The IDF is concerned about 40,000 mercenaries and militia volunteers from Yemen, Iraq, and other countries who have gathered in Syria near Ramat HaGolan, Haaretz reported on Tuesday evening.
The militants are awaiting the call of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah to join the fighting in Lebanon.
“They’re not elite fighters but Hamas’s Nukhba terrorists weren’t professional and we saw what thousands of armed men can do when they raid a yishuv,” a senior security official told Haaretz.
“It’s a risk we can’t tolerate and if necessary, we’ll act in Syria to make it clearer to Assad that we won’t accept their presence there.”

It’s crazy how everything’s lining up for ר״ל a massive all out war. Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Iraq, Yemen, Jordan, Egypt, Hamas vs. Israel עם ישראל חי we have God we will always win !
if the israeli state and army continue to make war against yeshiva bachurim, they will lose against the arabs.

I guess you’re right only the secular boys should come home in body bags the yeshiva bachurim are “bessera mentchen”. Isn’t it terrible that the state wants them to share the burden.
NAFTALICOLEMAN please consider your remarks more carefully.
The overwhelming majority of Israelis are Mesorati or religious, it’s the Eruv rav that’s causing all the damage. Please daven for them in the bracha “ולמלשינים”.
According to major western new sources, these include Russian units that armed and equipped by Russia who are being “rented” by the Islamic terrorists.
The Israelis may feel a need to have the war now, since in four months the United States will either have a president and Congress that is openly anti-Israel, or at best a president whose isolationism precludes getting involved in foreign wars.
Leave BACHUREI YESHIVA ALONE!!! Only because of the Zechut of Torah we merit to prevail over Yishmael…
Kofrim should be sent in first to test enemy defenses. Then when the beracha of v’lamalshinim is nitkayem we will be zoche to victory
This is directly downstream of Donald Trump winning the 2016 Presidential election. But none of you care, he knows how to talk to you and get your money.
They should be zoche to do Teshuva! Why are we wishing awful things chalila onto our fellow Yidin who have nebech gone astray or who are otherwise Tinokos Shenishbu? Let them all be zoche to do Teshuva and let’s daven for the Ribono Shel Olam to be the Hashem Ish Milchoma.
