When I heard that the IDF had just bombed the Ministry of Defense and the Presidential Palace in Damascus, I could hardly believe it. I thought that we would have at least a short period of relative stability in the Middle East, but perhaps I was wrong. In my opinion, Israel and the new government in Syria are now essentially in a state of war. According to Israeli authorities, the IDF has already conducted 160 airstrikes inside Syrian territory and they are fully prepared to conduct even more…

As of Wednesday afternoon, the IDF had undertaken 160 aerial attacks on Syrian regime forces in and around the vicinity of Sweida in southern Syria, where Israel says the regime’s forces are slaughtering Syrian Druze.
In addition, the IDF has attacked, and possibly destroyed, Syria’s Defense Ministry, and also attacked part of the Presidential Palace in Damascus. Dozens or more Syrian regime forces are said to have been killed in IDF attacks.
IDF sources said that the military is ready for a multi-day campaign to convince Syrian regime forces to withdraw from Sweida and leave the Syrian Druze their autonomy.
I don’t know why this isn’t getting a lot more attention from major news outlets in the United States.
The airstrikes that hit the Ministry of Defense and the Presidential Palace in Damascus were extremely dramatic, and it is being reported that they sparked “panic in the streets”…
“The heavy blows have started” Israel’s defense minister Israel Katz has posted to X above a video (below) showing a Syrian news presenter abruptly taking shelter after a massive explosion in central Damascus.
The rare daytime aerial attack by Israel in the heart of Damascus created panic in the streets, and quickly after huge columns of smoke lingered over the downtown area. There are casualties, with state news agency SANA quoting the Health Ministry as saying that at least three were killed and nine people wounded in the Israeli attacks.
If you have not seen footage of the airstrikes in Damascus yet, I would highly recommend checking it out.
There are reports that prominent mosques in Syria are already calling for jihad against Israel.
If all-out war erupts, the IDF will not hold back.
Could this be the beginning of the end for Damascus?
The reason why Israel is intervening is because Druze residents of Sweida are reportedly being slaughtered…
The violence began with recent clashes between local Druze and Bedouin populations around the town of Sweida in southern Syria. Community leaders, activists and Israel’s military said the violence worsened after government forces intervened.
On Wednesday, Druze residents of Sweida reached by phone described scenes of executions, house burnings and looting. Several thousand residents fled toward the Jordanian border to escape the violence, while thousands more fled into the countryside.
There is a large Druze population in northern Israel, and many of them started pouring across the border to protect the Druze that were under assault in Sweida.
