Syria Down, Iran Next
The US and Israel are apparently planning attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities and likely many other targets.
One of the main prerequisites of the long-standing objective was eliminating Syria which not only disrupts Iranians asymmetrical military power, but also creates air space US and Israeli warplanes can freely fly through on their way to strike Iran.
The Times of Israel makes the point I’ve previously noted that with the collapse of Syria’s military, its air defenses have now been completely eliminated and previously created a military and political obstruction to Israeli strikes.
The goal of all of this was always ultimately removing Iran. Then Russia. Then China.
