British Special Forces Penetrate Into Syria

[Littlejoe]

Unconfirmed first reports from British, French and Turkish sources say British special operations forces crossed from Turkey into northern Syria Tuesday, May 26, and advanced up to 10 kilometers inside the country. The same sources report heavy fighting around the Presidential Guards compound on the outskirts of Damascus.
debkafile’s military sources note that this compound exists to defend Bashar Assad’s presidential palace on Mount Qaisoun overlooking Damascus.

British and Gulf TV stations are again running interviews with dozens of Syrian soldiers taken prisoner by rebel forces and transferred to Free Syrian Army centers in South Turkey. But this time, they are being aired in conjunction with those two developments, indicating pivotal and coordinated military action inside the embattled country, or even the start of western intervention against the Assad regime.

The reported British incursion, if confirmed, occurred at the tail end of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s 24-hour visit to Israel Tuesday morning and would have posed a direct challenge to his repeated warning that Moscow would not tolerate Western military intervention in Syria and actively prevent it. Similar warnings have issued from Tehran.
As for the timing, the double military drive against Assad also occurred hours before a NATO “consultation” in Brussels on the shooting down of a Turkish warplane by Syria last Friday, June 22, which Ankara stated Monday “must not go unpunished.”

British forces in Syria, Assad presidential compound said under attack

British Special Forces crossed from Turkey into Northern Syria today. The British troops have penetrated up to ten kilometers into Syrian territory. Now the Brits are awaiting the reaction of the Russians, the Iranians and the Chinese to this incursion to decide which way they go next. This is an unprecedented

This is somewhat of what Charles Krauthhammer said tonight on FOX 's special report ..That this with Turkey's movements could turn into a major Middle east conflict..I have been thinking that something like this could be in the works after last months bilderberg meetings,that this was their agenda.NATO condemned the downing of a Turkish jet by Syria last week as “completely unacceptable” but gave no indication it would take retaliatory action. The prime minister of Turkey, however, said his country would react militarily to any future violations along its border. Expect the European and North American domestic terror threat levels in both government and media to also be raised as western involvement increases in Syria – and beyond.They will use the Right of protection act,IMHO..

heres the panel with Krauthammer video very good,very indepth..

Me too It certifiably will be interesting to see how Putin reacts to this one . The bear might get a little more grumpier and hungry for control as this plays on out .

So now, the US and Britain have special forces in Syria getting weapons to the rebels. Is this right?
