6. I guess this is one time that Israel forgot the "spin"

You know, scud missiles attacked them first, or whatever.

But the Officials in Israel are not happy with what the WH did:

Israeli officials are once again “furious” with the Obama Administration today after yesterday’s White House confirmation that Israel was responsible for the Wednesday attack on Syria’s port city of Latakia.

The strike targeted a Syrian air base on Wednesday evening, and the White House confirmed it was an Israeli attack to CNN the following morning. Israeli officials say they don’t believe Syria will retaliate for the attack.

But analysts on Israeli TV stations expressed concern that now that there was a public acknowledgement of Israeli culpability in the attack, it could start a regional war, and it would be the White House’s fault for spilling the beans.

I assume the answer to your "WTF" question is that felt it wasn't in their interest to allow Syria to put in new missile batteries of advanced missiles that could be delivered to Hezbollah.
