First the latest bombing of Syrian targets near the Damascus international civilian airport on December 7 was the seventh major unprovoked air strike of its kind since 2011 and the fifth in the past 18 months on Syrian defenses. Syrian Scientific research centers, missile depots, air defense sites, radar and electronic monitoring stations and the Republican Guards were targeted by Israel.

Facilitating the Israeli mission and complementing it, the terrorist organizations operating in the country tried several times to hit the same targets. They succeeded in killing several military pilots and experts whom Israeli intelligence services would have paid dearly to hunt down.
Foreign Policy on last June 14 quoted a report by the UN Secretary General Ban Ki -- moon as saying that the "battle -- hardened Syrian rebels ... once in Israel, they receive medical treatment in a field clinic before being sent back to Syria," describing the arrangement as a "gentleman's agreement."
Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu in February this year visited this "military field hospital" and shook hands with some of the more than 1000 rebels treated in Israeli hospitals, according to Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, a spokesman for the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF).
Foreign Policy quoted also Ehud Yaari, an Israeli fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, as saying that Israel was supplying the rebel -- controlled Syrian villages with medicines, heaters, and other humanitarian supplies. The assistance, he said, has benefited civilians and "insurgents." Yaari ignored the reports about the Israeli intelligence services to those "insurgents."
Israel facilitates war on UNDOF
Second, the latest quarterly report by the UN Disengagement Force (UNDOF) to the UN Security Council (UNSC) on December 1 confirmed what eight previous similar reports had stated about the "interaction " across the (Syrian -- Israeli) ceasefire line" between the IOF and the "armed members of the (Syrian) opposition," in the words of Ki-moon's report to the Council on December 4.
Third, Ki-moon in his report confirmed that the UNDOF "was forced to relocate its troops" to the Israeli side of the ceasefire line, leaving the Syrian side a safe haven zone for the al-Qaeda affiliate al-Nusra Front, which the UNSC had designated a "terrorist group."
