Amir’s latest video hints that Israel may target Assad, since he is responsible for giving Iran his country to attack Israel from.

See Comment 41. They may hit the palace, I guess.

Whatever Obama was or wasn’t, I still remember the critics trashing Obama when the Saudi king died during his presidency.

Obama didn’t get to Riyadh quickly enough to join the mourning, he sent Biden. Heck, the British lowered their flag to half-staff in the Saudi king’s honor.

Trump is much more respectful of the money men of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf, the rulers of the jihadist heartland.

...Israel may target Assad...

What happens then? Israel has lived with the Assad’s for years. Just spanking him when necessary.

I don’t know. Just reporting what Amir said in the latest video.

It makes sense in a way. Maybe also an implicit threat to other neighbors who might be persuaded by Israel’s enemies to let their country be used that way.

#8. Haaretz is hardcore leftist, semi-Marxist and always anti Netanyahu. If you read something in it, Trust but Verify, twice.

“A pro-Assad commander said Israeli fighter jets struck a Syria army position south of Damascus, adding that there were no casualties. Syrian state media reported that Syrian air defenses fired at two Israeli missiles, destroying both in the Kiswah area.”

Baghdad Bob?
