The countries of the Gulf Sunni Muslims , under the leadership of the regional power Saudi Arabia, have supported the Syrian rebels with money and weapons in the fight to overthrow Bashar al -Assad ally Iran. Hezbollah , established in 1980 to fight the Israeli occupation forces in southern Lebanon , sent their fighters to fight alongside the army in the civil war in Syria.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at the United Nations that the new president of Iran Hassan Rouhani is a " wolf in sheep's clothing " and added that Israel is prepared to act alone to prevent Tehran could get to the manufacture of a ' atomic weapon. Netanyahu stated very explicitly that Israel, in the event of failure of diplomacy , is willing to make alone military action against Iran. Israel will never agree that nuclear weapons may come into the hands of a rogue regime that has promised several times in recent years of wanting to wipe Israel off the map.
President Obama is trying to convince, we have to wait at least until the middle of next week for the final vote, the Congress to support military action against Syria to punish President Bashar Al- Assad for ordering the killing of hundreds of people with toxic gas.
But what will the punishment consist of ? Military targets hit by U.S. missiles? Bombardment of the presidential palace in the style of Assad Regan bombed the palace of Gaddafi? Fixed targets , which could include airfields? For the moment, we know with certainty that the attack will not follow an operation "boots on ground".
The Syrian government denies that he gassed his own people and has vowed to defend themselves from attack Westerners.
The majority of the population until yesterday, in favor of foreign interventions, which now seem a reality begins to worry, nourishes the justified fear that in case of intervention there may be many victims among the civilian population.
