I have an alternative interpretation of Q's Israel crumb:

>Syria.

>Hold until CONF.

>MIL assets on the ground locked out of GZ.

>ISRAEL strike harmed ability to prove events.

>Clown report must be VERIFIED.

>Troop unwind to STILL occur.

Possible interpretation:

>Clowns plant evidence to try to drag us into a Syrian war.

>White hats call Israeli white hats and ask them to bomb the evidence.

>USA: "Well, we can't just go to war without evidence. Too bad, so sad." ¯_(ツ)_/¯
