Je vais citer Michael Rivero de whatreallyhappened.com (excellent blog par ailleurs) concernant cet événement
"From this report, it seems that the Typhoons never actually saw the incoming planes. It is merely ASSUMED they were Syrian. But why would Assad do something that provocative ? Russia just refinanced Cyprus’ debt on the condition that no air strikes against Syria be allowed from there. So Assad has little reason to worry about Cyprus.

It is at this point that we recall Israel has a long history of false flag attacks to trick other nations into war. When Israel attacked the USS Liberty and initially tried to frame Egypt for it, Israel used unmarked planes that could be confused for planes the Egyptians were using at the time. And only last Tuesday, Israel launched two missiles towards Syria in what appears to have been an attempt to provoke Assad into an overt military action against either Israel or the US warships, to kick-start the war. Israel claims the missiles were am unannounced test, but tests are always announced ahead of time to give civilian traffic time to clear the test area. So we know Israel is up to their usual games to start a war other peoples’ children will have to die in. It makes more sense that Israel is behind this than Assad engaging in pointless provocations."

Résumé en français. Les avions n’ont pas été formellement identifiés et il pourrait tout aussi bien s’agir d’avions se faisant passer pour des avions Syriens, c.à.d. que les spécialistes du coup fourré, Israël pourrait avoir tenté une n-ième provocation pour essayer d’embraser le conflit qu’ils cherchent tant (n’oublions pas les missiles balistiques de la semaine dernière ni l’affaire du Liberty de 1967).
Assad n’est pas assez stupide à mon avis, pour aller provoquer des réactions en ce moment, surtout envers Chypre qui à eu l’offre alléchante du rachat de ses dettes par la Russie si elle refusait toute participation au conflit.

Je pense que Michael Rivero est correcte dans son analyse (comme très souvent).
