In summary: “Because Israel will always win”

That is the core reason that Israel is still on the map, still exists.

There is no diplomacy keeping things together. No trade agreements. Israel gives Palestinians everything that their so-called allies will not. Palestinians still call for their elimination.

Musloids understand one thing.

Hezbollah bigwigs like their Mercedes, Rolexes, and liquor. Can’t enjoy those things if you’re dead.

Hezbollah has been greatly hurt in the fight, with Iran, against Assad - have they not?

They are not fighting against Assad. They are on the other side...with Turkey and the US and the Saudis.

And the Muslim Brotherhood.

Hizbollah will be crushed,Damascus will be fallen Isaiah 17, and the God of Israel never slumbers nor sleeps and His eyes are always upon here. These wars, or one( know not pre trib or during tribulation or maybe Ez 38-39?? Never the less besides the Iron Dome, Israel’s nukes, Neutron bombs; they have G!D on their side. Whomever attacks they should well prevail as against Hizbollah then creating the new temple...maybe al aksa mosque will kick off a few secondary explosions

Hezbollah and Iran are on the side of Assad. Hezbollah has thousands of fighters in Syria helping to prop up Assad.

?? No, it’s Hezbollah with Iran and Assad, fighting against rebels backed by Turkey, the Saudis, and the USA, in varying degrees and locations.

They love being a thorn in the side of Israel and if they did an all out attack their international sympathy / graft gravy train from the Arab states and UN would dry up.

The Writer fails to mention the hundreds even thousands of Hezbollah fighters who were wiped out when Hezbollah decided (or was ordered by Iran) to send fighters into the Syrian meat grinder.

“Hezbollah has been greatly hurt in the fight, with Iran, against Assad - have they not?”

I was a tad confused by the posting. Hezbollah, Iran, Russia and Assad are allies. On the other side is Isis and a large number of Shea terrorists groups. To further confuse matters, Sunni Saudi Arabia initially financed and supplied the Shea terrorists in a bid to end Assad’s presidency. I don’t know if that continues because the newly empowered terrorists (Or, freedom fighters, depending on your own view) are slaughtering everybody, Sunni and Shea alike.

You definitely need a program to keep the players straight.

Simple enough: because they’d get their asses royally kicked.

Any other explanation is simply bull.

“Sunni Saudi Arabia initially financed and supplied the Shea terrorists in a bid to end Assad’s presidency.”

Your analysis is dead on. Just one gentle comment, it is Shia not Shea.
