  1. “We have destroyed your military capabilities and will continue to do so. We hope friendship grows from this shared experience.”

  2. Any project manager with the real life experience knows that the last 10% last longer than the first 90%

  4. 80% of an entire country’s military equipment destroyed in what was it – two days of bombings? Absolutely breathtaking.

  5. Really hope Turkey can provide a stable government for Syria. Add Israel into the mix of helping with rebuilding this country..That be a big blow to Putin and Iran.

  6. Russia is still in Syria with military bases no group can take over and Assad is in Moscow. Obviously the plan is to wait for a civil war and insert Assad as leader again. They invaded Crimea using their navy base there. This is their MO. The former pro-Russia Ukrainian president who is now in Moscow got documents leaked about his plans. He is to take over power in Ukraine post the invasion. They would imprison Zelensky, annex a third of Ukraine, and then have another third be led by the former president who was prepared by the Russian intelligence services already. Assad is given the same instructions now.

    If the Syrian rebels wanted to keep these weapons they should either have won the war, which they have not done as Russia is still around, killed Assad, or made a deal with Israel. And they have achieved none of the most obvious goals hence no one can trust them right now. I think they didn’t really have the strength to kick Russia out and Russia is working closely with Iran. They are supposedly allowed to keep their navy bases despite having used chemical weapons on Syrian children and bombed hospitals.

  8. The bias is strong. Israelis obviously had a reason to be worried and here we are on multiple Reddit sites, bloggers pushing that Israel must be destroyed. Big push starting on s/Syria.

    I feel sorry for the Syrians. They will just be pawns again.

  9. If Israel does what it did, the Arab street and the rebels will hate Israel, have wild conspiracy theories about Israel creating a “Greater Israael” and would have no weapons/border land.

    If Israel didn’t do what it did, the Arab street and the rebels will hate Israel, have wild conspiracy theories about Israel creating “Greater Israel” and would have weapons/border land.

    Just one thing changed.

  10. And a 99% reduction in any chance of getting along with the new neighbor.   

    I am not saying these Islamists were likely going to be friends. But peace was possible. They had fought Hezbollah, Iran, and Russia. They had fought the Assad regime, who iirc, had waged 54 years of war against Israel.  

    There was a chance at turning a new page. But now there is no chance of peace. How is this a victory? 

  11. Hamas actions were like the 6- day war.. IDF has crippled Hamas in Gaza so it is completely a guerrilla force only with no real leadership.. Hezbollah is crippled with 20 leaders killed in a month and 2,500 injured by pagers.. Iran and russia kicked out of Syria with Assad taken from power.. IDF in all golan, south Lebanon and Gaza with oil in Hudaidah port destroyed.. I’m sure they’re one step closer to victory.. if October 6th, 2023 you told me Sinwar, Haniyeh, Deif, AND Nasrallah would be dead and Assad defeated in a years time I’d laugh at even one of those possibilities happening soon without a trigger.. then you say Ukraine would also counter invade Russia and North Korea coming to help with only 4 members of one direction left alive I’d really stare at my bingo card then ask.. ‘what else Trump will become a felon and get reelected?? That’s as likely as South Korea declaring martial law and someone attempting to kill a USA presidential candidate twice!!’

  12. It’s wild that so many people have framed this as Israeli-backed rebels (they’re not), when in fact Israel is disarming the rebels in a way it never bothered doing with Assad.

  13. They’ve turned up the probability settings on the simulation.
