The Military Intelligence Division in the Israeli army has prepared a study on the situation in Syria, which was recently submitted to the General Staff, warning of “a creeping Iranian settlement and a wide dissemination of Shiite and Alawite ideologies.”
According to the study, the “settlement” is taking place near the borders with Israel, in the eastern part of the Golan, and constitutes “a fertile ground and a warm environment for the activity of the Lebanese Hezbollah and other Iranian militias.”
