Arms & cash flow to Syria rebels must stop to end violence




by Political writer and activist Sara Flounders says violence in Syria will only stop if foreign support to the rebels stops first.

Tank of the Syrian army got disabled, looted, and burnt by rebels. 10/7/12





First video shows the rebels claiming victory over the tank while dragging the dead crew away and looting the spoil.
In the second video the tank is seen from a different angle, I wonder if it was an IED that made him leap up on the barrier or was it a driver error.
Third video shows the tank set on fire with some annoying fag durka music, and the neanderthal rebels taking credit for the kill.

Has sophisticated cyber-warfare rendered these Russian systems obsolete? Spoofing - the ability to take over an enemies air defence network, creating dummy targets? Remember Israel's raid into Syria, was this system deployed at the time defending main SAM batteries?

On a lighter note, the now defunct Syria Exposed blog humorously casts doubt on the strength of Syrias air defence system, from an insider:
