Foreign experts: Syria secretly built 30 underground bunkers to enable rocket attack before IAF can destroy them
If true, this is the type of thing that can embolden the Syrians to believe that they can successfully strike Israel in an attempt to bring Israel to the negotiating table on Syria's terms, which Assad needs to maintain some semblance of independence (much like the reasoning for Sadat's attack of Israel to start the Yom Kippur War in '73). If this is not true, all it does is build up the drum beat of insecurity in Israel and threat of a hairfire trigger event that could result in an Israeli-Syrian war this Summer. Add to that the Israeli political crisis (this one is worse than usual with an amoral prime minister bent on political survival at any price), and you have a pretty flammable situation, BEFORE further adding to the mixture Iran, which Israeli analysts increasingly believe is 1-2 years away from their first nuclear bomb.

It's time for some talented statemanship, leadership and a grand bargain, or else...
