Large numbers of fighters have arrived from Iraq, some fighting on the Sunni side and some on the Shia side.
Good. Payback from when it was a flow in the other direction. Assad turned a blind eye to his porous border for years ...
Israel is the biggest factor.
No, they aren't. Biggest factor is Iran, followed by Saudi and the other crowned heads in the Gulf. Follow The Money.
They are a regional superpower and are already engaged in a undeclared war with Iran.
They are no
superpower. Words have meanings.

I hope so, but I wonder sometimes if the meeting of the minds will ever take place. Agree with the bold part, but I wonder if our President actually lshares my sentiments.
Interesting times.
Indeed.
