what Netanyahu or Obama is calculating. A united Hezbullah, Syria under Assad, and Iran are more of a threat to Israel than a divided Syria with puppet governments in Jordan, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Turkey is also an Ally and member of NATO. They also depend on puppet governments in Libya,Egypt and Iraq. They are working on puppet governments in Lebanon and Palestine. This is the whole scheme of the regime change agenda Obama has signed on to.
I think the entire scheme is flawed. These populations will not accept puppet governments controled by the West, just for the security of Israel. Iran is a bigger nut to crack, because it is not as divided along religious lines as the rest of the Middle East. Iraq is dominated by Shiites, and Iran already has enormous influence there among militias and the current Government. Getting rid of Saddam, which Israel encouraged, only helped Iran become more powerful. Hezbullah is just as strong a military force as the Taliban in Afghanistan, and probably even more powerful. You also have Russia backing up Assad, but they didn't do so with Saddam. If you ever heard of the Houthi in Yemen, they are also a signicant force backed by Iran. According to Wiki, they sent a few fighters to fight on Assad's side. I looked at some sources on them, and apparently they have 100,000 fighters which forced the Yemeni and Saudi Government into a Cease fire. They control their own territory in Yeman. They accused President Obama of War crimes and helping out the Yeman and Saudi Forces with Drone attacks.
