President Obama expressed indirect support for Israel's recent suspected bombing of a Syrian weapons convoy headed to Lebanon Saturday in an interview with Telemundo:
PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, you know, I'm not going to comment on what happened in Syria yesterday. I'll let the Israeli government confirm or deny whatever strikes that they've taken. What I have said in the past and I continue to believe is that the Israelis justifiably have to guard against the transfer of advanced weaponry to terrorist organizations like Hezbollah. And you know, we coordinate closely with the israelis recognizing that they are very close to Syria, very close to Lebanon.
