Talk:March 2017 Israel–Syria incident

Notability
I think this is very notable, and deserves its own article. There are 3 main things that distinguish it from other Israeli strikes on Syria during the civil war: first is that Israel clearly acknowledged they did the attack (no plausible deniability). Second, Syria fired their S-200 missiles against the Israeli jets, which I believe has only happened a single time before during the civil war. Third though, and what is emerging as the most notable, is that an anti-ballistic missile shot down an S-200 missile; think about how ridiculous that is... S-200 missile is launched, flying at upwards to 7 Mach, chasing the fighter plane, and Israel responds with an Arrow 3 flying at 9+ Mach to intercept the S-200 missile? I didn't know such a thing was possible! Ethanbas (talk) 09:54, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I believe you are correct, this was a very notable incident. I'm not concerned with notability issues here. Hopefully other editors will come in and expand the article beyond a stub, though. While I have great respect for the State of Israel, I am not an expert on it's defense forces and air force, military strategy and engagement protocols. I will be watching the article, and its expansion, with great interest! Thanks! Juneau Mike (talk) 12:39, 17 March 2017 (UTC)

Hebrew article
Note that there is an article in the Hebrew Wikipedia about this, which might have some useful information for the English article. Ethanbas (talk) 23:03, 17 March 2017 (UTC)
