Oren: "Israel" Not to Remain Passive if Hizbullah Gets Strategic Syrian Arms

Local Editor

"Israeli" Ambassador to the US Michael Oren, claimed that the "Israeli" air breaches to Lebanon's sovereignty aim to prevent Syrian rebels or authorities from delivering arms to Hizbullah.
 
As he refused to comment on operational details, Oren said that ""Israel" would take action under specific circumstances."

"If the Syrian regime tries to transfer chemical weapons, or what we call game changing weaponry, to 'terrorist' organizations, particularly to Hizbullah in Lebanon, "Israel" will not remain passive," said Oren.

Oren further said: "Like all intelligence assessments there are varying degrees of probability. In that world 100% is almost an oxymoron."
"If the United States does decide to provide lethal weaponry to rebel groups, that those rebel groups be very carefully vetted," said Oren.

"We had some bad experiences in the past, when Gadhafi fell in Libya there were shoulder fire missiles that travelled very, very fast to our backyard from Libya," said Oren. "We ask that they be vetted in Syria."
