Part One of the Great Fantasy of the Ultimate Weapon!
Anything You can Build, I can build better, I can build anything better than You!
This old refrain in song is most appropriate in the saga of the Israeli air strike on Syria!
This has been the curse of defenders in modern warfare since the introduction of the castle wall.

This latest report by The Sunday Times, seems to confirm everything we have issued on our numerous Blogs on this subject, since we issued the first one on the day following the Israeli air strike on northern Syria almost a month ago.
Report: Russia sent technicians to Syria

Russia has sent technicians to upgrade Syria’s air defense system, The Sunday Times reported Tuesday morning.
Reportedly, Moscow sent the team after Israel managed to foil Syria’s air defenses using stealth technology to remain invisible during an alleged air strike on September 6.
Foreign reports that surfaced since the incident indicated that Israeli jets assisted by a unit of special operations ground troops bombed and totally destroyed a strategic site in eastern Syria built with North Korean help.
According to the Times’ report, the Israeli Air Force used a sophisticated electronic warfare system operated by F-15I jets and a fleet of specialist electronic warfare aircraft over the Mediterranean during the attack on a suspected nuclear facility near Dayr az-Zawr.
They transmitted signals that jammed the Russian-made radar and the Syrian army’s communications.
Syria has been veering from condemnation to denial since the alleged attack, and in the past few days has stuck to strong denial of any nuclear activity and claimed that the IAF attack was aimed at a civilian agricultural research center.
The top-secret system used by Israel, the paper claimed, was being used for the first time.
It is believed to have been designed in readiness for a possible attack on Iran’s nuclear sites.
