ISRAEL ALREADY INVOLVED IN UNPROVOKED ATTACKS ON SYRIA - SCOTT RICKARD
09:19 25/07/2013 INTERVIEWS
Press TV has conducted an interview with Scott Rickard, former American
intelligence linguist, about Israel once again threatening the Syrian
government and President Bashar al-Assad with possible attacks.
- Mr. Rickard, just how likely will Israel get physically involved
in Syria -- I mean troops on the ground, an invasion perhaps?
- Well, Israel has been incredibly involved already in the attacks
unprovoked, in the illegal attacks on Syria. These attacks are
basically enabled, encouraged and celebrated by the West, NATO and
their Persian Gulf allies.
Once again no condemnation for the three major attacks by air and
by sea by Israel on Syria which were incredibly unprovoked and to
say these are for weapons of mass destruction, or these are for the
chemical weapons....
So these are incredibly unprovoked attacks, they are criminal. Israel
should be held in criminal court for these attacks and unfortunately
they are doing them for proxy, for basically they are ... wars for
the West and their allies.
- And of course how do you see the situation unfolding in the near
future considering the fact that division is growing among the
opposition and insurgents in Syria?
- Well, certainly the insurgents are being wiped out by Assad for a
couple of reasons. Assad has been very successful at attacking the
foreign intervention and obviously we are in the midst of Ramadan.
But at the same time these unprovoked attacks are going after strategic
weapons, strategic weapons that could aid in the defense against NATO
and Israeli attack on Syria.
So I believe that these are just precursor to an all out war and
attack against Syria and they are just basically taking out strategic
weapons unfortunately.
