A week before Trump leaves office and Pompos loses authority.

Israeli warplanes carried out intense airstrikes on eastern Syria early Wednesday, apparently targeting positions and arms depots of Iran-backed fighters. Dozens of fighters were killed or wounded, according to an opposition war monitor...

...Secretary of State Mike Pompeo discussed Tuesday’s airstrike with Mossad Chief Yossi Cohen, Israel’s spy agency, at Café Milano in Washington on Monday.

Seems the outgoing administration isn't satisfied with burning down the country - they want to burn down the world as well.

Your post gives an erroneous impression of the situation.

The Israelis have been conducting 100's of aerial attacks against Hezbollah and other Iranian-backed forces in Syria for YEARS. Yes, on a weekly basis for YEARS.

This has been a secret only if you have chosen not to know about it.

The war against Israel has been going on since the diaspora. In modern times since 1948. What most people don't understand is that Israel has never seen peace. EVER. The entire country is on a war footing.

IMHO the assembled enemy nations could cause the most chaos by declaring peace with Israel. And sticking to it.
