Israel Threatens Syria's Bashar al-Assad: You Might Be Next Via The CradleIsraeli government minister and war cabinet member Gideon Saar threatened Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad on Sunday, warning that he will be “in danger” if his country continues to act as a “conduit” for Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah.Saar – who rejoined Benjamin Netanyahu’s government late last month – said during a conference that Tel Aviv “missed an opportunity” to “collapse” Assad’s government, which was “saved” by Iran and Hezbollah.

Israeli attacks on Syria have increased since the start of the war in Gaza and Lebanon in October last year.
