[QUOTE](CNN) -- The United States believes Israel has conducted an airstrike into Syria, two U.S. officials tell CNN.
U.S. and Western intelligence agencies are reviewing classified data showing Israel most likely conducted a strike in the Thursday-Friday time frame, according to both officials. This is the same time frame that the U.S. collected additional data showing Israel was flying a high number of warplanes over Lebanon.[/QUOTE]

There is no such thing as absolute certainty in matters such as these.

Israel, our favorite buddy, seems to like to keep information from us.
It's even at the point where we "believe" they have tested nukes, but they won't tell us that.

Why would they announce such a thing publicly?
Face it, you have no idea what Israel have or have not told to the US.
Does this happen to be said air strike?

Yeah its is, the strike targeted the Mount Qasyoun military arms depot which is close to the Tal research facility. Apparently the Syrian army was storing surface-to-air missiles meant for Hezbollah there.
Rumor says the IAF hit it with a few bunker-busters. There's another video which shows secondaries.
I really hope that wasn't a nuclear strike or a nuke failed launch. If so, those poor people....
Not to mention the fact we will have congress find an immediate justification for a "SPEND ALL WE GOT TO WAR" shit

There's no way in hell that anyone would fire nuclear weapons at Syria over this.
