If anything, Syria is far less of a threat to Israel now than it was before Bashar's defeat yet Israel has invaded even more of the country.
The movement, which extended into and beyond a previously demilitarised buffer zone, was condemned 'in the strongest possible terms' by Egypt, which said it amounted to the 'occupation of Syrian land' and a 'severe breach' of a 1974 armistice deal. ft.com/content/5690c07a-9841-4339-b6ca-b3e98b241f1c

This government’s orgy of militarism in the name of ‘national security’ exposes the importance it attaches to maintaining the present world order by keeping wars going and aligning itself unconditionally with the US.

Amsterdam's mayor was one of those who described events there as a 'pogrom'.

She has now publicly renounced what she said, and offered regret for erasing Maccabi violence - and how the narrative whipped up anti-Muslim and anti-Arab violence.

The story continues to fall apart

Joe Biden looks like he intends to end his failed presidency with a bang. The danger is that he will take a lot of people with him. That’s the meaning of his decision to allow Ukraine to fire US long range missiles directly into Russian territory.
