Syria Rules Out Retaliation After Israeli Strike, Again
Syria's UN envoy declares Damascus won't pursue military retaliation after Israel's Beit Jinn attack, instead calling for 'internationally recognised' action. This isn't a new policy; it's a worn-out refrain. Netanyahu's government has routinely bombed Syria for years, alleging Iranian targets (a convenient justification for violating sovereign airspace). Meanwhile, the international community,
led by perennial hypocrites in Washington who sanction Syria with one hand and arm Israel with the other, issues strongly worded condemnations that rarely translate into actual consequences for Israel's repeated cross-border assaults. One might wonder if 'internationally recognised action' is just diplomatic code for 'let Israel do what it wants' when it comes to nations outside the US umbrella.
