Syria is making concrete preparations for war with Israel, and is anticipating such a conflict this coming summer.

According to reports carried in the Arab media Friday, the Assad government has already ordered, and carried out, the removal of the Government Archives and State Archives from Damascus to other locations.

Recent assertions by Syrian President Bashar el-Assad that he is “seriously” interested in opening negotiations with Israel were a smoke screen intended to improve Syria’s standing internationally.

Reports have circulated during the past two months that Syria is preparing its SCUD missile arsenal for war, including the VX gas warheads it has been working on producing for several years.

It is widely believed that any attempt by Syria to introduce non-conventional warheads into a conflict with Israel will be met be an Israeli response that will destroy Damascus.

The Jewish state is too small, and its people too vulnerable to absorb weapons of mass destruction.

It would have no choice but to react as ferociously as its weaponry will permit.
