But that's not what I was asking! What do you think Iran's redline should be?
Should hitting Syrian SAM sites be a redline? Should a full scale invasion of Syria be a redline?
And at what point should Iran get involved directly? And by directly I mean firing missile from Iran at government installations in Bahrain or some other target! or some other direct military action!
Covert action is basically standard operating procedure for Iran I wanna know for you do you think there should be a redline in Syria where we say enough is enough!
And if anything I believe it's time for the Saudi's to pay the American are nothing but hired guns here!
My knowledge of Syrian operation are limited but I would say Turkey actively works with groups who want Assad gone and these groups actively provide intel and fight against Kurdish separatist and since these strikes by the most part were limited and comments coming out of Turkey in support of them don't necessarily mean much of anything because they really weren't directed at Iranians, Russians or any significant Syrian military target!
They basically charged the Saudi's probably upwards of a billion USD + billions in weapons sales to bring down a few buildings! So the biggest losers here were again the Saudi's that flipped the bill for the operation!
The answer of your question depends on many other questions' answer and info that neither I don't have nor have no access to them.
But base on my understanding,
Right now Syria has become a stage which in all sides are trying to impose their own will on other players and project their power. I don't know how much IR is willing to pay or actually could pay, but before putting red lines we should get out of this unbalanced situation or at least make it even. It's becoming a routine to see israel attacks and we wait to retaliate it after while later not at once which means we are not prepared we don't have different scenarios for different situations otherwise our responds should already be done before their jets return to israel. We always react to their act. This would give them time to do their job without any consequence or damage.
Therefore I think first we should have a clear understanding of our objectives in Syria and the willingness of Iran to get involved in Syria then we could discuss our red-line. 'casue so far we've not sent any game changer weapon into the Syria, even Russia have deployed Isakandar, S400, fighter jets, destroyer and submarine .. what we have deployed? some military adviser and drones.
What are Iran objectives in Syria?
