An Israeli government minister has hinted at a potential war with Syria, in response to footage of Syrian troops chanting slogans in support of Palestinians in Gaza. :-)

A military parade took place on Monday in Damascus, among many other events, to mark the first anniversary of the fall of longtime ruler Bashar al-Assad.

At one point during the parade, troops chanted: “Gaza, Gaza, Gaza, our slogan, night and day, bombing and ruin.

“We are coming for you, our enemy, coming, coming for you, even if you were a mountain of fire, I will make from my blood ammunition, and from your blood rivers.”
