Here’s a Toronto Star report about Syria’s Bashar Assad stating he wished Syria wouldn’t have downed a Turkish plane last week. Editors left out one of his comments:
Assad: I wish downed Turkish jet had been Israeli
Now why do you suppose the Toronto Star would omit that?

Nice catch. I’m surprised Assad didn’t blame the whole thing on a Zionist plot.
Assad’s people had plenty to say about the Zionists today. Prepare to have a stroke:

Probably Haroon edited the piece.
By Jove, I think you’re right!
