Reports: US, Not Israel Struck Syrian Site with Nuke By: Mark W Adams

The story now being blared across the world by Al Jazeera is that the U.S., not Israel, destroyed Syrian nuclear reactor -- and the US planes were armed with -- and used -- tactical nukes and were provided cover by the IDF.

From Jerusalem Post:

The September 6 raid over Syria was carried out by the US Air Force, the Al-Jazeera Web site reported Friday. The Web site quoted Israeli and Arab sources as saying that two US jets armed with tactical nuclear weapons carried out an attack on a suspected nuclear site under construction.

The sources were quoted as saying that Israeli F-15 and F-16 jets provided cover for the US planes.

The sources added that each US plane carried one tactical nuclear weapon and that the site was hit by one bomb and was totally destroyed.

Is this even within the realm of possibility? Can we get away with nuking something and nobody knows? The Russians and Chinese just say nothing? Nobody reports a mushroom cloud? No reports of radiation by an outraged Syrian ambassador? Nadda?

Really?

This doesn't pass the smell test.
