"The US will likely 'go to war' in Israel with air and naval power if Syria or Iran become actively involved, retired 4-star general says"
The US will probably go to war in Israel if other countries get involved, a retired general said.
Ret. Gen. Barry McCaffrey said the US is keeping a close eye on countries like Iran and Syria.
The US on Sunday said it was sending an aircraft carrier strike group to patrol waters near Israel.
"I would suggest to you our support of Israel will be absolute, and if we see Syrian military intervention, active Iranian military intervention, we'll go to war," McCaffrey added."
