....”Looks like”... maybe the beginning of the conflicts described throughout scripture, and prophesied to occur at the end of this age.”.....
We’ve been here before though since it’s Syria it does raise the brow more than a little.... Even the Muslim looking for the maudi are chatting about it. ....
Syria has a significant place in their end times predictictions...which the leadership is using to gain the numbers of fighters there, many who believe this to be the place where it will begin and gladly go.
With all the bombing already there they’ve pretty much ruined the infrastructure in their main cities....and many of the rural communities. If the US bombs as well then the country itself will be “a wasteland”.
Iran is gearing up for they know that if Syria is lost to them Tehran is next and Iran will fall....so like Assad they will fight back with everything they have...including chemical.
At this juncture I do think only God intervening will slow it down....if it esculates...I can see Russia and the Muslim hoards swooping in on Israel...and there they will indeed be destroyed and that not by any military.
Honestly didn’t expect to see this in my lifetime...but have been tracking the developments for it for many years so am not surprised it has come to this place....Still Obama may back down...and that will slow it down once more.
I understand this to occur at the end. What's shaping up now will lead to the destruction of Damascus, "Mystery Babylon", and major casualties for Israel. IF this is "it", we will probably see exchanges of nuclear weapons as prophesied by Zachariah. On the Brightside, Israel may get the opportunity to finally rebuild the Temple.

It would truly be momentous, having survived all, to witness the return of the Messiah. Don't mind waiting longer though. If it is to occur after our time, the dead in Christ arise to meet him first anyway. :)
