying resources. They feared what the other two would do, if one attempted to do so. But Russia has indeed been on a Golden Egg Easter hunt since the Soviet Union economy went to ground zero as the Union splintered into many countries. Russia rushed into the Middle East to offer all sorts of high tech military weapons, scientists, and builders to get the golden eggs, which they desperately needed to build up a non-existent Russian economy – and Iraq and Iran made it happen. North Korea and China did the same, but not on the same grand scale as Russia.
There are several reasons that Putin, as indicated in the article which follows from the DEBKAfiles, is heading for an October 16 meeting in Iran, but the main reason is to exercise damage control on the complete failure of the supposedly invincible Russian aircraft & missile detection & destruction system that was pawned off on Iran and Syria for a large number of golden oil revenue eggs. He wants more golden eggs from the Arab oil producing revenues.
The very strong ties between Russia, China, and North Korean with the fanatical factions of the Islamic nations of the Middle East world, will be made very plain at the final battle of Armageddon, when they all come down to get a piece of the possum oil pie.
