The report I saw said Israel occupied the Golan Heights.  That report didn't mention any other territory.  Probably smart of them considering it overlooks their territory. 

Haven't they occupied the Golan Heights for like 50 years?

Most of it, but there's still some that Israel hasn't occupied. Maybe they finally grabbed the last of it?

Word is the Russkies have been distracted by Ukraine of late.

But that doesn't take away from the fact that Russia has the strongest, most mobile, most effective, most strategic, most tactical, most well equipped, and best led Army in the world.

Russia isn't just a super power...

It's an UBER super duper super power.

Lesser nations such as the United States and China tremble in fear at the might of the Russian army.

And if you dare question that, Russian will nuke you! Nuke you flat and build a parking lot on the resulting sheet of glass!

Yes on the tents. Three people froze to death a few nights ago. For some reason it wasn't headline news.

When talking about occupation, it is necessary to make a distinction - who exactly is the occupier. The Israelis did not occupy - they democratically liberated the Golan Heights in the name of peace. Now they have liberated some more Syrian territory “to avoid a vacuum” - well, that is. for peace on earth )))

The article I saw mentioned a treaty agreement of some sort between Israel and Syria.  I assumed they moved off the Heights with agreement Syria wouldn't occupy it either.  That agreement being null and void with the new regime/civil war.  They can always move out if Syria ever gets a stable govt.

Someone brought up the question of does this mean Al-Qaeda now has it's own airline in the shape of Syrian Airlines?

Seems this regime change may have worked to Israel's advantage.

We'll see. In general swapping out secular Arab governments for fundamentalist Islamic governments hasn't been ideal for Israel over the long term.

Or even medium term.

Small, mainly missile boats for coastal defense.

Essentially a bunch of small targets good for testing Israeli missiles.

Why Are Pallets Of US Dollars Showing Up In Damascus?

The video appears to show a shrink-wrapped pallet of U.S. $100 bills. On the pallet, a QR code is visible. That QR code leads to the Federal Reserve Bank in New York. No further information could be gleaned from the QR code.

Says there were at least 5 similar pallets

JUST IN: The Australian Government is reportedly denying visas to Israeli citizens if they have ever served in the Israeli military.

A 100-year-old Australian Holocaust survivor’s family members were denied visas to see her for her birthday.

Umm.  They have a draft, and other than ultra-othodox sects, have to serve I think 2 years.  Men and women.

Didn't Hitler call for Germans living abroad to repatriate to Germany, provided they weren't Jews?

As a means of bolstering his Army?

Yes. I do.  I hate the BS "Refugee" crap that has been going on for the last couple years (decade in Europe).  It's put us in a crap situation on many fronts.

That said, I would not feel comfortable sending any female back to Syria.  Especially one that has been granted refugee status for the length of their civil war.  It's bad to let them stay here.  It's worse to sentence a woman and her children to a fundamentalist Islamic government.
