"20/08/2007 A Syrian newspaper accused the United States on Monday of pushing Israel to war with Syria. Syrian daily Tishrin held Israel and the United States responsible for instability in the Middle East. "Even if Israel is not directly responsible for the daily killings, tragedies, and war crimes in the region, it is an accomplice to those," the daily wrote in its editorial.
The newspaper slammed Washington's decision to boost military aid to Israel whom it promised $30 billion over the next 10 years.
"American aid to Israel comes at a time when it is not only rejecting peace but also threatening and vowing to work around the clock to conduct military maneuvers in preparation of a new war. It is no secret that the war statements made by Israeli officials against Syria are not pointless but express Israel's true intentions towards Syria," the editorial read.
"The American regime, which prevented Israel from returning to peace talks over the last six years, is pushing it to a military adventure and is encouraging it after last year's defeat at the hands of the national Lebanese resistance," the newspaper said in reference to last year's Israeli aggression against Lebanon when the Israeli army was defeated by Hezbollah."
