Syria no longer exists. Russian news service RT reported that Israel carried out the largest attack on Syria in history, when Israeli warplanes hit more than 250 military targets. Other reports put the number at 300. The Israeli Defense Forces report that they have destroyed 80% of Syria's military capacity. This happened after the fall of Syria. "Wave after wave of airstrikes carried out by IAF fighter jets and drones hit Syrian air bases, arms depots and weapons production sites in Damascus, Homs, Tartus, Latakia and Palmyra," the military said. Meanwhile, on Monday evening, missile boats of the Israeli navy destroyed 15 naval vessels belonging to the former regime in the Gulf of Minet al-Beida and the Port of Latakia on the Syrian coast. It is likely that the Syrian army, paid to withdraw, suffered more casualties from these attacks than it would have suffered in a battle defending Syria. The money for the generals was expensive for the soldiers.
The Israeli military said the airstrikes destroyed many long-range missiles, Scud missiles, cruise missiles, coastal-sea missiles, air defense missiles, fighter jets, helicopters, radars, tanks, hangars and others.

Israel describes its aggression as self-defense to prevent weapons from falling into the hands of terrorists. But the terrorists hired by Israel, Washington and Turkey to topple Syria have been turned into "Democratic Forces that liberated Syria" and whose leader has declared friendship with Israel. The real explanation for the Israeli aggression is that Israel now occupies part of Syria. If you remember, recently Netanyahu raised a map of Greater Israel and it had Syria on it. Netanyahu, despite his criminal indictment in Israel for corruption, is likely to remain the greatest of all Israeli heroes, as a leader who achieved the Zionist goal of a Greater Israel.

You may remember that the American media and" fact-checkers " denied that there was any such thing as a great Israel. It was all misinformation from anti-Semites. Apparently, narrative controllers considered Netanyahu's map of Greater Israel as part of an anti-Semitic misinformation. The Zionist neoconservatives showed their hand many years ago when they launched their plan to destroy seven countries in five years. It took more than five years, but the fall of Syria left only two of the Seven – Iran and Saudi Arabia. The inability of the Muslim Middle East to unite condemned it to ruin.
Israel sent tank columns into Syria with the intention of occupying. Washington supports Israel's invasion of Syria. https://www.rt.com/news/609116-us-backs-israeli-invasion-syria/
Washington's narrative is that it is better to have Syrian territory in the hands of Israel than ISIS, the tool of Washington, which they have already betrayed in the overthrow of Syria. US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said Washington expected Israel's occupation of Syrian territory to be "temporary." Turkey's reward is that Erdogan can now conduct military operations against Kurds who were protected from Syria.
The myth that Syria still exists lives on in the UN and among Russian government officials. The UN Security Council is united in the need to "preserve the territorial integrity of Syria," Russia's Permanent Representative to the UN Vasily Nebenzia said after a closed-door meeting on Monday. "We discussed the need for the drafting of the document by the council... in the coming days," Nebenzia said. https://sputnikglobe.com/20241210/syrian-crisis-keeping-you-updated-1121140231.html Unbelievable. The Russians will save Syria.
The lack of realism among the Russian government is worrisome. Syria no longer exists and is rapidly becoming a great Israel. Washington conceals reality by emphasizing Israel's right to self-defense. Defense against what? There Will Be No Syria?
Washington is also launching strikes against former Syria. The U.S. claims to be attacking ISIS, and the CIA created a force that the U.S. used to overthrow Syria. If the US and Israel now turn against ISIS-Al-Qaeda forces, now called Al-Nusra, a name now replaced by the "Democratic opposition", which was used to overthrow Assad, the situation could develop badly for Washington and Israel.
Assad in Syria and Saddam Hussein in Iraq were secular leaders. This was necessary because both countries had Sunnis and Shias. But the jihadist forces that Washington has used against Libya and Syria contain true Muslims capable of jihad. These Muslims have stood up to the secular leaders of Iraq and Syria and are willing agents of Washington and Israel to use them for their own purposes against secular Muslim regimes.
Now that Israel and Washington are turning to their jihadist tool, they could probably have a fight in their hands and more instability than they counted. Both Israel and Washington are working to destroy Syria's air defenses, which, with so much open territory, will make it difficult for jihadists to regain control of the territory they have captured with the active help of Turkey, Washington and Israel and help in the withdrawal of Russia and Iran. The question arises: What Will Washington, Israel and Turkey do to take care of the tools they used to destroy Syria?
What Washington and Israel want for them is that Muslims are divided by the struggle over the succession of Muhammad. Sunnis and Shiites hate each other more than they hate their Western and Israeli oppressors. As British ambassador Craig Murray explains, Turkey and the Gulf states accept the destruction of the Palestinian nation and the creation of a Greater Israel, in exchange for the destruction of Shiite minorities in Syria and Lebanon and the imposition of Salafism throughout the Eastern Arab world.
The Russian government does not show any understanding of the consequences of a Greater Israel. Alan Sabroski concludes that Russia was not willing to fight as fiercely in defense of Syria as Washington and Israel fought for the collapse of Syria. https://www.unz.com/article/regime-change-in-syria-another-step-towards-greater-israel/ The road to Iran is clear.
The most important thing is that in the whole world the perception is that Washington and Israel have defeated Russia. This perception will strengthen Washington and is likely to influence BRICS Foreign Policy and development. Saudi Arabia, which has gone so far as to hold joint military maneuvers with Iran and expressed interest in the BRICS, is likely to re-establish the petro-dollar in exchange for protecting Washington from an Israeli government minister who stated that the map of Greater Israel now includes Saudi Arabia.
The extraordinary defeat inflicted by Israel and the Israeli American neoconservatives on Russia and Iran prevents Trump from making any peace moves. The West has regained its hegemony by defeating Russia in Syria and is on the move. Washington will insist on obedience from Russia and Iran.
The purpose of Trump's ceasefire in Ukraine is to protect the West from defeat. As Putin prefers treaties to war, he could fall into a trap and Washington will be able to regain its hegemony.
Did the Russian and Iranian governments understand that the stakes in Syria are Washington's hegemony and Israel's hegemony over the Middle East in the form of a Greater Israel? Do they realize the magnitude of their defeat?
"Syrian Democratic opposition" in action:
As has long been the case, Muslims prefer to kill each other than to kill their common enemies.
