No One in Israel Would Prefer Assad to Jihadists
(Voice of Russia) Mordechai Kedar - Dr. Mordechai Kedar, Director of the Center for the Study of the Middle East and Islam at Bar-Ilan University, said in an interview: "No one in Israel would prefer Assad to jihadists. Even jihadists from al-Qaeda pose no strategic threat to Israel's existence." "Certainly, there is no love lost between jihadists and the Zionist movement....But those organizations have no weapons of mass destruction. They have no ballistic missiles or powerful anti-aircraft systems, whereas the Syrian government has them."
