Syrians in Maariyah, in the western Daraa countryside, staged a protest against Israel’s continued invasion of Syrian lands on Friday.

The Israeli army, which recently set up a base in the town, reportedly fired at the protesters, injuring one of them.

Images posted by local Syrian social media accounts showed protesters carrying banners, which read: “Free, free Syria, Israel get out.”

    Maybe believing you are gods chosen people, isn’t the best starting point when building relations?
    As I see it, the Israeli experiment has failed, and now it’s the responsibility of the countries behind it, to step in and close it down, or at the very least set boundaries.

        They will never say it failed because that’s like saying their god failed. Which is impossible. He works in mysterious ways incomprehensible to humans. He might make Israel fail for a hundred years because he likes the memes then just be like wham my son who is also me is back in the holy land.

      As a layman, I think boundaries are the ticket, with the establishment of a Palestinian state and strict border enforcement (territorial lines, not restricting movement).

        No restricted movement, like before Israel and Egypt closed the borders because of too much terrorism?

      “close it down”? Remove Israel? This is so absurd I do not know what to say.

        Yeah. There is plenty of fascist nations and failed empires that got removed or completely revamped in history.

        Remove the IDF and government to prisons, where war criminals belong, create a new state that is not based on any ethnic supremacy, but equal rights for everyone. Give back the stolen land to its rightful owners, as well as compensate the victims of crimes properly.

        Jews, Christians and Muslims used to life together quite well in Palestine before the Zionists came. The state of Israel is the greatest danger to the safety of Jewish people in the region and the world, as all fascist nations are ultimately the greatest danger to their own people or people they claim as their own.

        I do. Eliminate Netanyahu and force a full election of the Knesset. See where people stand. See what the people really want. If it’s fascism again so be it, but if it isn’t then there are some drastic strategic decisions to be made or reformed.
