Report: Iran and Syria sign defense cooperation pact

WAS THERE ANY DOUBT...IRAN/SYRIAN WAR PACT...finally we got it in writing..this should set the stage for the liberation of .iran...long live ..green....and thank our god for israel

Is it possible Assad and Ahmednijad did not discuss al qaeda before signing agreement?.....Who would not want a free hardcore fighters,with recent nato & Us expreience.I guess Al qaeda is fantasising war with israel with open borders from Syria,Lebnon,Egypt,jordan not to mention with free of cost Iranian weopons. Others Arab countries too will be forced to aid this war.Good days coming for Al qaeda and brotherhood. Indeed only Israel has the capacity & the talent to unite Al qaeda with Iran

You are quite correct about this conflict possibly becoming global. It is a real danger. I really don't want to see conflict at all. I don't long to see the Syrians get beat and I wish the people of Iran could have a government that would treat them better. I greatly admire Anwar Sadat because he wanted peace and was brave enough to stand up for it. I admire people who strive for peace but I also admire people such as the Iranians who stand up and are willing to fight for their freedom or nations such as Israel that are willing to fight so hard and long for their survival. I wish you well tea man. We should all be praying for peace.

1880s germany italy austria makes an alliance 1900s france England russia makes a similar agreement later italy quits the alliance with germany and joins the english alliance. with a little spark WAR! than ottomans joins germany.. what will be the spark this time? world war 3 is near! Isr-US against Syria-Iran-NKorea all those peace talks and forcing others to peace is a game everyone wants war but needs a reason. we re just waiting for that reason to appear!

The Golan, and no other land won in war by Israel will be returned to 'demanding' musts' from the vanquished who began the repeated hostilities on Israel. All of that land should have been annexed and made a part of israel years ago. There will not be two states they'll have to settle for Gaza and the runway rocket show.

lil' tinhorn soldiers. A mini mouse and the turtle.

Say goodbye to Golan, baby! Thank you for assuring us that you are just too weak to act and live on your own. You may as well become an official Iranian state.... What a cute couple are Bashar and Mahmoud!!

You should move to the right coast of the usa because of global warming hitting the left side bad you and I wish that the matter of conflict stay only as schoolyard fight but with global spread of wmd and MAD doctrine oh buddy its gonna be really sad from what i know super sad so dish your arrogance and pray for peace

i wonder if iraq will help the arabs countries

And if Syria were so smart they wouldn't have given Israel cause to take the Golan in the first place.

What chance has there ever been? There was no peace when Syria had the Golan. The only muslim leader that has ever truely wanted peace was Anwar Sadat, and it cost him his life. The bunch of you could not stamp out Israel in 1948 when Israel was weak. Your not going to see it happen now either. If Syria wants to get it's butt kicked again (which it will even with Iran's help) Israel is more than ready to do it.

ELSE LEFT TO SIGN. As they have already signed an attack cooperation pact. Well at least I assume they have, as they have been attacking Israel with thousands of rockets so far.

The rest of the world leaders should also sign a defence cooperation pact to fire back at Iran and Syria the moment they launch their first rocket attacks. It is about time Iran and Syria should be stopped from launcing rockets into Israel. They are both so mentaly ill that they actually beleive they both need to sign a defence pact, when they are the ones who have always been doing the attacking.

Syria has tried with long suffering patience to negotiate with Israel, but Israel would not! So now Syria has little choice but to seek strength elsewhere. It is your own damn fault, Israel! One wonders if it is Israel's goal to simply promote war or if she merely seeks justification for grabbing the Golan Heights. Apparently she doesn;t know how to make friends/allies of her neighbors. So suck Americas tit for as long as you can, Israel. One of these days it is going to dry up. And Israel will be in very hot water indeed.

"Syria could have had the Golan (like the Pal`s could have had the West Bank) many years ago. But they didn`t. Why? Think hard." Why? Because Israel NEVER bargained in good faith. Israel's negotiations were and are nothing but showboating for a world audience. Israel sets impossible terms, humiliating terms, reneges on previous agreements, ignores agreements already in force, and then blames the other side for not wanting peace--all while laughing behind its hands. The problem, now, is that the world has seen this movie too many times before.

the Middle East. The familiar axis of evil versus the moderate axis would change dramatically, and Iran's power would be curtailed.

How about this: If Syria and Lebanon (Hezbollah) attack Israel in retaliation against an pre-emptive Israeli strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, then so be it. A full, robust response from Israel is totally reasonable and right. And if Arabs choose to target population centers, then Israel should have the right to capture/annex new lands in compensation. There must be consequences for obvious targeting of civilians. Don't target civilians (does not include military targets within civilian areas), and no need to worry about losing kilometer after kilometer. For example, launching rockets like Hezbollah did in the last war would be grounds for losing lands.

Haaretz at http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1134474.html Quote "Iran and Syria signed a defense cooperation pact in Damascus on Friday, and pledged to counter the "Zionist regime," Iranian news agency Al-Alam reported. " If attacked, Iran wants also hezbola and hamas to hit back at Israel . Both terrorists organisations are Iran's proxys also serving Syria interests . But what about Fatah : Abbas' Fatah Party conference this past August, called for a "strategic channel with Iran to be opened," The Palestinian terrorist organizations have already started heating up Israel's borders to draw the attention from the world's focus on the Iranian and Syrian nuclear programs . The Israel Defense Forces and Home Front Command should conduct more extensive drills, simulating various combat scenarios against Syria , Hezbollah. , hamas and fatah . Before Iran is attacked . Israel should already work to counter the arabs and co. UNGA and UNSC resolutions condeming the Jewish State's right to self defense , to exist and Territorial Sovereignty .

Nice name. I should have given my whereabouts. But, then again, who knew there is another EZ out there. Shabbat Shalom.

now what you gonna face is war either give golan back in peace or syria with the help of iran will liberate it by war iran prefer war syria loves peace and bibi in between bewildered

Syria and Iran vs Israel and America. Wonder whose going to win this one?

This move has cemented syria as the enemy of Israel for decades to come. Israel should stop peace talks, annex the golan as punishment, vowing NEVER to return any of it to syria, and continue to markedly enhance their defensive line along the border with syria. This is not a political action: syria will fall completely in the end: when a dovish American President stays committed to the middle east conflict on such a grand scale, adding even more troops than Bush did, the world can see clearly that this will remain the center of global contention until the violent death cults leading such nations are COMPLETELY subdued. The US does not want to OCCUPY these nations: they just want them to chill and stop being so blood crazy...that simple. 'Nuff said.

"Israel had no more intention of giving back the Golan to Syria than it does of giving back the West Bank to the Palestinians. I`m sure Syria knew this." Syrians recently said that every Israeli gov since 1991 had "committed" to the return of the Golan. In fact, Syria could have had the Golan (like the Pal's could have had the West Bank) many years ago. But they didn't. Why? Think hard.

Syria has done everything to undermine Israeli security. They aid and abet Hezbollah, they build an Iranian nuclear reactor on their soil and now they form a defensive pact with Iran! Clearly Syria is not interested in peace with Israel. They are the actions of a country that is preparing for hostilities.

"Syria has no intention of making peace, with or without the Golan" Israel had no more intention of giving back the Golan to Syria than it does of giving back the West Bank to the Palestinians. I'm sure Syria knew this.

Thanks to Syria for making it so easy. Since any agreement between Israel and Syria cannot be complete without a formal peace, and since Syria has now chosen alliance with Iran who demands nothing less than the total destruction of Israel, that proves that Syria has no intention of making peace, with or without the Golan. Tie a knot and get on with real life.
