"The latest disruption to U.S. media outlets dealt out by the Syrian
Electronic Army may be a precursor for warfare in the digital age.
One
aspect of the frontal assault that ought not be overlooked is the
timing: The SEA, which supports strongman President Bashar al-Assad,
knocked down websites of the New York Times, Huffington Post and
Twitter, a few hours after US officials indicated the US may launch
missile strikes against the Syrian government."
If SYRIA can do this, what of China and Russia? Everbody knows society is more dependent on the internet than anything else.

Ahead of the US strike on Syria, the Israeli security cabinet in special session Wednesday, Aug. 28, ordered the partial mobilization of select, qualitative IDF reserve forces: Rocket, Air Force, missile interception, Home Defense command and intelligence units.

But analysts warned that if the Western attack on Syria over its alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians was aimed at striking the Syrian army or toppling the regime of President Bashar Assad, this would prompt a retaliation from Iran and Hezbollah against Israel.
“In the event of a qualitative [Western military] strike that aims to change the balance of power in Syria, Hezbollah will fight on various fronts,” the senior source said.
“A large-scale Western strike on Syria will plunge Lebanon virtually and immediately into the inferno of a war with Israel,” the source said, clearly referring to the possibility of Hezbollah firing rockets into Israel.
“However, if the Western attack is limited to certain targets in Syria, then, Hezbollah will not intervene,” the source added.
Clouds of war are gathering over Syria amid signs that Western powers could attack the strife-torn country within days.
U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel said U.S. forces in the region were “ready to go,” as Washington and its European and Middle Eastern partners honed plans to punish Assad for a chemical attack last week that killed hundreds of civilians in eastern Ghouta outside Damascus.

"Therefore, if the U.S. or any Western nation launches a military campaign against Syria, then Israel will find itself under an extensive Syrian attack."
"The Middle East will become engulfed in never-ending flames if Israel and the United States use chemical weapons as a pretext for their aggressions. We won't sit with our arms crossed while aggression against Syria becomes dangerous, affecting the security of the whole world, not just the Middle East. It's possible to say unambiguously that a process of war against Syria could lead to an all-out world war. The responsibility for that will rest on the U.S. and the Zionist entity's shoulders."
"We want to strongly warn against any military attack in Syria. There will definitely be perilous consequences for the region," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Abbas Araqchi told a news conference. "These complications and consequences will not be restricted to Syria. It will engulf the whole region."

"The Obama administration moved closer to military action against Syria on Monday as Secretary of State John Kerry said the government of Bashar Assad used chemical weapons against its own people and cynically tried to cover it up."
Again, Damascus is a close friend of Tehran who is an ally of Moscow. I doubt Iran and Russia will sit by if Syria is attacked. Syria is no Iraq.
