A post on an Israeli the source analyzes a report by journalist Amit Segal and argues that the country willing to reach an agreement now but prepare for war later is Syria under President Ahmad al-Sharaa. The channel claims al-Sharaa is building a military force, adopting the name 'al-Julani' to signal his intent on the Golan Heights, and receiving backing from Turkey's Erdogan. The analysis calls for preemptive action against al-Sharaa.
An Israeli the source has published an analysis of a recent report by journalist Amit Segal, which stated that a country is willing to reach an agreement with Israel now but is preparing for war when the time is right. The channel, which specializes in Arab world affairs, argues that the country in question is Syria under President Ahmad al-Sharaa.
The analysis points to several indicators: al-Sharaa's patron Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who also hosts senior Hamas officials; al-Sharaa's military buildup, including mass production of drones and training of jihadist fighters, drawing lessons from the Ukraine war and Hezbollah's performance against Israel; and al-Sharaa's adoption of the nom de guerre 'al-Julani' — meaning 'the man from the Golan' — which the channel views as a clear signal of his territorial ambitions regarding the Golan Heights.
A monitored channel notes that al-Sharaa publicly presents himself as seeking peace, dressing in suits and speaking diplomatically, but argues that this is a tactical posture. The analysis recommends that Israel eliminate al-Sharaa and his successors, drawing from the strategy used against Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas. It also calls for the evacuation of Sunni villages in the Bashan region as a preventive measure.
As The Zioneer has previously reported, al-Sharaa has stated he is pursuing a security agreement with Israel but has not relinquished Syria's claim to the Golan. He has also ruled out Syrian military intervention in Lebanon. The analysis represents a hardline Israeli perspective on the Syrian threat.
