The fall of the Syrian regime led by President Bashar al-Assad will cause a devastating crisis for Israel, said General Amos Gilad, the head of the Israeli Defense Ministry's Diplomatic-Security Bureau. Israel will face an Islamic empire in the Middle East, lead by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Jordan and Syria, Gilad continued. Israel will be threatened by wars with the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Syria and Jordan if the Syrian Revolution succeeds in overthrowing al-Assad's regime, Israeli army radio Galei Zahal reported. The Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Jordan and Syria aims to eliminate Israel and build an Islamic empire controlling the Middle East region, Gilad said. “Israel feels the dangers coming from Egypt, so it decided to develop relations with Turkey so it will not have to fight Muslims, which would certainly cause the end of Israel,” Gilad added.
