1. if reports are accurate, good work IAF. But the threats
Rafi ,   US   (12.02.17)
... and danger to Israel in the form of Iranian and Hezbollah presence in Syria will almost certainly continue.

More dangerous tests ahead...
2. Paper tiger Iran can only fight with many others help
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (12.02.17)
Needs Russia, Syria, Turkey, Hezballah, multiple Arab Shia militias against rag tag rebels.

Then they take credit for defeating ISIS when in reality it was done by brave by Kurds with US assistance.
3. Dealing with problem while it's still small
lazerbenabba ,   London England   (12.02.17)
"""The obvious conclusion is that it's better to handle a problem when it is still small than to bomb this facility when it is fully manned and causing many casualties"""
Perhaps the US of all political persuasions plus the EU et al should take note and then the dangerous fiasco of Nth Korea would have been nipped in the bud.
Inaction breeds confidence in dictatorships with the results that we have now.
Obama's red line over Syrian chemical weapons...zilch.
Mugabe sanctions not worth a light until his own military had had enough...37 years too late.
Crimea still under low key onslaught, another Obama bag of wind.
It only takes the Western Democracies to twiddle their thumbs whilst the dictators come out to play.

5. Genocidal Iran will continue its attempt to destroy Israel
C   (12.03.17)
the hitlerite shia terror regime is irrational and as such dangerous.
this regime is fueled by its shia revolutionary ideology which
dictates that the jewish state must be obliterated from the
middle east.
this ideology will not consider its military capabilities when facing
the jewish state, nor israel's strategic alliances.
the united states will not allow the vile rogue shia regime
to make attempts to annihilate israel.
herr mustache had a much larger and better army but was
eventually defeated by the allies.
6. Israel 1 - irgc 2
Tehraniporou   (12.03.17)
The irgc scored by taking over syria and israel tries to deter the irgc. Knowing the iranian psychology and resolve,when there is a strategic interest rest assured that they will keep building for the proxies and will send il padrino jafari or soleimani. The match is still ongoing. All of this nonesense when people in tehran are struggling to breath despite pollution and the looting of the economy by the guards mullahs and their affiliates.
