The US-led coalition fighting ISIS in Syria launched its third strike in as many weeks on pro-regime forces inside a deconfliction zone around al Tanf, near a border crossing in Syria's southeast desert.

Between Syria and Saudi Arabia, if one of them is losing too badly they will go toward open conflict.

I would say that Iran is more inclined to do this although they appear (are) to be winning in Syria. Iran has there boys in Brooklyn and Dearbornistan casing the place.

Are they feeling their oats?
Are they feeling the pinch?
Are the casing the place, putting the research on the shelf and waiting for a later date (or contingency).

Their boys were also at the Panama Canal.

Paraguay Argentinian and Brazilian border is already a Muslim hell hole. God knows how many Iranians there. It was a hell hole 5 decades ago.

Then the Chavista opened up Venezuela to the Iranians. Maybe Danny Glover met some?
