自建国以来,以色列和叙利亚长期处于敌对状态,迄今仍未建交。叙利亚爆发内战后,大国和地区势力插手其中,加之以叙边境冲突事件时有发生,地区局势和以叙关系更趋复杂,这给以色列安全带来了严重挑战。但在叙危机问题上,以色列并未追随盟友立场寻求推翻巴沙尔政权,而是在总体上保持中立的情况下,采取多种举措灵活应对,取得了较大成效。一方面,坚决反对伊朗及黎巴嫩真主党在叙利亚的军事存在,先发制人地打击消除边界和叙境内与伊朗及真主党有关的威胁;另一方面,积极争取美国与温和阿拉伯国家的支持,谨慎处理与俄罗斯的关系。但戈兰高地问题、伊朗与真主党影响、美国和俄罗斯因素等始终是制约以色列应对叙利亚危机、保障自身安全的主要因素。
<<Since its founding,Israel has been in a prolonged state of hostility with Syria and these two countries have not established diplomatic relations by far. After the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011,the proliferation of terrorism,the interference of great powers and regional powers,and the frequent border conflicts in this region,posed serious challenges to Israel’s security,and made the regional situation as well as Israel-Syria relations more complicated. In response,Israel didn’t follow its allies’ position to seek the overthrow of the Bashar regime,but took a generally neutral position with a variety of flexible measures,which gained some success to insure its security. Israel,on the one hand,resolutely opposed the military presence of Iran and Hezbollah in Syria and launched preemptive strikes to eliminate threats on the border and in Syria which were related to Iran and Hezbollah. On the other hand,Israel actively sought the supports of the United States and moderate Arab countries,and carefully handled its relations with Russia. However,the Golan Heights dispute,the influence of Iran and Hezbollah,the interventions from US and Russia constrained the effect of Israel’s policies on the Syrian crisis.
