For what it's worth, the Al-Jazeera Web site has reported that the September air raid over Syria was carried out by the US Air Force. It quoted both Israeli and Arab sources and said that two American jets armed with tactical nuclear weapons carried out the attack on the partially constructed Syrian nuclear site. Israeli F-15 and F-16 jets supposedly provided cover for the US planes.
One must consider the source, but is it possible this was a practice run? A small coordinated effort by the Israelis and the US to work out any kinks in coordinating such an attack on a larger scale? Al-Jazeera also said each US plane carried one tactical nuclear weapon and that the nuclear site was hit by one bomb and was totally destroyed.
