The truth is unpleasant but it's the truth nevertheless. Israel is an alien country in the Middle East. It does not fit with the culture, language or political landscape of the region. It makes no effort at all to integrate with the environment where it chose to plonk itself. All it knows is violence and aggression because there is no way for it to survive without it. In the choice between justice and existence, it chose existence. So it keeps killing and invading, repeating the lies that "we do that so that our children have a peaceful life", but the truth is that every next generation of Israelis experiences the same threats and there is no peace for it except to kill and kill and kill.

“The line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties either—but right through every human heart—and through all human hearts.”

At this point, where one stands on Israel is a defining line for me.

Because Israel is so gosh darn special that no laws must apply to it?

I wasn’t clear - where one stands is a defining line for me, and those who blindly, unconditionally support Israel have made a choice in support of evil and deserve withering condemnation in my book.

Um, you're aware that virtually no one in the US "blindly, unconditionally" supports Israel, right?

The vast majority support a 2 state solution, loathe Netanyahu, oppose expansion of settlements, etc.

Virtually no one? Bro, wake TF up.

Here’s “no one” … let’s start with some U.S. senators, John Fetterman and Lindsay Graham. I’m not going to waste anyone’s time listing the other congressmen and women who have been equally corrupted by Israel.

Look it up yourself … so much for virtually no one in the U.S. (only basically everyone in our political class, save maybe Thomas Massie).

I don't think you understand the meaning of the words "blindly" and "unconditionally".

When I see what their official explanation is,

With Israel it is more helpful to look at what their long term goals are.
I think this is dangerous move by them, the people are tired of war and want to get out of military service and on with their lives.
Bibi needs trouble and war.

Israel is reinforcing its borders a bombing Assad’s weapons stores. They’re doing cleanup work. or do you think all of Assad’s chemical weapons should be up for grabs?

What did the Syrian passport and vital records office do to Israel?

Why does Israel want Syria to not have air defense or navy?

Simple. Israel thinks it is entitled to dominate the region. The US establishment blindly supports Israel's rights to take what it wants because "the Jewish state", the "right to exist", the "right to defend itself" or whatever other unique, super special rights they invented that apply to Israel and to Israel alone.

So you want the rebels to get ahold of Assad’s chemical weapons? dumb*ss.

I mean, pick a lane. This is either a "free liberated Syria, yay!" moment, or "remove chemical weapons from the hands of terrorists" moment.

Self defense, yo.

So you’re an Assad and Russia supporter now? I’m very confused! Is now when we take down the Ukrainian flags and put up Russian flags?

Good question. It is okay for Israel to take land and territory but not for Russia. It is okay for Israel to bomb civilians, schools, hospitals, civilian infrastructure, etc but it is not okay for Russia? Russia and Israel are the same…well Israel much much worst vs Russia.

Israel is NOT bombing civilian infrastructure in Syria. It’s bombing weapons and military installations. So I turn it on you - why is it OK for Turkey to be asserting its interests inside Syria but not OK for Israel to do the same?

Why does Israel want Syria to not have a navy, air defense or vital records offices?

If what you said is correct about the passport office, i can imagine a lot of Mossad members becoming syrian citizen.

On the contrary - it is you who doesn’t understand at all what those words mean. For example, what MORE would you need to see from either Fetterman or Graham to acknowledge what everyone else sees as “blind, unconditional - and actually, corrupt” support?

What more would they have to do, FFS?

Don’t bother answering - you’re a waste of time in this discussion.

Israel only bombs civilian infrastructure. Turkey is a member of the world community IN GOOD STANDING unlike Israel.

That Israel fights tooth and nail to not recognize? Can't have competition in the victimhood department you know.

Interesting that the vital records office was bombed. That cannot be an accident.
Makes me think that Israel is afraid of some secrets coming to light.

I still don’t understand. Israel is attacking because there is no more Assad and because they don’t who the next power broker will be.
Therefore this is because of something that has not happened but could turn into a threat?

I was speculating if vital records are gone it might make it easier for Mossad spies to pretend they are citizens of Syria and participate in the political transition.

lol they were getting rid of evidence of Israeli involvement with Bashar al-Assad. Most likely attacks on US personnel and stuff. The Israelis hate the US.

Hey welcome to the neighborhood.

Israel strikes Syria 480 times and seizes territory as Netanyahu pledges to change face of the Middle East
—
The collapse of the Assad regime has prompted a punishing military response from Israel, which has launched airstrikes at military targets across Syria and deployed ground troops both into and beyond a demilitarized buffer zone for the first time in 50 years.

The Israeli military on Tuesday said it had carried out about 480 strikes across the country over the past two days, hitting most of Syria’s strategic weapon stockpiles, while Defense Minister Israel Katz said the Israeli navy had destroyed the Syrian fleet overnight, hailing the operation as “a great success.”

https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/10/middleeast/israel-syria-assad-strikes-intl/index.html

Does this count as an act of war or do we have to wait till Syria unprovoked attack Israel because they hate Jews? what a peace loving country.

There’s no actual need to pick a lane … lots of different lanes exist. Personally I think destroying chemical weapons stores was an obvious and beneficial move and the UN should be thanking Israel for it. As for getting rid of Assad only time will tell if that ends up better for the Syrian people overall, but based on the track record of foreign interventions, it seems unlikely.
