Introduction – March 5, 2020
This is not the first time Israel has used civilian passenger as cover to launch missiles strikes. Last month Israeli Air Force jets struck at Syria troops using the flight path of an Airbus A320 from Tehran as cover, forcing it to make an emergency landing at Hmeymim airbase in Latakia province.
On Christmas Day 2018, six IAF jets used the flight paths of civil airliners to get into position before launching missile strikes into Syria.
So hiding behind civilian jets now appears to be a favoured tactic used by the Israeli Air Force. In effect they are using airline passengers as human shields, which is what terrorists do when they take civilian hostages. Ed
Civilian planes used as cover by Israeli military to fire missiles at Syria

A passenger jet and cargo jet were forced to take diversionary measures to avoid being struck by crossfire after Syrian air defence installations were activated.
Two civilian planes had to take diversionary measures after Israeli fighters jets piggybacked on their flight trajectory in a bid to attack targets in Syria.
Israeli jets were reportedly attempting to use Israeli airspace to launch missiles targeting Syrian military installations near Homs and Quneitra.
Footage on social media in the early hours of Thursday morning showed what appeared to be the light streaks of anti-aircraft batteries towards the skies targeting Israeli jets.

Hours before Israeli jets struck Syrian territory there were reports of a potential attack. Syrian air defence installations were also activated, firing missiles at the Israeli warplanes.

Following the Israeli attack, it emerged that one civilian passenger jet and one cargo jet had to make emergency manoeuvres to avoid being struck by the crossfire.
According to Flightradar24, an open-source flight tracking service, the flights were QR8294 travelling from Basel, Switzerland, to Doha, Qatar and passenger plane QR419 flying from Beirut, Lebanon, to Doha
The Israeli move could have potentially led to a human tragedy, similar to what happened in Iran recently with a passenger jet that the Iranian government mistook a Boeing 752 for a missile strike.
In 2017, when Israeli fighter jets using a Russian military plane as a cover to conduct attacks in Syria it was accidentally shot down by the Syrian S200 missile system.
Israeli has regularly attacked Syria even before the onset of the civil war that began in 2011. Since the Assad regime has attempted to quell the rebellion to his rule with Iranian, Russian and Hezbollah backing, Israeli attacks have increased in frequency.
The Tel Aviv government is worried about the growing Iranian presence on its border and the supply of weapons to Hezbollah.
While Israel does not publicly comment on its strikes in Syria it has attempted to take action by targetting Hezbollah, Iranian and militia activity in southern Syria. The Assad regime has confirmed some of these Israeli attacks.
Hezbollah and Iranian proxies have attempted to respond to Israeli attacks.
When pressed in early February, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, refused to comment on an Israeli airstrike instead deflecting by suggesting that “It might have been the Belgian Air Force.“
The Israeli strike in Syria killed seven people, three Syrians and four Iranians.
During the Syrian war, Iran has incrementally expanded its influence in southern Syria, in particular, to put further pressure on Israel.
In Lebanon, Hezbollah, one of Iran’s most powerful proxies already has a powerful presence, however, Syria has been used by Tehran to expand the strategic depth of Iranian influence.
The Israeli Defense Minister Naftali Bennett was recently quoted as saying: “We will remove Iran from Syria in the near future.”
Going on to add “They are not neighbours, they have no reason to settle next to Israel.”
This is so disgusting only a jew would do this, no normal right thinking person
why do iaf not use el al as cover as well.
By way of deception, we shall do war
[ Mossad creed ]
Winston Churchill, a Rothschild minion, referred to the Americans traveling on the ill-fated Lusitania as “live bait,” a tactic for involving the U.S. in World War I, which started the flow of money from the pockets of U.S. citizens into the vaults of Rothschild and his fellow bankers. The “live bait” tactic had been successfully used with the deaths of American sailors aboard the USS Maine. Banker-backed corporate moguls exploited the situation. Their political puppets then ordered the military to invade the resource-rich Philippines. Meanwhile, the media vilified and dehumanized the innocent Filipinos so that the invaders could rationalize killing them. Mogul minions followed up by gathering cheap labor to extract resources and the government seized land to build military bases to manage the population and protect the resources. http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/spingola/100918

How Mossad Got America to Bomb Libya & Fight Iraq
Victor Ostrovsky and Claire Hoy, By Way of Deception St Martin’s Press, New York 1990.
Ostrovsky’s Foreword
REVEALING THE FACTS as I know them from my vantage point of four years spent inside the Mossad was by no means an easy task.
Coming from an ardent Zionist background, I had been taught that the state of Israel was incapable of misconduct. That we were the David in the unending struggle against the ever-growing Goliath. That there was no one out there to protect us but ourselves – a feeling reinforced by the Holocaust survivors who lived among us.
We, the new generation of Israelites, the resurrected nation on its own land after more than two thousand years of exile, were entrusted with the fate of the nation as a whole.
The commanders of our army were called champions, not generals. Our leaders were captains at the helm of a great ship. I was elated when I was chosen and granted the privilege to join what I considered to be the elite team of the Mossad.
But it was the twisted ideals and self-centered pragmatism that I encountered inside the Mossad, coupled with this so-called team’s greed, lust, and total lack of respect for human life, that motivated me to tell this story.
It is out of love for Israel as a free and just country that I am laying my life on the line by so doing, facing up to those who took it upon themselves to turn the Zionist dream into the present-day nightmare.
The Mossad, being the intelligence body entrusted with the responsibility of plotting the course for the leaders at the helm of the nation, has betrayed that trust. Plotting on its own behalf, and for petty, self-serving reasons, it has set the nation on a collision course with all-out war.

“Tel Aviv Government” Vs “Assad Regime”?
A claim that Iran is attempting to settle[FFS] in Syria?
A claim that israel is victim, and obliquely has some sort of right to shadow civilian aircraft where hostile activities may threaten it’s attacks on another country?
Wake up people, you’ve just been reading a threat and a puff-piece while being insulted and mauled intellectually by Form Of Words propaganda.
HTH.
