Israel’s Minister for Strategic Affairs Moshe Ya’alon told Israel Radio on Thursday that Israeli officials were in close touch with their American counterparts about the latest developments in Syria.
He added that at the current juncture there was no fear that Syria would use its alleged chemical weapons against Israel.
Ya’alon refused to comment on media reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had secretly met with Jordan’s King Abdullah in Amman to discuss Syria’s alleged stockpile of chemical weapons.
During the meeting, Netanyahu proposed a coordinated Israeli-Jordanian lightning air strike to destroy Syria’s alleged stockpile of chemical weapons.
Jordanians, however, have reportedly declined the option over concerns that it would cause chemical fallout around the target sites.
Israel then proposed a second option, a comprehensive joint military incursion into Syria. The operation would include at least 8,000 soldiers entering Syria from different directions to neutralize the alleged chemical weapons sites.
The Jordanians did not support the Israeli proposals, but they did not completely reject them either.
Foreign-backed militants, however, have reportedly formed a company which has already used chemical weapons in battle against Syrian armed forces. However, in their propaganda, they have tried to incriminate the Syrian army for using such weapons against civilians.
On December 22, Syrian rebels used chemical weapons against the Syrian Army in the town of Daraya, located eight kilometers southwest of Damascus. At least seven Syrian soldiers were killed after they were attacked by a chemical weapon which produced a toxic yellow gas.
Syrian militants have also threatened to contaminate Syria’s drinking water supply in a bid to kill all Alawite Shias and the supporters of President Bashar al-Assad.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011, and many people, including large numbers of security forces, have been killed in the turmoil.
The Syrian government says the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and there are reports that a very large number of the militants are foreign nationals.

The U.S. getting involved with Syria is going to anger the Russians, setting up more conflict that is bound to escalate…the stage is being set in the middle east region…the people of the world have to Occupy Earth need to Occupy your mind, WW3 we don’t want!…
The US has no reason to be over there and Israel is just pulling the strings of America’s government lackeys. This is all about control, Israel’s control through the banking elite and the sales of weapons while committing genocide.
IS RA EL Isis Ra and El three gods one religion. All false.
It is about world control and population reduction the genocide of 6.5 billion humans on this world.
Israel wired the WTC for demolition, Israel attacked the USS Liberty and the USS Cole they were partners in crime of the Oklahoma City FBI building bombing. How long will we Americans allow this to continue?
After bomber planes will drop some ‘piece and security’ to towns be sure one thing brainwash press will stop write what will happen next. So everybody will be happy then. Wiping every two floor house in Syria would make American happy too. Just no more sad story in news all over our government did niece thing with that epic nuke like bombing. So that was good.
Isntreal says jump and the USSA pissboys ask how high? Isnt this act getting a little old? Is anyone a bit sick and tired of American blood being shed for that shitty little cuntry?
They had better do something about the Syrian Government. This is so inhumane. These are the people of their country ; If they kill the people, who will they have left to govern ?
IT is good, finally the United States will intervine in Syrias conflict. Many times I’m pleading to stop this fight, because it is their children who suffer the most.
