Israel Must Stop Iran's Deepening Presence in Syria
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel - The heads of Israel's defense establishment say Israel must continue to act to stop Iran's military consolidation in Syria. This forceful, resolute policy is driven by an urgent need to block Iran's next moves and show Tehran that Israel won't accept a deepening of its presence in Syria. Without such decisive steps, they argue, Iran will be able, within a relatively short time, to set up a network of surface-to-surface missiles, drones, and aerial defense systems in Syria that will be under Iran's exclusive control and complement the armaments it has already given Hizbullah in Lebanon.
