Syria Denies Zionist Warplanes Flew Over Presidential Palace
2003-08-20
Syria had categorically denied that Zionist warplanes had flown over the presidential palace in Latakia on the Mediterranean coasts last Sunday.
"Nope. Nope. Never happened."
It said that such allegations were meant to cause tensions on the overall situation in the region and to distract the world attention from Zionist atrocious practices in the occupied Palestinian areas.
"Lies! All lies!"
The Hebrew television's first channel has said that the "Israeli" warplanes that penetrated the sound barrier over Beirut last Sunday had continued their way and flew at low altitude over the Syrian presidential palace in Latakia. The broadcast said that the act served as a warning message to Damascus so as restrict Hizbullah's firing of anti-aircraft missiles.

#3  Word is that the truck that went boom at UN headqtrs, Bagdad, came from Syria. And Kofi's pissed at Americans for not doing enough. And where are the Swiss? In the high mountains protecting the account numbers.

#2  Reminds me of the box art on an old 1:48 Avro Lancaster kit, depicting a night raid on Berlin. The foreground plane's nose art featured a quote from Herr Goebbels: "No enemy plane will ever fly over Berlin."
