Israel-Syria

This appears to be the order of events. There are readers to this site far more knowledgable about events in the region, so I direct people to the comments in advance of them in case there are important corrections or updates in the comments.

First, there was an attack on the Druze people within Syria by the new regime, which is ISIS/Al Qaeda, both ideologically and the actual people at the lead of the armed revolution within Syria.

The Tweet below was in response to that attack.

The Syrians appear to have an answer to that threat:

UPDATE: The Tweet is no longer available There is no way to tell of course if this is because it wasn’t true, or because it was too horrific to show, or because it interfered with the agenda of powerful agencies.

For some reason the Tweet still loads for me on Twitter using this link: https://twitter.com/realMaalouf/status/1945546745917628562 but it will not embed. Below is a screen grab.

Un-blurred versions of this are out there should it be necessary.

Here is the video in the Tweet I can’t embed in case they remove it altogether from Twitter.

CAUTION: This video is not blurred but doesn’t show anything really graphic, but lots of dead people and the voice of a highly distressed person video recording it. I won’t embed it here, but here is the link.

Assuming any and all of it is true, the Israeli response to this should be spectacular. And very soon. The Israelis tend to fiercely defend the Druze people. In part because if the Druze defend themselves, it will go way off the Geneva Convention. Way off.

Major BREAKING Israel has new front with Hizb’allah in all out war

The background: Hizb’allah launched a missile that was unique in construction and payload to that Iranian proxy army. It hit a soccer field near a playground in a Druze village.

It is well known in Israel that one does not fuck with the Druze.

The Druze offered an ultimatum to Israel explaining they had 4 hours to respond to the attack, or the Druze would themselves. This is no idle threat. The Druze do not concern themselves with world opinion or what college LARPers have to say in Montreal. For the background, see RAIR Foundation here.

Israel appears to have wasted no time to engage Hizb’allah which is rumoured to have abandoned some military positions as soon as the Druze threat was public.

Below, a series of updates on what is a breaking story and one with consequence.

This Reddit thread is a must read. It has a lot of background on previous attacks the Druze people have done against the ‘Palestinians’ when they screwed with them.

Approximately an hour ago Hezbollah fired a rocket at the Druze town of Majdal Shams in Northern Israel which exploded in a soccer field resulting in the murder of numerous children:

While Israel has largely ignored Hezbollah’s constant attacks against residents in the North since Oct 8th, it will not be able to do so anymore. There is a generally understood rule that the Druze are not to be messed with as doing so results in dire consequences.

This is something Palestinians learnt all too well in 2022 when a Druze teenager who was seriously injured in a car crash in Jenin was taken off life support from the hospital he was being treated at and kidnapped resulting in his death.

Members of the Druze community in Israel immediately threatened to storm Jenin if his body was not immediately released along with some members of the community throwing explosives along with beating and kidnapping Palestinians in response. After 30 hours in captivity the body of Tiran Fero was unconditionally returned.

Everyone is well aware of Israel’s response after Oct 7th but the response that will be demanded by the Druze even if they have to enter Lebanon alone and on foot to get revenge on Hezbollah will make it seem like a joke. I can’t see Israel being able to prevent the inevitable response nor do I think it will stand in the way. In other words, the tit for tat has ended and Israel will now be in full out war with Hezbollah.

There are reports that Hezbollah has already started abandoning its military positions in Lebanon in anticipation of a severe military response however this is the least of Hezbollah’s worries as there are 250k members of the Druze community who live in Lebanon itself many of whom will want revenge as well.

In 2021, members of the Druze community of Chouya beat and captured members of Hezbollah who fired rockets at Israel endangering their village. As such I expect Hezbollah will not only be attacked by Israel but by the Lebanese Druze community as well.

Attacking the Druze is the definition of kicking a hornets nest. If Hezbollah hasn’t learnt this already they will learn it very soon: You do NOT fuck with the Druze.

Edit: It seems as though Hezbollah already knows what’s coming as they are already trying to deny their involvement in the attack.

In fact, more than they deny the attack, but Russian propaganda is already out claiming the missile that hit the Druze was an Iron Dome missile that went astray.

But it appears that the Israeli response is well under way on behalf of the Druze community…

Iran may want to mumble a few ‘prayers’ as well.
