Earlier
today, hundreds of IDF cadets completed the Intelligence Officers'
Course at a graduation ceremony attended by the Head of the IDF Military
Intelligence, Major General Aviv Kohavi. At the ceremony, Maj. Gen. Kohavi addressed the current state of affairs in the region:
"It
is possible that in the long term, the winds of change will carry
opportunities and good tidings. However, in the immediate future, the
dangers are increasing, with some fronts witnessing the seeds of new
threats being laid."
"Syria
is the most disturbing example, drawing thousands of global Jihad
activists and radical Islamists from the region and from beyond. They
are establishing themselves in Syria, not only to oust Assad, but to
promote their vision of a Sharia state. In plain sight, on our doorstep,
Global Jihad stronghold of great magnitude is being established."
"This reality could potentially effect not only Syria and the border with Israel but Lebanon, Jordan, Sinai and the entire region as well."
