Syria and Lebanon Backed By Iran And the Bloodshed This Causes

Since before 2007, rocket attacks have been coming from Syria and Lebanon into Israel. For example:  of main events emanating from the Gaza Strip since June 2007.  Syria:  a country  who taught their population that everything that happened that was bad was caused by Jews, even the weather.  

"The Islamic Republic of Iran and the Syrian Arab Republic are close strategic allies, and Iran has provided significant support for the Syrian government in the March 15, 2011 Syrian Civil War, including logistical, technical and financial support, as well as training and some combat troops."  By being their big brother, they've wormed their way in, and now are calling the shots.  Iran is now right next door to Israel, by using Syria. 

                                               

 April 2021: AMMAN, April 22 (Reuters) - Israel has dramatically expanded air strikes on suspected Iranian missile and weapons production centers in Syria to repel what it sees as a stealthy military encroachment by its regional arch-enemy, Western and regional intelligence sources say.

I. Rocket and mortar fire at targets in Israel is the cause.  

Al-Qaeda's Syrian affiliate, the Nusra Front, has at times 

literally straddled the Syrian-Israeli border. ISIS, which is 
even more brutal than al-Qaeda, controls large parts of Syria. 
Lebanese Hezbollah is heavily involved in the fighting in 
Syria, securing its valuable arms transfer corridor from its 
sponsors of no other than Iran.
Hezbollah already has an estimated 150,000 surface-to-surface missiles. 
    Iran has transferred game-changing weapons systems into 
Lebanon to arm this terrorist proxy including anti-ship cruise 
missiles and air defense systems and precision-guided rockets and 
 missiles in its stockpile. That's enough to rain down 1,500 rockets a day
 in Israel for over 2 months. All of these weapons systems  are aimed for
 Israel. 

Hezbollah is amassing valuable tactical experience in Syria. It's mastered
 the use of diverse weapons systems and working in coordination with
 Iran and the Russians.

2019 reported: Over 1,500 rockets and mortars have been fired towards Israel over the past year from the Hamas-run Gaza Strip and over two dozen fired from Syria, a significant increase in the past four years.

"There has been international condemnation of the rocket-firing, which Israel blamed on Iran, with the United States accusing Iran of trying to provoke a wider Middle East conflict.  Tensions continue to rise in the Middle East, after Israel launched missile attacks on Iranian targets in Syria, in response to rockets fired at its positions in the occupied Golan Heights on Wednesday night."Jonathan Marcus,BBC correspondent." So what could happen next in the region, and why are the countries in conflict?

                                             

      Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini was the architect of the Iranian Revolution and the first leader (rahbar) of the Islamic republic established in 1979.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is the Islamic Republic's second supreme leader

Former Syrian President Hafez al-Assad’s Baath Party was the first to accept Iran's Revolution and their new leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeinil.  Assad didn't   accept him as  fully as the leaders  in Lebanon did, however.                               

His son,  Bashar al-Assad is the 20th and current president of Syria, serving since July 17, 2000.  Syria has had rockets aimed at Israel for many years.  "Iran's regional influence is growing. It is eager to establish itself as a military player in Syria. This - separately from its nuclear program - is something that Israel has been viewing since 2015 as a fundamental threat."

Iran has threatened Israel existence. 

Syrian-owned rockets aimed at Israel

This means that if Iran were allowed to use Syrian land, it could establish rocket launchers and fire rockets into Israel far easier than from Iran.  Both states have made improper threats against Israel's very survival.  Just in May 2021, 3 rockets were launched from Syria toward Israel on Friday, expanding the battlefield as Israel faces off against militants in the Gaza Strip. The Israeli military said Friday that of the 3 rockets, one landed within Syrian territory. No casualties were immediately reported as a result of the attack.

In 2008 Israel was referred to as "germ of corruption will be wiped off."  They were also Holocaust deniers.

"They gathered, organized and armed the dirties[sic], filthiest and most criminal so-called humans from different parts of the world more than 60 years ago under a false and void excuse and through making fake news and stories. They occupied the Palestinian territories and made the Palestinian nation homeless through their military and propaganda supports".  So said the Iranians.  

                                                                               

  The Khartoum Conference was an Arab Conference and Iranians are not Arabs but Persians.  They are both Muslims, but with serious differences.   

Israel must have hoped that the 1967 War was the War that would end all wars against them, only to enjoyed peace for a little while, for the Khartoum Conference ended that with their No No No.  The 1967 Arab League summit was held on August 29 in Khartoum as the fourth Arab League Summit in the aftermath of the Arab defeat by Israel in the Six-Day War, and is famous for its Khartoum Resolution known as "The Three No's"; No peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with Israel. 

The year with Netanyahu and Trump, the miracle we've all waited for, working together to have a better and peaceful life, one year later.  Now both Israel and the US have new governments but the Accords reached their 1st birthday and continue to work together.  

2020 is the date that the Abraham Accords started;  53 years later.   with the UAE and Bahrain. Sudan joined next, and then Morocco.   

This is what Iran tells the world today under this new regime of Ayatollahs.  Syria is also overrun with ISIS and Hezbolla and Hamas in Gaza that cooperates with Iran.   The hatred in their hearts is spewing out like an erupting volcano.   No truth is in their spewing about Jews or the Palestinian situation.  So not all Muslim countries are cowering from Iran's pressure.
