When Syria bombs Ben Gurion Airport and the Golan settlements, Israel will stop attacking them
Written by: Hammad Sobh
In four days, from Thursday to Sunday, Israel attacked Syria three times. From time to time, it attacks the airports of Damascus and Aleppo, and put them out of service several times. Civilian airports are great national sovereign symbols, and attacking them, especially the capital's airport, is a major insult to the state and the nation. This is what Israel is exposing Syria to with its repeated attacks on the airport of its political capital, Damascus, and its economic capital, Aleppo. Israel justifies these attacks by the presence of weapons in the two airports, and members of Iranian forces. And she is not always hesitant to justify her attacks against any party that attacks her. Syria always threatens it to respond to its successive attacks at the right time and place, and the two do not always come together, and of course they come together. Their failure to come raised suspicion and confusion among those who want to deter Israel and take revenge on it.
Some of us excuse Syria, including the author of these lines, for its complete preoccupation with the global war that has befallen it, and in the excuses that Russia is preventing Syria from a deterrent retaliation, and that between Israel and Russia there is an agreement on the freedom of Israel’s aggression against what it sees as a source of danger to it in Syria, and this agreement explains its neutrality The relative Israeli position in the war between Russia and Ukraine and its lack of strong alignment with NATO and America in supporting Ukraine. No matter how different the share of these excuses was in affecting the Syrian failure to respond to Israel's attacks, the latter did not leave Syria an outlet for the feeling that it could ignore its attacks.
