SNIP..........


Iranian forces on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights fired approximately 20 projectiles or rockets at Israeli targets in the Golan Heights, Israeli military spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus said early Thursday.

He said that Israel intercepted "a few" of the rockets and there were no reports of casualties and that damage to Israeli positions was "limited."

The Israel Defense Forces said that the attack was carried out by Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps' Quds Forces, according to The Times of Israel.

Israeli airstrikes on Tuesday also killed at least 15 people, including eight Iranians, in the Kisweh area south of Damascus.

Put. down. the. Kool-Aid.

Iran and Israel have been headed toward possible war for some time, but this is Iran's first direct attack on Israel. Syria claims Israel fired into Syria and it was Syrian defenses that responded. Israel had fired at Iranian forces just over its border in Syria Tuesday. America's dishonorable betrayal of our commitment to the Iran nuclear deal has given Iran less reason to hold back. This is very serious.
