UPDATE: Syrian Surface-To-Air Missile Flew Way Off Course Triggering Alarms Before Exploding Over Israel

[Arian]

I posted updated information about explosions in Israel from mainstream sources (Western and Middle Eastern). Since this is a discussion about an incident in Israel, it is logical for different sources to quote Israeli officials in relation.

You clearly stated this in your post (# 254): "All Western sources are going to stick with the Israeli version of the story. I am sure you are mature enough to know this."

Sweeping generalization or what? How can I address this issue for you?

I do not have much free time on my hands to address your reservations about Western sources TBH. This is something you will have to figure out on your own.

I have given this thread some direction on the basis of a well-informed source. Thread title can be amended again in view of additional updates from the same source or other well-informed sources.

If you find another article reliable then let me know. But you are stuck with an unexplained footage.

This source:

Israel admits failure to intercept Syria missile landing near Dimona military nuclear site

The Israeli war minister admitted on Thursday that Tel Aviv tried, but failed to intercept a Syrian missile that landed near the regime’s most sensitive Dimona military nuclear site.

- will do for amending title of this thread?

Independent journalism means that they should quote both sides. Israeli officials and others.
You are quoting Tehran Times, but did you also read this part?

Gantz claimed the missile had landed near Dimona as a result of “errant” Syrian anti-aircraft fire. General Frank McKenzie, head of the United States Central Command, also echoed the remarks, addressing the Senate Armed Services Committee earlier.
Many observers, however, provided different assessments.

“I think that this is a lie,” Mimi al-Laham told Press TV from Perth, Australia, of the incident, noting how it only took Israeli sources some 40 minutes following the incident to “spin the elaborate” version.

She said the missile was not errant and appeared to be a “surface-to-surface” or “ballistic” missile rather destined for the target that it hit.

“A few years ago, when Syria shot down an Israeli jet, they claimed it was an ‘engine failure,’” she recalled.

Does this part in any way change your opinion?

Everybody knows that Israel and Iran are not on good terms and will contradict each other over numerous developments in either country.

For discussion sake, do you really expect a lone ballistic missile to get through sophisticated defenses of Israel so easily? What kind of ballistic missile was it? If Israel was subjected to a ballistic missile attack from another country then what is stopping said country from posting a footage of its launch as proof of its usage to target Israel? Nobody is stopping said country in this matter.

I revisited title of this thread on the basis of an UPDATE about recent developments in both Israel and Syria in a Western but well-informed source which is known to scrutinize anything it wants to by the way. But you have problems with The Drive source as well?

I have revisited FIRST post by accommodating Iranian viewpoint in it.

ah! the Iran missile attack, yes we deserved that one for assassinating an Iranian General.
We were on the wrong side of history on that occasion and I’m glad we did not escalate.

Since the US loves to cling to international law (lol) i will remind you that attacking army bases of a nation is a declaration of war. Iran did enough damage TBH.. right now there are American soldiers developing psychological trauma.. some can not even pick up their daily lives getting bothered by flashes and severe tinnitus. Also, we sent hundreds of Americans back to their homes, horizontally. Many are also missing limbs, bodies, faces burnt etc thanks to Iranian IED's.

Well, it did get through sophisticated Israeli defenses though. Didn't it? Even Israelis admit it. Now the only remaining question is what kind of missile it was? Syrians say it was a Tishreen missile, a Syrian version of the Iranian missile Fateh-110, Israelis say it was a SA-5 missile that missed its target and landed near Dimona. What did stop Israel from revealing more photos about their alleged sabotage attack on the Iran Centrifuge Assembly Center at Natanz? Why did they never reveal any information on it? Your question completely ignores the nature of all these developments. It's a cold war! They don't release such information in this sort of operations.

@LeGenD There is this undeniable fact ''explosion reported in central Israel''. What comes after that can be explained in the following posts. Agreed?

These photos could very well be from the Syrian Air Defense response to the Israeli strike on Syria "after" the attack on Dimona. Do you deny this possibility?

Title is very fitting. An explosion happened in central Israel. The causes of that can be discussed in the thread. It seems like you are rushing to immediately explain the cause in the title.. making it unnecessary long, weird and laughable.

If it helps you sleep at night ..sure keep convincing yourself that the US is afraid of Iran.
From my perspective and others in the west - Iran is just noise. It serves US interests and has done so over the last two decades. Iran is useful to the US as a convincing bogeyman for our Arab friends. Saddam was in that role until he got greedy and overreached , I hope Iran does not repeat his mistake.

Did your father's (imaginary) colleague that fought in the Iraq-Iran war explain to you that Saddam used to be your ally?
You've been barking for 43 years since the day that your diplomats in Tehran were taken hostage by a group of revolutionary students. And all these 43 years, you have failed each and every time you flexed your muscles for us. lol

Sure, wasting billions of dollars.. giving thousands of casualties just to make Iran's position stronger is for sure in US favor. Look, i know imperialism and racism is in your blood but there is still this tiny hope left that you can correct your behaviour and treat everyone with respect and dignity. There was no Hezbollah,Hamas,Khomeini, Islamic republic in 1953.. so why did the US made itself the enemy of the Iranian people?

Totally worth it.
I have a very dark sense of humor. But when you think about it, it is true and funny. I mean the Germans produced some of the world's finest soaps from jew fat. True story! Hence, Israel is the world's soap mine. And since we have laid our eyes on them first, they're our soap mine.

Is there any mod around here that can stop these Jew hating rants please? Thank you

Still a more lethal attack than Operation Eagle Claw. The US should print a national facepalm stamp for the commemoration of that operation. Something like this would do:
