“We will act decisively”: why Israel continues to bomb Syria

November 21, 2019 50

The situation in the north of Syria was hardly stabilized, thanks to the agreements between Turkey and Russia, as flared up in the south. The Israeli Air Force launched another series of airstrikes against two dozen targets, including in the suburbs of Damascus. Why can't the world come to a country tormented by war?

According to the Israeli publication Haaretz, the IDF bombed on the positions of "Quds", the special forces of the IRGC. One of the blows was inflicted on the headquarters of Iranian forces in the SAR. In Tel Aviv, they said that Damascus itself was to blame, since it was responsible for all attacks on Israel from its territory:

We will continue to act decisively and for as long as necessary against the Iranian forces in Syria.

The insufferable desire of the Israelis to remove the military infrastructure of Tehran and the Iranian "proxies" away from their borders has long been known. But is it the Iranians alone? The next exacerbation in Syria has several components:

At first, Tehran and Tel Aviv are true sworn enemies. There is no direct border between them, but Iran gained serious Shiite support in Lebanon, and also sent thousands of its troops to Syria to help official Damascus. One of Tehran’s goals is to anchor on the Mediterranean coast. To open a naval base, he was able to get a long-term lease on the port of Latakia. In addition, Iran’s plans are known to link its country with Syria by a railway transit through Iraq.

Israelis accuse Iranians of developing nuclear weapons. It is believed that the Jewish state itself has long secretly acquired its own nuclear arsenal. Both the United States and Israel are jointly trying to prevent the Iranians from developing an atomic bomb that could change the balance of power in the Middle East. Until this happened, the IDF regularly inflicts airstrikes on the positions of the IRGC and from the “proxy” to the ATS. After the appearance of S-300 anti-aircraft systems in Damascus, the Israeli Air Force prefer to operate from Lebanon and Palestine.

SecondlyPresident Trump took a pronounced pro-Israeli position. Under him, the Jewish state received huge bonuses. The head of the White House recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, which caused opposition from the Muslim world. He also recognized the Golan Heights occupied by him at Syria for Israel. But this seemed to him not enough, and he actually opened the way to the absorption of Palestine, refusing to consider Israeli settlements on the West Bank as illegal.

ThirdlyDespite all these “Trump gifts,” Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu was never able to achieve a complete election victory. His Likud party did not gain enough votes for the Knesset to form a government. Its direct rival, Kahol-Lavan, refused to form a coalition and began negotiations with the Arab parties of Israel. All this will lead to another re-election, where the position of the “party in power" may weaken even more.

The bombing of neighboring Syria are echoes political struggle in the Jewish state. Prime Minister Netanyahu is trying to win more points by rallying voters against the "Iranian threat." It turns out that while there is Israel and the USA, there will be no rest for Damascus.

  What can Russia do? Israel has weapons for delivering nuclear weapons in all three natural environments. According to a number of estimates, Israel is the sixth largest nuclear weapon in the world by the number of nuclear warheads. You can’t climb there, you can get in the face, it’s not Georgia with Ukraine and Transnistria.

    The question is posed Wrongly - to climb, not to climb, the main thing - why does Russia need this? And the fact that someone is the sixth power - so what, the main question - WHY?
    For those who have forgotten - six - this is a figure less than at least two, without even remembering another component - and we have it more than many countries of the world combined, which one needs to be explained?)

    - Yeah! What are these? Yes, such that Russia was scared? Already in three environments! Podizh you! Is it airplanes in the air? Or rockets? Israel has nothing that will fly further than neighboring states, and even then, provided that they do not have modern air defense systems. I’m silent about Russia already. Maybe by the sea? Does this mean 5 older German diesel Dolphins on the go? Models of the early 80s of the last century? Well, the submarines, by themselves, are not bad, for their time and for intimidating an enemy such as Lebanon or Syria, it’s possible they can even fight with Iran or Egypt ... but not with the Russian fleet, do not tell me slippers, I'm not talking about getting somewhere close by a shot to the Russian coast. But the third environment is the most interesting, it is apparently not otherwise than how to dig an underground tunnel directly into the Kremlin? Or how? Well, your Israel has nuclear weapons, perhaps, but there are no global means of delivery. If only a suicide bomber is sent somewhere with a suitcase by flight, then yes The military force of Israel is designed for a short-term confrontation with neighboring Arab states, nothing more. If suddenly something serious, then in Tel Aviv, the calculation is solely on US support. And your nuclear weapons, too, scare your neighbors, and not superpowers ...

      Israel does not consider Russia as an enemy, there are delivery vehicles (ICBM Jericho-3), Dolphins are better than Varshavyanks, armed with the Kyrgyz Republic Popeye Turbo. Nevertheless, there is no such scenario in which a direct and serious military conflict arises between the Russian Federation and Israel. Russia is not up to it, the Jews didn’t fall on that as well.

        ... But this is not for me, about Israel's plans, you are above, tell the Master, he is scaring the Russian Federation with Israeli nuclear weapons. In the commentary, I am talking about Israel's ability to "frighten" the Russian Federation with its nuclear weapons (theoretical ) - Jericho against the air defense of the Russian Federation as an AKM against a tank (the weapon itself is good, but in this particular case it is useless). As for if Dolphin is better than Varshavyanka - I'm not sure, performance characteristics is one thing, practice is different. But firstly, the Russian Federation, besides Varshavyanka, has something else, Israel does not; secondly, Varshavyanka will be a project even older than Dolphin, and, in principle, it is not even considered as a carrier of strategic nuclear weapons; thirdly, again, talking about "an Israeli strike on the Russian Federation", well, what will this Dolphin do in this version - but nothing in the square ... see AK against the tank ...

        Well, if it is purely theoretical - Jericho is a weapon of retaliation - they will hit at unprotected targets, and Popai Turbo volley fired near (east) of the territorial waters of Greece or west of Turkish waters will also blow something in the south of Russia. But, once again - the chances of such a confrontation are closest to zero. As for Israel, the Air Force component of the triad can be demolished immediately (conditionally), but as for ICBMs (they are not in mines) and submarines - this is not AK against the tank, then immediately after the strike you need to use naval air defense during the launch of ICBMs to intercept the maximum number of missiles on start up. And here the question arises - again, if there are Dolphins and other undestroyed shnags on land and at sea with the not-so-modern and large Russian fleet, who will let this be done? And if they fly, and even with a parallel strike by the Kyrgyz Republic against Gelenges and Dzhubgam - millions of losses, destruction in the Krasnodar and Stavropol Territories, the republics of the Caucasus, etc. Refugees, contamination of agricultural areas and more. From Israel, of course, there will be nothing left at all - but it is not toothless even against a superpower. If it’s rude, there, even with small sizes, a very serious technique and a rather high level of training for everyone, from the infantryman (corresponding to Russian specialists) and ending with the strategic component.

        I practically agree with everything. The main idea -
        
        the odds of such a confrontation are closest to zero.
        
        And the Israeli army, unlike some local troubadours, understands this perfectly. But, although the Russian fleet today is not on the same scale as the Soviet one, and the air defense also, but with a look at the models and, most importantly, the quantity that Israel has (if there really is, otherwise the Jews were always distinguished by the fact that they could praise their goods in such a way that in reality they should be divided by 8. ), I think, intercepting all this in general is hardly problematic. And about the training of Israeli infantry at the level of special forces of the Russian Federation - well, thank you! They have excellent specialists, though, but with the preparation of the army you really went too far. I personally know and knew some people - the specialists are super, and the army is like the army. And in general, Israel allows itself what it allows, not because of the real strength of its armed forces, but for completely different reasons. If they had not been covered outside, they would have been crushed by Arabs there a long time ago - the level of everything is high, yes, but the quantity would still not be enough ...

        Jews trumpet that no. )))
        In quantity - once again, it is supposed to be launched on goals that no one thought to defend even during the Cold War - a retaliation strike. Of the dozens of what is, most likely will reach the majority, because Air defense in the Russian Federation is focal.
        About training Israeli infantry units - this is the opinion of my friend the Russian military. Only KMB - 10 thousand live ammunition of small arms training at the shooting range, as well as during training up to the battalion order in the open area + built-up area. Marsh throws - on beret from 60 km. Etc.
        According to the Arabs, Israel made the largest territorial conquests in 1967, with Soviet support from the Arabs and the American embargo on the supply of offensive weapons. American assistance on an ongoing basis to Israel began only after the deployment of the Soviet military contingent in Egypt - Operation Caucasus. In terms of number - about 3 thousand tanks and 400 combat aircraft are enough to protect such a small territory. Read about the 1973 war - the biggest mess by the number of vehicles on both sides after WWII - it will be interesting for you to read, because from the time of the Second World War the whole thing changed - focal battles instead of a solid front line, air defense umbrellas, etc.
        According to the Russophobes who find themselves in Russia, this is pearl.

Until the Jewish planes fall, the bombing will continue. And they will not fall until Russia gives the go-ahead! Russia forgot about the shot down IL, and then some Iranians. And the Iranians are good too !? They praised their air defense systems, and who is stopping them from putting them in Syria to protect their own military?

        Syria is not the former, thanks to the Russian Federation. The Israeli armed forces are not capable of striking Russian bases - nothing, so that it flies. The fact that there is, you can shoot at Lebanon or Syria. And nobody will beat, they will be smarter than you in the headquarters of the Tsakhal - they know how this will end, and in the variant of hitting the Russian bases, it’s impossible to count on the United States again that their ass will be covered ... And without the United States, the Israeli army on not capable of real war, and never was. This is enough for a short-term conflict with neighbors, or for suppressing intifadas there. And the rest, the main force of Israel is the Jewish diaspora of the United States, and not missiles, planes and submarines ... Israel can not fight with any serious and more or less modern army. And the armed forces of this country are not designed for this from the beginning ...
        Israel still exists because it is simply allowed. Firstly, no one wants to get involved in a conflict with the Americans, and secondly, this state is still hiding behind the victims of the Holocaust, again inconvenient. Although, I do not really understand how long they will still be on this "ride" ... it's time to stop already, zadolbali.

        Nobody beat anyone. Moreover, Israel is the Soviet army - it even sounds like a joke bad. The USSR did not want to get involved in a conflict with the United States, like everyone else who contacted Israel. That's the whole explanation. The Israelis themselves never "conquered" anyone. Maybe Palestinians with stones in the "intifada" can be crushed there with tanks, under the quiet silence of the "world community" or some SS-man's grandfather can be stolen from somewhere, yes ...

        You, my dear, believe that only you know everything, and the others walked alongside you, well, consider it further and further, for me personally, from such a reading you are neither warm nor cold, but it’s for sure that you don’t need a real picture not my problem.
        And continue to consider further that if your plane gets down, the Russian bases in Syria will be instantly and unequivocally set up - I already wrote to you about it, if this option suits you - well, then it suits you, but I’d like to know that you, my dear, Has this variant already been voiced in its media? Well, as they say, so that the author of this idea is already known?)

        Or maybe then they will have time to shout in the former Israel ???
        Syria is not the former, thanks to the Russian Federation. The Israeli armed forces are not capable of striking Russian bases - nothing, so that it flies. The fact that there is, you can shoot at Lebanon or Syria. And no one will beat, they will be smarter than you in the headquarters of the Tsakhal — they know how this will end, and in the variant of hitting the Russian bases, it’s impossible to expect the United States to cover their ass again, 100% ... And without the United States, the Israeli army on not capable of real war, and never was. This is enough for a short-term conflict with neighbors, or for suppressing intifadas there. And the rest, the main force of Israel is the Jewish diaspora of the United States, and not missiles, planes and submarines ... Israel cannot fight any serious and more or less modern army. And the armed forces of this country are not designed for this from the beginning ...
        Israel still exists because it is simply allowed. Firstly, no one wants to get involved in a conflict with the Americans, and secondly, this state is still hiding behind the victims of the Holocaust, again inconvenient. Although, I do not really understand how long they will still be on this "ride" ... it's time to stop already, zadolbali.
        
        There will be no blow to Russian bases, but there is something to strike with, moreover, in waves, and moreover effectively. According to the Israeli army, it is quite capable of grinding several thousand tanks and hundreds of aircraft. Read, everything is in the public domain. As for the victims of the Holocaust - neither the six-day nor the 73-year-old wars prevented this, not to mention the first Arab-Israeli war of 48-49. Read about the Arab-Israeli wars - interesting info - the first massive use of helicopters against tanks by Israelis in 1973, the first massive attack on enemy airfields after WWII, the talented Egyptian operation to force the Suez Canal, the effective operation of Arab air defense in 1973, the destruction by Israel of layered air defense in 1982, the tactics of effective actions of Soviet air defense in 1970 against Israeli aircraft, the ambush of the Israeli Air Force against Soviet fighters in 1970, many new innovations in military affairs, influencing them on the development of Soviet and American technology, and change the preparation and planning for different armies in the world.

        - Is it normal with your calculations and analytics? Than? And which tanks? Is this the fact that the Israeli army is about equal in strength to all of NATO in Europe? What nonsense!
        And I don't even want to talk about the "war" of our air defense with Israel - it's just a shame, because it was the same pure policy as it is now in the SAR. They did not want to get involved in a conflict with the United States then, and now, I suppose, the same thing. The Russian Federation, of course, is not the USSR, but "ugh - and there is no Israel", if you judge purely by the army's capabilities. And they will not grind anything there. BUT ... politics again ... that's why they fly and bomb whoever they want ... for now ...

        Than? )))
        Israel itself has about 3 tanks, 400 combat aircraft and air defense, and Spike anti-tank missiles of various modifications, etc.
        Comparing with NATO, it is definitely stronger than the Bundeswehr and the Turks. The ground component and the air force is more serious than the British.
        The last major mess with the use of tanks - 1973. Losses of Israelis - 810 tanks (Shermans, Centurions, M-48), Arabs losses of 1750 tanks and armored vehicles (T-62, T-55/54, M-48, SU-100, etc.).
        About 1970 - the air defense was deployed precisely to suppress the Israelis, the planes rose to intercept the Israelis, so the situation was different. A more massive troop transfer was not really carried out in order to avoid direct conflict with the States.
        Ugh - and there is no Israel - this is judged by the use of nuclear weapons. In the conventional conflict, judging by the purely military capabilities, the deployment of 300-400 thousand troops to the region for crazy money (hoping that the Jews will calmly look at it) and their subsequent collision with the IDF mobilized (three days) at 700 thousand - well, there are more questions about the Russian army than about those who are at home, in quantitative superiority, well-trained Israelis (men under 40 years old after 3 years urgent once a year for a month go for retraining, calling for war out of turn ) At the same time, the bulk of immigrants from the military forces took part in the hostilities, so no easy victory is expected there, if at all. And the logistics are expensive.

        Listen, you still have to understand that the dialogue here is obviously purely theoretical from the very beginning. It is almost impossible to imagine a war between the Russian Federation and Israel, and without any nuclear weapons. I will not argue about the number of equipment and logistics if you mean the movement of troops to the Middle East. Reluctance to stir and search for data, but from my head I do not remember the details. I do not know where you got the data on the number of tanks and aircraft, but I know that the vast majority of equipment in Israel is in American warehouses, to which the IDF "gets access if necessary" - this is conservation and the equipment is far from new. That is, in a couple of days you cannot enter the battle, nor can you carry out mobilization. And here is a contradiction with the very military doctrine of Israel:
        
        Given the geographical realities, as well as the superiority of the enemy in manpower and equipment, Israel in the event of war cannot count on victory by destroying the enemy. The real goal should be to inflict such damage on his armed forces, which would incapacitate them for as long as possible.
        The small territory, very rugged borders and the proximity of the populated centers to the front line deprives Israel of any strategic depth. In the narrowest zone, the distance from the border to the sea is only 14 km. There are no natural barriers to defense.
        Israel cannot wage a long war. The war makes it necessary to mobilize such a huge percentage of the population that the economy will simply stop functioning after a few weeks [3].
        
        They know perfectly well that they cannot fight seriously and for a long time with anyone. And they have only neighbors as potential opponents. I generally keep quiet about a state like the Russian Federation. So, about "grinding thousands of tanks and hundreds of planes" is, sorry, fiction. Purely "sofa" approach. And to neutralize Israel, the Russian Federation does not need to relocate anything special, and even nuclear weapons are not needed. Enough precision weapons and something else ...
        Or do you imagine something like the Kursk Bulge: thousands of Israeli tanks and hundreds of planes fighting something similar from the Russian Federation? So? Yes, they don’t even have so much fuel in the state so that all this could go somewhere at the same time ...

