I've Been Thinking:

Public statements are important learning tools.
Just as important are comments made by those people intentionally kept away from the public and the press.

The head of research for Israel's military intelligence is Yossi Baidatz.
Baidatz is a brigadier general, a man with a very long face made even longer by his heavily receding hairline.

Baidatz briefed the Israeli Cabinet about the current threats in the region.
Baidatz predicted that Hamas plans to do in the West Bank what they did in Gaza.
Now, this should come as no surprise - Hamas wants total control and Fatah has not yet figured out how to effectively deal with them.

Baidatz also said that Syria is watching Israel very closely.
Baidatz thinks Syria is anticipating an Israeli strike.
Syria's mindset is significant.
Right now Syria is very twitchy - we have no way of knowing how they will react to situations.
Right now, Syria is a wild card.
