| Jets scrambled toward Syrian aircraft |
| 2007-09-28 |
| For the second time in less than a week, IAF fighter jets were scrambled to the northern border on Thursday after radar systems picked up Syrian helicopters making their way towards Israel. The jets took off from a base in the North and were ordered to head to the border and if needed intercept the helicopters. Minutes later, the IAF determined that the Syrian aircraft were not on their way to an attack and the Israeli planes were ordered to return to base. |

| #9 Use one of the anti-mortar lasers.... that way its deniable.... What? One of your crumby planes crashed and you think we had something to do with it? Come on! We have better things to do with our time like go after Hamas in Gaza. We were not anyway near that plane. |

| #5 I hope so smn ... Do this a bunch and the IAF might get lazy. IIRC, that's what Sadat did a bunch of in the run up to the '73 war. |

| #3 All of this 'cat n mouse' probing by the Syrians are their way of showing frustration, bluster and 'nose thumbing'! Baby Assad knows Israeli birds are 'ready five' and knee jerking on anything stroking a toilet flush from their side of the border. If it's the Syrians intent to 'wear down' the Israeli response; just a day in the park for the IAF! Those guys eat their bologna sandwiches and orange juice while 'inverted'! |
