The law of survival if it’s Israel.

It’s a great job by the IDF.

Maybe Israel is clearing out the air route on its way to Iran.

This is my take as well, and I suspected at the time that this was the real reason why the Obama administration was so eager to commit to air strikes as well -- they may have been intending to clear a path for an Israeli strike.

***I certainly hope the US didn’t so it.***

With several recent events, I am thinking it was the US

I’d expect the Israelis are behind this and it is the opening phase of their soon to be, attack on Iranian nuclear sites. Obama has zero ability, now, to reign in the Israelis as they are convinced he is an enemy. Israel would do well to destroy all the possible places that could be used for retaliatory strikes from Iran and Syria, prior to things going hot. It would make sense to take out as much as they can, slowly, so it doesn’t trigger an all out retaliatory strike.

If it was Israel, they are again playing with fire, as they did in the early days in support of the founders of Hamas in opposition to the PLO.

The ONLY victors to arise from the ashes of an Assad regime will be Syrian-Sunni, Muslim Brotherhood, Wahabi-cleric affiliated Islamists and they, more extremely than Assad, will see Arab and Muslim dominion over all “Palestine” as necessary.
