Washington is preventing Israel from making peace with Syria and instead is pushing it to wage war, the Arab country's government-owned daily Tishrin read on Monday.
The paper said that recent moves made by the US including supplying Israel with weapons and agreeing to a $30 billion aid-package are methods the country was implementing to push the Jewish state to wage war on Damascus.

Should an attack happen now, will Israel blame the U.S. ? The U.S. gets the blame for everything else might as well blame them for this too. I just dont see how giving the Israeli's $30 billion in aid constitutes pushing them to war with Syria.

Unbelievable spin. It's the Israeli leadership that's been stalling any talks with Syria and accusing Syria of preparing for war, when in fact all Syria is doing is beefing up it's defences due to threatening moves by Israel.
The "owned" US administration has pledged to help Israel in any war - whether Israel starts it or not - but for Israel to try to blame it on the US is amazing.
Just look at all the calls for war with Iran and who are some of the more vocal champions of aggression towards Iran. Israel is calling the shots, you just have to look at all the money they are using to buy US government officials and how many of those government officials are making so many trips to Israel, whilst ignoring their constituents back home. AIPAC doesn't make handouts without expecting a return, and that return is US government support in fighting Israels enemies. In effect, US government officials are accepting money and pledging that US personnel will die to protect Israel and fight it's wars.

I agree with you, and believe me that Iran's moves have not gone unnoticed but I just dont understand Israeli news putting the U.S. at fault in the headlines here.

The jerusalem post is taking that information from a Syrian newspaper apparently, and as the excerpt in the article says.

The claim is being made by the Syrian newspaper, not by the Israelis.

I never said i believed what the Syrian newspaper claimed. If you read my previous post you can see that I actually don't believe it.

Okay, could the statement or allegations made by the Arab source be true?? could the U.S. possibly by forcing the Israeli's to attack Syria?? I know it sounds far fetched but given the fact that Israel has foolishly followed the brain-child of the U.S. in the roadmap plan. It could be possible that the Israeli's would be stupid enough to attack Syria on the orders of the U.S.

If anything, the US has probably stopped Israel from attacking Syria.
Whatever feelings you've got for the US administration, the guys are not stupid. Letting, or even encouraging, Israel to attack Syria will result in chaos in the Middle East.
It would suck in all neighbouring countries, oil would go through the roof and would probably start WWIII.
Somehow, I doubt the Americans want that.
