Syria's been on the Zionist hit list all along and of course it's for the same reason as Iraq/Iran/Afghanistan/baby Stans/Pakistan are too...for the
real estate and chokepoints for those oil/water/natural gas pipelines to Asia, as you have discovered. They're on the path and must be controlled.
And from the looks of it, with the same old playbook:
U.S. Considers Push for U.N. Action
in Syria
.
However, Turkey and Israel are parting ways, while at the same time the Arab nations, including Turkey, are finally learning about the enemy of their
enemy. They've all watched Israel and its actions against Iran and are finally more or less realizing that unless they do unite Iraq's fate will the
theirs. They are just trying to hang on to what is rightly theirs. And as this is happening, or maybe because of it, the symbiotic relationship
between the US and Israel is weakening too. That, however, is probably more related to the slight shift of power from the Zionists in US politics to
the CFR.
