"...they can’t see how us pulling out of Syria takes away our leverage from constraining Iran in Syria."

Israel has been blowing up every Iranian base, depot, observation station, barracks, and anti-aircraft installion in Syria that they could find. I'm more that happy to leave the Iran/Syria problem to them.

You're just plain wrong. There is a pipeline of rockets going to Hezbollah from Iran through Syria now. They are now shipping them higher precision guidance systems as well. If we leave you are right though, I fear that if Iran continues to stay in Syria that Israel would have no other choice than a full scale invasion similar to ones conducted in 1982 and 2006 into Lebanon. That would throw more chaos into the Middle East, not less.
