US backs Israeli invasion of Syria

The IDF’s advance past the Golan Heights will prevent terrorists from taking over the border area, according to the State Department

Washington has defended Israel’s military incursion into Syria, with State Department spokesman Matthew Miller stressing that the operation is in self-defense. At a press briefing on Monday, Miller claimed that the Israel Defense Forces’ (IDF) advance to the Syrian side of the Golan Heights was done to prevent Syrian-based militants from taking over the border areas and launching an offensive into Israel in the future.

Israeli troops moved into the demilitarized buffer zone in the occupied Golan Heights on Sunday, after Syrian opposition forces seized Damascus and forced former President Bashar Assad to flee the country. On Monday, Israeli forces moved beyond the buffer zone and into Syria proper, with Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz saying they intend to create a new “security area” there that would be clear of “heavy strategic weapons and terrorist infrastructure.”

According to Miller, by abandoning its positions in the area around the buffer zone, the Syrian Army “potentially created a vacuum” that could be filled by terrorist organizations.

“That would threaten the state of Israel and would threaten civilians inside Israel. Every country has the right to take action against terrorist organizations,” Miller stated, adding that “ultimately, it’s important that there is security along that border,” which, according to him, the Israeli military can now ensure.

Miller noted, however, that Washington expects the Israeli occupation to be temporary.

“This is a temporary action that they have taken in response to actions by the Syrian military to withdraw from that area… We want to see the 1974 disengagement agreement upheld, and that includes the terms of the buffer zones, which includes Israel withdrawing to its previous positions,” he stated, referring to Israel’s 1974 agreement with Syria to establish a demilitarized strip in the Golan Heights.

Miller’s words run counter to remarks made earlier by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. While West Jerusalem told the UN Security Council that its incursion into Syria is a “limited and temporary measure” at a press conference on Monday night, Netanyahu declared that “the Golan Heights will forever be an inseparable part of the state of Israel.” He previously argued that Israel’s disengagement agreement with Syria effectively “collapsed” once Syrian troops “abandoned their positions” in the buffer zone.

The UN has criticized Israel for the incursion, saying it violates the disengagement agreement and stressing that “there should be no military forces or activities in the area of separation.” A number of Middle Eastern countries have also condemned Israel’s advance past the Golan Heights, accusing West Jerusalem of orchestrating an illegal land grab. In a statement on Monday, Qatar’s Foreign Ministry slammed the move as “a blatant attack on Syria’s sovereignty and unity” and “a flagrant violation of international law.” Similar remarks were made by Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan.

Recall Gen. Wesley Clark's prediction regarding the plan to remake the Middle East? Clark had claimed that he saw a Top Secret Pentagon document enumerating the plan that has been unfolding since 2001. How accurate has that turned out to be? As one of the commenters stated on the Redacted site stated:

@yanijuarez2118

"Syria has fallen, Lybia has fallen, Iraq has fallen, Somalia has no functioning government, Sudan is split and now only Lebanon and Iran remain. How long until General Wesley's list is complete."

We should be thanking Israel for taking out Assad's remaining weapon systems before Sunni Salafists get at them.

We don't want a repeat of Biden's bugging out of Afghanistan leaving the Taliban with billions in weapons.

The shifting sands of the shifting sands of temporary loyalties and alliances. Will Turkey, Iran, Iraq AND HTS eventually band against Israel, and then go back to fighting amongst themselves? "Let's just forget about this old Takfiri stuff for a while, what you say guys?"

The Russian, Iranian, Syrian and North Korean Axis with their Hamas, Hezbollah and Houthi Islamist proxies are having a banger year!

I think we can safely say in retrospect it was foolish for Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis and Iran to directly attack Israel and it was foolish for Russia to attack Ukraine. The absolute wreckage and humiliation of Hamas and Hezbollah will last a generation.

Trump has a great opportunity to double down support for Israel and to continue to isolate Iran and watch the "Shia Crescent" implode on itself.

The whole Oct 07 covfefe was launched as a second front to the Speshual Military Opereyshun and was coordinated with the current slo-mo offensive which started on the same day.

The UN is so fake and gay. UNRWA is now revealed to be even worse than it's claimed.
