		<description><![CDATA[We should be cautious on this. Assad knows that his air force is of now value against Israel. With the aid of a few thousand Al Quds forces he might be able to do a particular harm.

We should know that enemy forces like Syria, Hezbollah and Iran heavily rely on missiles. And we also know that nobody can walk through the rain without getting wet. Okay, Israel has the Iron Dome, but we all know that it is &quot;only&quot; 84% water proof.

Let&#039;s look at the situation from the other side and not only from Assad&#039;s perspective but also from the Iranian strategic view. Assad&#039;s power may vanish and then? Provided, that Assad will be removed from power, when will Iran be able to strike and use Syria as a launching pad for its missiles?

When if not now can Iran lead a strike against Israel using a land based force? Once Assad is gone, Hezbollah will be only half as strong because it would be missing a Hinterland.

And now there is Ahma-Utan&#039;s visit in Egypt.

Reading the news, we all could learn, that the Iranian Leadership is yearning for war, they only don&#039;t want to start it. They want to create a situation where it looks as if they were forced into war.]]></description>
