KernowDamo: Netanyahu's now permanent seizure of Syrian territory is going down like cold sick, so are Israel's HTS allies now becoming firmer foes?
Right, so as I covered in a video yesterday things have soured significantly between Syria and Israel following the downfall of the Assad regime, with the new Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, or HTS administration now in charge, it never slowed Israel down an inch having invaded Syria themselves whilst HTS were still fighting and subsequently set about seizing more Syrian territory around the Golan Heights, and up towards Mount Hermon, the highest peak in Syria, which lay within a demilitarised zone near the border of Golan, on the Syrian-Lebanese border, giving Israel a possible alternative route to attack Lebanon by in the near future.
Netanyahu has declared that occupation of this newly acquired territory will be forever, but by doing so appears to have burned his bridges with HTS, they having fulfilled their usefulness and who cares if both HTS and Israel happen to be CIA assets right? It wouldn’t be the first time Netanyahu has shafted his allies in the US after all, but by illegally annexing chunks of Syria, he’s playing a dangerous game, he’s certainly not helping his case in the eyes of the world, those world leaders still supporting him will look all the more degenerate and as for HTS? Well there boss al-Jolani has had a few words to say to Netanyahu over his claims to Syrian territory.
Right, so I seem to making this point a lot of late, but if you give Benjamin Netanyahu an inch, he’ll take a mile and in this case it is miles and miles of Syrian territory, territory he is now declaring to be Israel’s and that this is going to be forever. So much for temporary holding of territory, though this permanent occupation of a chunk of Syria at this point extends, it is being alleged, only to the remainder of the Golan Heights that Israel didn’t already occupy, they have held Golan since 1967, but only around half of it. Now they intend to keep hold of all of it and Netanyahu has laid responsibility for that, upon Donald Trump over Twitter, via his Prime Minister of Israel account, saying: ‘Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, tonight, at a press conference: "Yesterday, a new and dramatic chapter was opened in the history of the Middle East. Yesterday, the Assad regime in Syria, the main link in Iran's axis of evil, crumbled after 54 years. Iran had invested billions in Syria, and it is all gone. This was a brutal dictatorship that trampled its citizens and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of them. And regarding us, it fostered hostility and hatred, attacked us in the Yom Kippur War, served as a forward position for Iranian terrorism and constituted a pipeline for the transfer of weapons from Iran to Hezbollah. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my friend, President-elect Donald Trump for acceding to my request to recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights, in 2019.
