U.S. military aid to Israel, big bet that there will be no countermeasures? Foreign media: US military bases in Syria were suddenly attacked

On 20 April, the House of Representatives of the United States Congress passed the so-called Israel Security Supplement Act, which pushed for more than $26 billion in military aid to Israel. The U.S. House of Representatives suddenly pushed for military aid because Israel was hit by a direct attack by Iran, which retaliated against Israel itself late on the night of April 13, during which a large number of drones, cruise missiles and ballistic missiles attacked Israeli military targets. It was also because Israel itself was hit by Iran that the House of Representatives of the US Congress passed the bill on military aid to Israel. In fact, the Senate, which is controlled by the Democratic Party of the United States, has already passed a bill to allocate military aid to Israel, but the House of Representatives has pushed for the passage of a new bill.

The United States has openly passed legislation to provide military aid to Israel, which is a big gamble that there will be no rhythm of countermeasures, because Israel has provoked public anger in launching a military operation against the Palestinian Gaza Strip, and Israel has retaliated against Hamas's "Al-Aqsa flood" military operation against Israel itself on October 7, 2023 through collective punishment. According to Palestinian figures, more than 33,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip as a result of Israel's military operations, and Israel has no intention of stopping its military operations, and air strikes have been launched in southern Gaza in recent days.

After the UN Security Council adopted a resolution calling for a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel, the United States is still providing large-scale military assistance to Israel, which has already exposed its strategic intentions, and the United States wants to continue to provoke the situation in the Middle East. On April 21, according to foreign media reports, the US military base in Syria was suddenly attacked, and four rockets attacked the US military's Harab Alegir airport in Hasakah Province in northern Syria. Judging by the information that has been made public so far, it was the Iraqi Shiite forces that launched the attack.

In fact, before the Iraqi Shiite forces launched a strike, the armed forces were hit by an airstrike on their headquarters in Iraq, and the US Central Command immediately dissociated itself from the situation, claiming that the US military did not launch a corresponding airstrike. Judging from the photos released by Iraq, the Shiite militant headquarters was badly damaged, and it is obvious that it is not an ordinary weapon, but it is very likely that it was caused by a strike with precision-guided weapons. The Shiite forces in Iraq are part of the Iranian-backed "Arc of Resistance" and have long been a thorn in the side of the United States and Israel as their strategic goal.

Judging from the public attack by Iraqi Shiite militias on US military bases in Syria, Iran and Israel have now resumed the "shadow war", for which US military bases are also the target of the "Arc of Resistance" because of the long-term support of the United States for Israel. The U.S. military is illegally deployed in Syria and is also engaged in the theft of Syrian oil and food, for which multiple military forces are fighting back. After the Israeli bombing of the Iranian embassy in Syria came to an end, calm has not been restored in the Middle East, and the actions of the Shiite armed forces in Iraq have already explained Iran's attitude, and if the United States continues to support Israel, Iran will not be relentless.
