I believe they are there fighting against Al Qaeda and ISIS just like the Americans and it's allies are.... the only difference is that they don't want to topple Assad.
Ahhhh...they're altruists. Got it.
I'm sorry... I know you truly do believe that is the real reason they're in Syria.
What don't you get about they where in Syria, Iran and Hezbollah are allies of Syria, they are fighting ISIS. They have the right to be there Israel does not. Better question is why are Israel bombing people fighting ISIS?

Besides the IDF wets themselves when they face Palestinians what do you think they would do if they faced a real military?

I think historically, the last time Israel faced a real military - in the form of the various Arab nations - it has been the Arabs who have "wet themselves".
Regards
What various Arab nations would those be?

I have to wonder why Israel has never targeted Al-Qaeda or ISIS in Syria? How come Al-Qaeda and ISIS have never targeted Israel?
That is a question I asked a couple of years ago. After all Al-Qaeda were behind 9/11, 7/7 and the Paris attacks. You would think,with Israel on their doorstep, they would have attacked them a number of times.

Why would Israel attack groups that attack nations that Israel wants to attack?
Iranian military aid to Hezbollah transits through Syria, and Israel has been accused of previously targeting Hezbollah positions in that country and on the Lebanese border.
Iran and Hezbollah are planning 'imminent' joint invasion of Israel's northern Galilee region according to 'high level intelligence'
- Israel carried out airstrike on convoy in Syria on Sunday killing 11 people
- Among them were commanders from Iran and Lebanon's Hezbollah
- Today Israeli general warns they were likely planning attack on Galilee
- Israel moving troops to region after Tehran warned of 'crushing response'
Senior Iranian and Hezbollah figures killed in an airstrike in Syria this weekend were likely planning an 'imminent' attack on Israel, security sources have claimed.
Six Iranian army chiefs died alongside five Hezbollah militants after an Israeli helicopter fired rockets at a convoy in the Golan Heights region on Sunday.
Among those killed was Iranian General Mohammed Allahdadi, as well as commander Abu Ali Tabatabai, who is known to have worked with both Hezbollah and Iran.
Today Major General Eyal Ben Reuven, a former deputy head in the Israeli Defense Forces, accused the senior military figures of meeting to plot an attack on Israel.
Research group The Israel Project came to a similar conclusion, saying that the presence of Tabatabai 'probably indicates operations aimed at overrunning Israeli border towns.'
The warnings come just a week after Hassan Nasrallah, leader of Lebanon's Hezbollah, warned that the group 'is ready and prepared for a confrontation in the Galilee and beyond the Galilee.'
