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.

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

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?

It’s preemptive self defense - a special thing available to Israel only .

+1.

When Russia does this, it's violating the sovereignty of another country and it's an outrage. When Israel does this, it's creating a buffer zone and defending itself which Israel has the right to do. This is why no one takes the American / Zionist government seriously anymore.

Okay Vlad.

They’re actually right on the money, whether a Vlad or not. Only morons at this point are not appalled by our blatant hypocrisy in global affairs.

Only naïfs expect nations to conduct foreign policy with any goal other than self interest.

Once you learn that, you’ll be far better positioned to understand global affairs.

Whatever. I don’t accept your thesis on this subject, or on any subject. Israel’s interests and ours don’t align, no matter how much you try to argue otherwise.

Really?

Is it in our interest for Iran to be weakened?

Is it in our interest to prevent radical Islamist non-state actors from possessing chemical weapons and degrading their projection capabilities?

(Hint: the answer is “yes”)

Right…you were all like yay!! Free Syria!! Down with Bashar! Great news!!!

But when it’s time to enable the new government, you’re all like no, you cannot have air defense. Or a navy. Or passports and vital records. Stay poor and dysfunctional, we like you that way. Live like slaves.

You need chemical weapons and advanced missiles to not live like slaves?

I care about US interests. Probably best for us for Syrian military capabilities to be degraded, at least until we learn more about intentions of the new gov’t.

So bombing chemical weapon stockpiles in civilian area will make Syria friendly to Israel? How many people has Israel killed in Syria? This is Syria’s Oct 7. Syria must invade Israel and destroy its ability to make war. This is why Israel is hated through out the world.

Yeah that sounds like a fab idea

Anyone who can’t admit Israel did the world a huge favor by destroying Syrian military capacity is thoroughly dishonest.

Hmmmm....what are the possible reasons Israel doesn't want Syria to have air defense?

Decisions, decisions.

Who said anything about Israel?

I'm talking about US interests.

As Americans (I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt here), which of the following options would you prefer?

(a) a fractured, failed state run by a group of anti-American militias WITH chemical weapons and one of the largest ballistic missile arsenals in the region

OR

(b) a fractured, failed state run by a group of anti-American militias WITHOUT chemical weapons or ballistic missiles

(Hint: the answer does NOT start with the same letter as the small, scaly animal that often ends up as roadkill on roads in TX).

Russia already evacuated their ships, personnel, and assets from the port of Tartus (where they have maintained a presence for 50+ years).

They'll have to move everything to their port on the Black Sea.

Because it's not in the US interest to do so. Who, other than Israel, would we use as a proxy to degrade Iran's capabilities?

lol more antisemitic brain rot. I guess seeing that Israel is still standing (and winning) and the consequences of Hamas’s disastrous mistake on Oct 7 is really hard to swallow.

meanwhile Turkey clarified that they were taking credit for an airstrike in the north, seemingly offended Israel was getting credit. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkey-hits-military-supplies-under-kurdish-control-north-syria-security-source-2024-12-10/

Does anyone thing that Russia giving up on Syria will actually allow it to consolidate and double down on Ukraine? Or will it be so demoralizing that it will weaken Putin?

Ukraine is the red line for Russia.
They will negotiate with Trump for exit strategy then play the long game.

right, nobody is wants an unstable rebel alliance to have all of Russia’s arms. Also all people in their right minds are glad the chemical weapons were destroyed.

Its looking more like the former at this time. It seems like they will get to keep the naval base and some airfields while not having to prop up Assad indefinitely. Things are fluid, so if that changes then this could be a loss for them. One of the big takeaways from the Pro-Russia sphere is to not freeze conflicts with the west, because that's just an excuse for them to rearm and then attack you.

You read it here first. This is a trade. Russia, leave Syria alone, and the Ukraine thing will get sorted out.

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?

It’s preemptive self defense - a special thing available to Israel only .

+1.

When Russia does this, it's violating the sovereignty of another country and it's an outrage. When Israel does this, it's creating a buffer zone and defending itself which Israel has the right to do. This is why no one takes the American / Zionist government seriously anymore.

Okay Vlad.

They’re actually right on the money, whether a Vlad or not. Only morons at this point are not appalled by our blatant hypocrisy in global affairs.

Only naïfs expect nations to conduct foreign policy with any goal other than self interest.

Once you learn that, you’ll be far better positioned to understand global affairs.

Whatever. I don’t accept your thesis on this subject, or on any subject. Israel’s interests and ours don’t align, no matter how much you try to argue otherwise.

Really?

Is it in our interest for Iran to be weakened?

Is it in our interest to prevent radical Islamist non-state actors from possessing chemical weapons and degrading their projection capabilities?

(Hint: the answer is “yes”)

Right…you were all like yay!! Free Syria!! Down with Bashar! Great news!!!

But when it’s time to enable the new government, you’re all like no, you cannot have air defense. Or a navy. Or passports and vital records. Stay poor and dysfunctional, we like you that way. Live like slaves.
