Experts have suggested that those strikes may have paved the way for Israel to target key areas of Iran’s nuclear infrastructure more easily.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araqchi emphasized that developments in Syria are of great interest to Iraq and could cause a spillover of militia violence in the country. An Iraqi government spokesman said Assad had not requested Iraq send military backup, and Iraq does not intend to militarily intervene. Iran has enthusiastically supported Assad, and the government of Turkish President Erdogan has done little to hide its support of the Syrian National army, which hasn’t directly attacked Assad but targeted Kurdish forces.

Our wish is that this march in Syria continues without accidents.”

The Rapidly Shifting Syrian Civil War And The ‘Burden Of Damascus’
This last week, Syria blew up. It has always been a powder keg with so many antagonistic groups living in the nation. So, while it wasn’t a surprise, it was important. I’m sure many are confused about who is who in Syria, and, even more so, how it all relates to Bible prophecy. It’s a mishmash of people who hate each other and who can’t seem to put their differences aside and unite in order to attack a common enemy

A Reset for America
Trump’s team understands that it is impossible to tax our way out of this situation. The only path forward is to grow the economy faster than the debt. Once we turn that corner, the problem begins to address itself. I’m not saying it’s going to be all smooth sailing. True reform is always a challenging process. There will almost certainly be more inflation on the horizon (but not nearly as bad as if Kamala had won). This is an unavoidable consequence of decades of reckless government spending. Still, the outlook for the nation has improved dramatically since November 5th. We have a rare chance to make meaningful, lasting change in America.