        Data from where?
        I served there, and about the quantity - a bunch of sources on the Internet. Google if you are not lazy. According to Amer’s warehouses, there are mainly artillery shells, cartridges and Hammer-type cars of various modifications. Tanks and aircraft at the disposal of the Israelis. Merkava 1300, all sorts of M-60s with the bells and whistles of a reserve preserved at Israeli reserve bases from another 1500 approximately.
        Aviation - about 400 F-15, F-16 and 12, like, F-35. This is all in working condition, the average annual raid of an Israeli pilot is one of the highest in the world - 360 hours with an active fighter, 80-120 with a reservist (not counting the simulator).
        Mobilization is carried out in three days - reservists go to their units, in which they constantly train once a year.
        According to the military doctrine of Israel - everything is true. About defeating the country with precision weapons - well two world reserves of such weapons will probably be enough .. As for fighting by ourselves - assistance in ammunition and weapons during the 1973 war was given to the Jews by the States, the Arabs from the USSR on the third day. Fuel - there is also a lot of strategic reserve for a couple of weeks of such a battle. By the way:

It turns out that while there is Israel and the United States, Damascus cannot be seen

Americans act. And achieve the result. Everywhere.

The Russian Federation is waiting, playing tricky plans, as in the tale of Emel, in whom the stove itself had to drive. And she went. And a self-assembled tablecloth, too.
But this is in fairy tales that confirm the fact that a Russian person is usually lazy and waits until everything is done / resolved / settled by itself. Well, traditionally "harnesses for a long time."
And after that, the search for perpetrators around the perimeter begins.
As in the saying about two troubles of Russia - fools and roads.
Question:
- If they live in the country clever, where do they come from foolsthat are building bad roads?
Maybe these clever - not by that much smart if they have bad roads from century to century.....

  And will not show. Because Israel has publicly and publicly stated that each of its operations is coordinated with Russia. Russia does not need hemorrhoids in the form of Iran. No, of course, I also admit launches of the S-300 by Syrian crews and even hits in Cyprus. The fall of Syrian missiles after launch on Israeli targets, as already noted .... But without the participation of Russia. Social networks of the Russian Federation, almost do not notice the raids of Israeli raids Hel Haavir.

Israel today has a good foreign policy position. For the first time in the history of the state, excellent relations with the Russian Federation, a cold peace with Egypt and Jordan. The rich Arab countries are de facto allies of Israel. As correctly noted in the publication, the US administration today is one of the most loyal relations ever. With the economy, thanks to the market rate of Bibi, everything is in perfect order: Israel is one of the most prosperous countries in the world. Syria, or rather what is left of it, is not up to Israel. The question arises: what is the reason for striking the territory called Syria. Answer: the real threat of Iran, which has concentrated missile launchers, artillery and manpower at the borders of Israel. This is serious. Because in "from ears to tail" Israel is not even 500 km long, and even less at the waist - 17 km. Waiting for Iran to concentrate a critical number of missiles near the borders of Eretz Yisrael is like death. There is another side to the coin. For the Russian Federation, Iran is not an ally, but for the United States, all Arab states and Egypt, Turkey, Kurds, it is also an enemy. Therefore, the Israelis feel free in Syrian airspace. Elections. Jews always argue to the point of hoarseness on all issues, and especially about who is to steer. But this does not mean at all that at hour "X" the country will not unite, as always. Suffice it to recall the last days before the six-day war, when the quietest Eshkol was at the helm of the country. Then Ben Gurion, without hesitation, agreed to participate in the government from the "RAFI" of his worst enemy Begin. Yes, and Eshkol himself, having learned from Abba Eban that Johnson repeated twice: "Do not act alone and you will not be left alone," - made a decision to preemptively strike the Arab aggressors ... So, internal showdowns will not affect defense Israel. And Iran may have problems. And they will. He is not ready for war, he has no allies. Greetings Krasnodar. I remembered Ilf and Petrov: "I recognize my brother Kolya." Load oranges (apples) in barrels (Bukhalov).
