We have wanted to remove the Soviet spawn Syrian commies since Nixon and now that time has come—if Obama is reelected the Islamists in both countries will win and both America and the Jews will be constantly attacked—but if the GOP wins in November conservative influences (aka shock n awe or else) will persuade the Sunni Muslim radicals to not only make nice but to convince their Shia rectum brothers to think twice.
Firstly, Syria is not a threat to israel under assad. Allowing Sunni radicals to take over syria makes Israel virtually surrounded. People were cheering like you when mubarak was deposed in egypt and look, the treaty between israel and egypt is shaky at best and will likely be null and void should there be a coming altercation in the region.
Sunnis are not better than shiites. I would much rather have a person in power who is a strong man and clamps down on islamic extremism (Assad), than any alternative. Muslim nations need strong men to squash any religious extremism, it is their mentality, they are not suited for democracy, the radicals eventhough less in number than the moderates intimidate the living hell out of other muslims forcing them to agree with them else face some sort of retribution.
