Israeli Took Soil Samples at Syrian Nuke -David HorovitzAware that intelligence communities were not entirely convinced that Syria was building a nuclear facility in the summer of 2007, Israel sent 12 members of [a] commando unit into Syria in two helicopters to collect soil samples outside the nuclear site.
The commandos' mission was almost exposed when a Syrian patrol drove past the landing site where the helicopters were parked.
These revelations are contained in a new book by Ronen Bergman, The Secret War with Iran, that is being published next week in the U.S. Bergman writes, "The results provided clear-cut proof of the joint nuclear project."
The following month, the Israel Air Force destroyed the facility.

This would explain Israels assuredness on the subject. Whenever "secret government info" is exposed by author's who obviously stand to profit if people find the intrigue compelling, it is hard to know for sure oif this is all true, or if it happened as he reports, but I would not be surpirsed to find out that it is.
Israeli intelligence has proven better than US intelligence. Although, as you point out, this report does not come from Israeli intelligence sources.
