It’s a rare strategic blunder by Israel.

aren’t there Iranians in there?

Yes, and this is really what this is about. Anyone keeping up with the news has read that Israel says an Iranian base in Syria is unacceptable... and that probably includes weaponry as well.

Israel has struck Syria fairly routinely and without a response and furthermore, of course, Syria gets a lot of Russian support in addition.

So, the Russians have made condemnations but they haven't acted on this either.

Just dont attack sovereign nations that have not done a single thing to you.

You mean like the U.S. attacking Iraq?

And anyway, Iran and Syria have supplied Hezbollah with weapons they've used against Israel for decades, so your contention is full of shiite. And speaking of shiite, your brain has been turned into it by your anti-Israel bias.

I’ve noticed a whole lot of noobs (signups within the last year) who have a bug up their ass about Israel. And not coincidentally, most of them defend Iran and the nuke deal.

And they seem proud of it,
which passes me by. The only
democracy in the ME, under
existential threat for decades,
and these fools dump on them.

Six were fired ... see Debka for more details - they are quoting unnamed foreign media. Same site attacked in 2013, according to Hizballah’s Al Mayadeen. Last week’s strike killed Iranian and Hezbollah officers.
