Israel’s government issued a formal declaration of war against Hamas on 7th October 2023. But that doesn’t give it the right to attack Syria.
You don’t need to recognise the entity you are declaring war against as a state to do so. Cameroon declared war against Ambazonia (separatist group) on 4th December 2017.
Notably for this conflict, the First Syrian Republic declared war against Israel in 1948. While the two never agreed to a peace treaty, the First Syrian Republic no longer exists, nor its successor, nor its successor’s successor, Israel’s attack against Syria is—to put it very, very generously—of extremely dubious legality under international law. I don’t claim to be an expert in international law, but after the Assad regime was overthrown, I would consider the new Syrian Arab Republic as a legally different polity than its predecessor. I don’t recall hearing any confirmations from the new Syrian government that they want to continue war against Israel, so if that is all correct then Israel just attacked a neutral country that so happened to be populated by Arabs sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, which is honestly par for the course for the Israeli military.
No, it’s been a war for a while. It was even called the six day war. Also, it’s been a war between palestine and israel, it’s just that the palestinians have barely any resources, and israel is armed to the teeth.
you guys need to start learning english before you comment on shit.
Just doesn’t mean justice. It’s used in this context to indicate the only difference, since if the firepower roles were reversed, the situation would still be the exact same.
Anyone throwing their support behind either side thinking they’re all sunshine and rainbows is an idealistic , blinded idiot.
Omg could it be that it never was a war (a confrontation between two sovereign countries) and more like an internal uprising against a genocide?

Ah yes, “it was self-defense”
Not a war, but mass murder and genocide. But an Israeli defender like you would never call the conflict by it’s real name
What fucking israel defender? My line is “fuck them both”
