I'll believe it when I see it; when Syrians who are already here are actually sent back, or when new arrivals from Syria showing up on our border are actually denied entry into the country. Not a second earlier.

And even then, I would still be inclined to assume that this is just a PR stunt due to the upcoming federal elections in February, and that the our pro-migration lobby will steer things back to the old status quo of quasi-open borders once the elections are over.

This is a good interview Learn what type of people took over Syria

If I’m interpreting the situation correctly, it seems Israel is advancing strategically to defend the borders and pressure the rebels into relinquishing the territory they’ve taken in the Golan Heights in 1973. The approach involves capturing significant areas, ultimately giving up most while retaining critical portions like Mount Hermon.
This strategy appears both calculated and pragmatic.

Israeli tanks are reportedly less than 3 km from the city of Qatana, which is 15-20 km from Damascus.

The MSM has been pumping a victory propaganda message to the US like this is good for the region and world..

There was video showing the rebel forces allegedly rounding up thousands of surrendered Assad military. For some reason Assad's military looked like a militia rabble of quickly armed civilians. The rebels looked like an actual with camouflage clothing and military equipment beyond a rifle.

Messaging did not match the video feed.

Now there is some story blasted about a prison being liberated.

The radical sunni HTS has no qualms about Israel even though being an ISIS offshot They're the freedom fighters.. They ignore Israel's land grab in the west. Palestinians in Gaza celebrate the fall of Assad And whoever thinks there'll be peace, well.. These are people/mercenaries who don't know anything besides war. A civil war is preprogrammed.

Do the Refugees go home now? Does Syria fulfill a humanitarian Muslim need to house the Palestinians now that Asshatd deposed?

I was actually thinking about why would Israel be ‘securing’ a bunch of villages in the south.

For the longest, there was the question where do you put a bunch of Gazans if you don’t want them in Gaza anymore. Egypt doesn’t want them, Jordan doesn’t want them. This may be a great opportunity for Israel to find a home for them with Golan heights being an amazing elevated terrain to make sure they are behaving below.

I was thinking about it too, but Israeli high courts wont allowed it

There is a bad way and a better way to do this.

Forcing people against their will= bad

Offering Gaza families a built camp, maybe housing already setup and some lump some of money per family to buy out their property in Gaza (idk let's say 100k USD, just round number for reference) then the deal sounds pretty good.

If i was the father of family of 4 living in the ruble of Gaza and got this deal, i would be tempted to take it. You get to escape the misery and start over.
