I do not think Russia is helping Israel, Israel wants Bashar al-Assad gone. Russia wants him to remain in control of Syria. Now why Israel wants Assad gone I don’t know. Surely al-Assad is better than ISIS.

Agree with your assessment. Or, put another way, does anyone really believe that once Putin gets his planes in place, he's going to allow Israel to cross into Syrian airspace and take out Iranian military?

Anyone?

I’ll bet money that Israel joins with Russia in the fight against Russia. They need stability in the region. Putin will reign in Assad and Israel will help them move forward with medicine and technology.
