Is Gilead blocking an attempt by the US to deploy Israel against Syria after the failure of last week’s attempted coup in Syria. If so, the West has suddenly seen its options dramatically reduced.

Amos Gilead, head of the defense ministry’s political and security division, said Tuesday that Israel should be on heightened alert and prepared for every eventuality in the Syria conflict, but there was no room for panic. The Syrian ruler is in total control of his unconventional arsenal, he said and called the FSA’s report that chemical weapons had been deployed to airports on Syria’s borders “unrealistic.”

The covert war against Syria isn’t working out and a kind of hysteria, a serious mental derangement is taking hold of Western elites. They mobilised all their media and political assets, their Gulf dictatorships and European stooges to overthrow Assad.
