The military and security strategies of the Zionist regime in confronting the Islamic resistance (Case Study: The Syrian Crisis)

The developments in Syria have always been important for the Zionist regime. Accordingly, since the beginning of the Syrian crisis in 2011, the Zionist regime has adopted various military and security strategies towards the country. Therefore, the present article seeks to answer the fundamental question: "What are the military and security strategies of the Zionist regime in the face of the Syrian crisis?" (Issue). To answer this question, while collecting data in a library method, a qualitative (descriptive-analytical) method has been used (method). The result is that the Zionist regime, after failing to adopt a unified strategy at the beginning of the Syrian crisis, tried in 2013 to support allied groups in addition to assassinating resistance commanders and bombing their positions, and by persuading the United States to have a more serious presence in Syria. Negotiations with Russia prevent Iran's long-term presence in Syria. Since 2015, Gideon's strategy has been on the agenda of the regime's officials, which is based on the readiness of the army forces to participate in asymmetric wars, increase intelligence aristocracy, and so on. Finally, he pursued the Momentum strategy, which identified the Islamic Republic of Iran as the most important threat to the Zionist advance in Syria. In this strategy, while emphasizing the improvement of the military intelligence unit and equipping the military forces with better weapons, the change in the structure of the army and the formation of the "Command of Iranian Affairs" is emphasized (findings).
