ISRAHELL UNIT 8200 SECTION OF IDF IN CONTACT WITH MIDLEVEL SYRIAN OFFICERS http://www.acus.org/natosource/how-obama-administration-using-social-media-disarm-syria’s-chemical-arsenal
Charles Duelfer, a former CIA officer who served as the deputy chairman of the U.N. weapons-inspection team for Iraq and later as the head of the U.S. effort to find those weapons after the 2003 invasion, said there were two kinds of goals these types of operations can accomplish. “You want to transmit a message of deterrence,” he says. “It’s not just Bashar at the top that will be held responsible, it’s others down the food chain, too. You also want to know where the stuff is.”
The effort to reach out to midlevel officers is separate from other initiatives by the Syrian opposition to persuade officers to defect. The initiative to contact the Syrian officers, according to U.S. and Western officials, has been aided by Israel’s Unit 8200, the section of the Israel Defense Forces in charge of signal intelligence, or the monitoring of electronic communications.
[ed notes;its safe to say these contacts are two-fold...basically bribe officers to defect and lie,wich most loyal officers will refuse,and then there are those who are defecting or will defect and work with israhell,propagandizing on their behalf in order to justify an israhelli and zionist ran us intervention on false grounds...
