Israel had no reason to attack a sovereign country. If that changes, i will say so.

For a long time Israel has provided air support for Syrian “rebels” (however that gets defined in Jerusalem these days) along their border and in the southern quadrant of Syria, and they’ve gotten used to violating Syrian air space to conduct strikes on targets as they see fit.

Perhaps that changes now, we’ll see.

“Israel had no reason to attack a sovereign country.”

I’m not 100% sure, but I think the Yom Kippur War technically continues between Syria and Israel, just as the Korean War was never formally ended. Egypt and Israel reached an accord, and Sadat was murdered in large part for making peace with Israel.
