The attacks in southern Syria are part of a new policy aimed at protecting what Israel calls its “security zone” in the region. Syria’s new government has condemned that policy.

    Adding to what the other guy said, Syria really doesn’t wanna get into a war right now. They still haven’t unified the armed factions or rebuilt the economy or really gotten themselves in any shape to go to war with Israel, and Israel knows that. They’re doing this to weaken the Syrian government and, hopefully, push the country back into civil war.

      Israel and turkey, the greatest thorn in all our sides. Why do they have to fuck up every good thing in the ME?

          Yeah :/ a lot of this is because of imperialism a century ago, the effects are still felt today.
