But as I said, I don't want to see any of this happen. Its just my opinion, means about as much as everyone elses for that matter. None of us really knows how things are going to go over there, just have to wait and see.

Even I could be wrong. What Syria hopes going to happen when Israel returns fire is that all the other Muslim country will join them and attack Israel.

Most likely scenario:

Some fraction i Syria that support Assad makes some attacks against some area in Israel. The same goes for those fractions in Lebanon

Very unlikely scenario
Assad gives the order to his general...

And you are right, we can only wait and see. I too hope nothing bad is going to happen
