Looks like Assad’s forces cleared out the last of ISIS along the Golan Heights last night.

Iran has a land bridge across Iraq to Assad’s territory in Syria. Israel is likely to attack the border crossing bases Iran is building.

Iran is not leaving Syria. Assad and his Alawites are a sect of the Iranian shiites.

Russia only has so much influence over Iran and is very pleased to have their naval base at Tartus and elsewhere.

Iran and Hezbollah will be dealt with by Israel.

There are diplomatic moves being made now by the Russian envoy to reconcile/merge Hamas and the PLO and then begin to negotiate a solution to the Palestinian territories.

So everyone is tiptoing right now.
