I keep wondering if the folks involved in the settlement process realize that their activity is an obstacle to peace.
Israel had a chance of attempting friendly relations with a new flavour of Syria (currently being reassembled from pieces, with considerable risk of continued violence). Maybe it still has that chance…
… but for some reason, Israeli officials made up their mind without talking to the other side - who were publicly saying that they didn’t want hostilities with Israel - and started making hostile moves anyway, like moving troops into the occupied buffer zone and speaking of approving higher settler numbers for the annexed Golan heights.
I could undertand a few bombing runs on the Assad regime’s strategic weapons stockpiles. But it looks like the government of Israel wants to ruin its relations with the next Syrian government pre-emptively.
My advise to Jews: detain Netanyahu and send him to the ICC, and get someone competent to run the country. (Or maybe in the other order: get someone competent first and detain Bibi soon after that.)
