Bashar al-Assad committed the sin with the Axis... and Iran moved its arms into Syria |
This is Nasrallah threatening from southern Lebanon and vowing to Israel to
respond and avenge the assassinations, and then he goes to Syria and gives Assad
a justification for his silence, then
accuses the Syrian opposition with all its spectra of being agents but at that same
moment, Assad's TV ignored Nasrallah's speech for the first time
As if he was telling him, "We will fight with you and we will not listen to you." This
time, the Syrian regime led by Bashar al-Assad is in the crosshairs of accusations,
not only in the arenas of its actions but also
any comment that came out of it. The killing of Fouad Shukr and he did not offer
condolences to Assad for it, and the killing of Ismail Haniyeh, and Assad did not
mourn him. The Golan was also struck and it flared up, and he did not fire
A single bullet and his chief of staff is cooking up a Narnia agreement without
Assad referring to it, and the Axis is just friends
For many years, Khomeini's Iran has been raising two slogans: the first is death to
America and the second is death to Israel, and it says that it has an axis or alliance
in the region to fight these enemies. The axis is formed by the Hezbollah militia in
Lebanon and the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria, and includes with them some
Palestinian factions. Thus, it says that it is besieging Israel from all sides, and that,
as the leader said, it is, Its Revolutionary Guards were once capable of wiping Israel
off the map in just seven minutes. This is only in Iran's opinion, but on the ground,
things were different. The October 7 attack launched from Gaza last year was an
important case for Iran to show off its power in the region and at the same time
confirm that its axis is strong and working efficiently. In fact, Iran and its militias in
Yemen, Iraq, and Lebanon moved to strike Israel. Although most of those
strikes, if not all of them, were not successful, they strengthened Iran's position in
the region and were considered a confirmation of the unity of areas in the axis.
However, one front remained still and did not fire a bullet at Israel, which is the
Syrian front, which is controlled today by the Syrian regime.
In contrast, Israel did not neglect that front at all, which has always been the scene
of repeated Israeli raids. Since October 7 Lastly, Tel Aviv has carried out dozens, if
not hundreds, of raids on Syria and has focused on Iranian militia sites there. It has
also killed dozens of Iranian advisers on Syrian territory and put the Aleppo and
Damascus International Airport out of service several times.
The most prominent of its strikes was targeting The Iranian consulate in Damascus
last April, which resulted in the killing of first-class Iranian leaders
Iran responded to that strike, as it says, and as Israel admitted, but Assad did not
respond to all of those strikes, nor to the strongest strikes of them
but always remained silent militarily and expressed his support for the Axis with
statements here and there. All of this passed and was not surprising since Assad is
moving in an important phase where he seeks to expand the normalization
process with the Arab environment and move on a fast track to normalization with
Turkey and even European countries
but the axis never excluded Syria from that equation and considered it a
fundamental pillar in it until the most important and prominent moment came in
which the term unity of areas appeared again for the axis in Israel. It struck
Hodeidah in Yemen then assassinated Shukr in Lebanon and after that
an hour later, it assassinated Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, and at that time it was the
duty of the Axis led by Iran to respond to those attacks. At first, Iran did not deny
its intention to respond and strike Israel and the enemy of revenge came on the
tongue of its supreme leader about the unity of the arenas and opening fire on
Israel despite the fact that the event is huge and the region Approaching a
regional war, the Bashar al-Assad regime was in a parallel world that did not offer
condolences to Assad for the killing of Haniyeh and Shukr but was content
with condemning the attacks on Lebanon. Assad was on a quick visit to Moscow a
A few days before these articles occurred, where he met with Russian President
Vladimir Putin did not announce the visit until it ended. Here, question marks
appeared again, why does Assad not join the threats of the Axis
Everyone waited for the successive statements, and finally, the mention of Syria
came from Hassan Nasrallah, who said in a televised speech that Syria is not
required to enter the fighting due to its internal circumstances. He continued,
stating more than once that its armed forces are still deployed on a line of
hundreds
of kilometers inside Syria in the face of the other project that still has its eye on
Damascus. Then he accused the secular Syrian opposition of being
agents of Israel, while the Islamic opposition said that it is an agent of America.
With that statement, Nasrallah ended his talk about Syria, but all the events
and statements have many internal analyses and in the midst of a major regional
storm in the region, the Syrian regime itself was experiencing an internal storm by
excluding figures and even liquidating some of them when necessary Naturally, the
stocks were heading towards Iran's influence, which moves
everything in Assad's areas of control, which means that Iran is capable of opening
the Golan front against Israel, but Assad does not want that and is trying to
prevent any movement on those fronts. From a political perspective, many see that
Assad's silence has its clear reasons, which are summarized in presenting a new
image of himself to the West with any tension on his borders with Israel and that
he has enough influence to control the Iranian presence
in Syria. Assad sees these actions as a process of presenting his credentials to the
the international community again, especially the global system that he sponsors
the West and the United States, which appeared slightly in the recent period when
Turkey repeatedly flirted with him to restore relations to their former state
and when a number of European countries demanded the restoration of relations
with him, and even Italy's move to appoint an ambassador to Syria after years of
disconnection, and for this reason, it can be said that Assad wants to be the first or
the only survivor of that war in the region, and from the point of view of
supporters of
the axis ofIran, there is also a group that sees that this behavior and movement in
Syria is good and very important, as many analysts close to the axis confirm that
Iran does not want Syria to enter that war and the return of Syria under Assad's
leadership to the international community and its Arab surroundings means a lot
of gains for Iran and its axis in the region. On the other hand, some analysts believe
that Iran's great influence in Syria is It made it take a step back in risking a regional
war against Israel, as it considers it an advanced front in the entire region and
cannot risk it all that
The analyses are very realistic in light of Assad's continued silence, but news
appeared a few days ago that recalculates again and may show some
disagreement Within the axis and even Nasrallah's speech can be interpreted
differently, the Al Arabiya channel revealed its own sources that the Chief of Staff
in the Assad regime, General Abdul Karim Mahmoud Ibrahim visited Tehran
secretly and also made decisions that created his connection with Iran and added
that there are differences that the Syrian Chief of Staff agreed to transfer combat
equipment from the army to Hezbollah and that he allowed some Iranian militias
to launch
drones from Syria towards Israel last July, confirming that the Chief of Staff and all
without Bashar al-Assad's personal knowledge, this news Leads us to a different
scenario taking place within the same axis, as it confirms that Assad himself
refuses to enter into unity of arenas with the rest of the parties and that
Iran is working internally to move some militias or even military units from the
army to strike Israel, and in all cases, silence remains
The Syrian regime is the camp in the atmosphere and it does not seem that it will
take a position Clearly militarily against Israel in the near future, especially since
he has reserved the right to respond for years and still maintains it with every
Israeli targeting of Syrian territory, in addition to the relationship with Russia,
which is not devoid of Israeli messages, which some consider the point of contact
for Assad to stay away from the war or even the sole survivor
of it without any harm, so that Israel does not attack from areas under his control,
according to Russian directives and instructions in exchange for it being
generalized from new the West and globally. With This, Assad silence remains
worrying within the Iranian axis, and with the rise in the heat of the strikes and the
possibility of a regional war, Assad's fate and his position on it become more
complicated. Will he bet on silence this time as well, or will he not leave Iran, which
supported him until his last breath?
