A top figure in Israeli Ministry of Strategic Affairs, Sima Shine, has issued a statement today urging that Israel unconditionally back regime change in Syria, no matter who replaces President Bashar Assad, simply to harm Iran.
“Israel’s main strategic threat is Iran, not Syria,” Shine declared, insisting that Israel should base all strategic policies on “what harms Iran and what serves Israel’s agenda of confronting it.”
Since Assad is an ally of Iran, Shine reasoned, regime change in Syria is vital, and if Assad survived weakened by the war that would be even worse because he’d be even more dependent on Iran.
Shine even conceded that this might mean handing Syria over to the al-Qaeda backed jihadist rebels, saying that there were “no good options” on Syria but that anything that really stuck it to Iran must be preferable by default.
So it is true when they say that Israel is in love with Al-Queada.
And there you have it. The reason our nobel-peace price winning president is about to embark the US on yet another war that has little to do with US interests.
It has been abundantly clear for some time that the rogue state of Israel wants to destroy Syria as the first part of an attack on Iran, so we shouldn't be surprised. The leaders of the rogue state seem perfectly happy with lining up with the Wahabbi, Saudi and US backed terrorists that are trying to tear Syria apart. I think liberal-lefties need to get real and see the Syrian issue for what it is – part of a zioUS effort to establish regional hegemony, an imperialist venture. The liberal-left was taken in by US/UK propaganda regarding Libya, we need to ensure that it doesn't happen again. Has nobody noticed that the Arab Spring has not been supported by the West in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey or Jordan? For us the least bad outcome is a victory for Assad's forces. A victory for Assad would be a defeat for Israel, I, for one, hope it happens.
dream on Fool that and your coming Messiah will never happen Iran is not a made up 60yr bastion on occupied Palestinian land but more than 5thousand plus yrs.
This is the only thing about Syria that appeals to policy makers in DC. It is only serving the demands of the Israel Lobby. That is why the policy makers push to do something that is opposed by overwhelming numbers of Americans. It is not for Americans.
The zionist state won't rest until all his neighbouring countries are torn apart into endless civil wars and all its infrastructures and national heritage is destroyed.
So this rogue state can continue its domination over the whole region.
And Israel regime change needed for the future of humanity.
isrqel is trying its best to start a bloody sectarian war between muslims similar with as much carnage as the iran iraq war of the 80's which it also helped start
I told you so for months now. While idiots who think they are "pundits" were claiming Israel was more worried about Islamists running Syria, I told you for months now that Israel's entire goal was to destroy Syria's (and Hizballah's in Lebanon) ability to function in an Iran war. That is the SOLE purpose of the Syrian crisis. No one even cares who ends up running Syria as long as Syria has no effective military to aid Iran.
Now they admit it.
Israel has repeatedly bombed the Syrian Army so how is that not supporting regime change? What of course our odious friend means is that the US must unconditionally support regime change by sending US troops to fight and die because Israeli troops can only kill women and kids. Ask Hezbollah.
