Israeli Officers: You’re Doing ISIS Wrong
The United States is headed for disaster in Syria, some in Israel are warning.
By BRYAN BENDER May 22, 2017

Yavne, the brigadier general, similarly described the Iranian influence as significantly more worrisome than ISIS or other Sunni Muslim terror groups:

“If I can be frank, the radical axis headed by Iran is more risky than the global jihad one," said Yavne. “It is much more knowledgeable, stronger, with a bigger arsenal.”

As far as these Israeli officers are concerned, the ideal strategy is
to sit back and let both types of groups duke it out—and work to contain the conflict rather than trying to end it with military force.

As the IDF intelligence officer put it, “the battle for deterrence is easier than the battle for influence.”

But does that mean the United States and its allies should simply allow ISIS to retain its so-called caliphate in parts of eastern Syria and eastern Iraq?

“Why not?” the officer shot back.
“When they asked the late [Israeli] Prime Minister Menachem Begin in
the Iraq-Iran War in the 80s, who does Israel stand for, Iraq or Iran, he said, ‘I wish luck to both parties.

They can go at it, killing each other.’ The same thing is here.

You have ISIS killing Al Qaeda by the thousands, Al Qaeda killing
ISIS by the thousands. And they are both killing Hezbollah and Assad.”
