No one should be surprised (but I was) at the fall of Syria. It's been many years since I read Amos, so I forgot about the prophecies regarding Syria. Amos said, among other things:
The ruler of Syria would be cut off
Damascus would be invaded
Gaza would be destroyed
The leader of Gaza would be cut off.
There is much more, including why God judged Syria and Gaza. You may want to read Amos 1 yourselves.
Israel has shown wisdom by destroying all the Syrian military hardware they could find. The terrorists who took over Syria won't be using against Israel or giving it to Hezbollah. The USA could learn something from this. USA left vast amounts of military hardware in Afghanistan. The Taliban has used it to enforce their evil regime on Afghans. Add this to the absurd release of billions of dollars to Iran, and I have to wonder what on earth is the matter with America's leaders.
Nevertheless, God is in control and has demonstrated this yet again. His word cannot fail. What He has promised, He will do.
