That is where Syria comes in.
It is the strategic relationship between the Islamic Republic and the Assad
regime that makes it possible for Iran
to undermine Israel 's
security. Over the three decades of hostility between Iran and Israel ,
a direct military confrontation has never occurred -- but through Hezbollah,
which is sustained and trained by Iran
via Syria ,
the Islamic Republic has proven able to threaten Israeli security interests.
The collapse of the Assad regime
would sunder this dangerous alliance. Defense Minister Ehud Barak, arguably the
most important Israeli decision-maker on this question, recently told CNN's Christiane Amanpour that the Assad regime's
fall "will be a major blow to the radical axis, major blow to Iran .... It's
the only kind of outpost of the Iranian influence in the Arab world ... and it
will weaken dramatically both Hezbollah in Lebanon
and Hamas and Islamic Jihad in Gaza ."
…
In Lebanon ,
Hezbollah would be cut off from its Iranian sponsor, since Syria would no
longer be a transit point for Iranian training, assistance, and missiles. All
these strategic benefits combined with the moral purpose of saving tens of
thousands of civilians from murder at the hands of the Assad regime -- some
12,000 have already
been killed, according to activists -- make
intervention in Syria
a calculated risk, but still a risk worth taking.
US will lots of gain for helping Syrian people for sure. Needs US leadership.
Despite odds, flag burnings riots, it is a hate love relationship - not
interests in it you don’t even bother - Middle East US can only provide leaderships, both beneficial relationship no countries able to replace it some foreseeable future. On the
ground the FSA really well co-coordinated, structural united leadership distinctive.
If the criminal Assad air strike stop through NO-Fly-Zone, they really end this
conflict very soon.
