The media thrives on panic and war, it shots good it sells good and it is a great source for ex military man and military reporters to make ends meat. It seems strange because both sides (Israel and Syria) say they are not interested in a war, and after the second Lebanon war Israel actually behave – so it sound like a media war.
The sad thing is you can not truest the army no more because different voices inside the army tell the press different stories.
In the bottom line – stop reading ynet it is a reliable source for gossip and nonsense, try some haaretz and foreign press, even aljazeera in some cases may be less bias.
