War

Rebels in Syria split with al Qaeda-aligned radicals assassinating moderate commander.

Israel attacks Syria again, claiming to attack anti-ship missiles.

"Israel maintains it's not involved in Syria's 2-year-old civil war except to stop weapons transfers. The strike near Latakia was the fourth known air strike in Syria by Israel this year, the newspaper reported."

That sounds involved to me. It sounds like Israel is doing the dirty work to make sure Syria can't retaliate against a NATO attack via aircraft carrier, which it sounds like we're one step closer to suffering.
