Israel and Syria are not exactly allies.
Last time I checked US and Syria are not allies either. Israel has a lot more at stake here than the US.

True. But Syria is in a constant state of war with Israel (#trueevenifitdidnthappen), as opposed to the US, who they don't like, but aren't actively trying to pick a fight with.

Listen, That's why I wrote "This guy", to show another perspective, another possobility. Also, Notice if you look at the next line in my comment I said "you have a point".

+1
There are many reasons why Israel can't get involved with Syria, Strength is only one of them. Israel is not the US. Even the US would not go in without world backing.
All these things are obvious to most.
For someone to equate Israel with the US in terms of not being allies with Syria is the epitomy of clulesness. The US had an ambassador there up until a little while ago. The US has many contacts who are allies with Syria. The US has world esteem and power. Syria is still contesting the Golan Heights. Syria a mere 40 years ago attacked Israel. Israel is Syria's neighbor and can't afford to get rockets lobbed into it's cities through syrian and it's allie Iran proxies like hezbollah, hamas,. etc; etc;

Don't expect the other member to understand, When someone could miss the boat so much and take my sarcasm and  my showing that the world indeed is not interested in Syria, as anti amricanism, it speaks volumes about his comprehension skills.

You can argue all you want but a minimum of respect is IMHO called for.

I am willing to bet the Syrian rebels would accept help from Israel.

I am willing to bet any move Israel makes in any direction on this matter will be twisted by the world, then roundly condemned.

Direct intervention in Syria's civil war to bring down President Bashar al-Assad would be illegal in the absence of a UN resolution, MPs warned the Government last night.
