They've been pushing for a war in Syria which will likely spill into a war with Russia, ever since the destabilization of Iraq was complete. It's pretty obvious.

They need Syria for a pipeline. There is huge evidence that this was always the plan, and Trump got in the way, so they need to get him to move.

What is it with this pipeline? The cost of shipping it by sea is negligible - surely - in relation to piping it across Syria. My understanding is that the main reason has been that Syria was facilitating the supply of rockets to Hamas by the Iranians. Israel didn't like it.
