  What incentive does Israel have to listen to Russia?
  
  Israel likes being able to target Iranian weapons shipments heading through Syria to hostile militias and terrorist groups. Russia allows them to act with impunity.
  Iran has been trying to get the S-300 // S-400 // Russian jets, which would make things a lot more dangerous for Israel. It wasn't long ago that an Israeli F-16 was downed by an S-300.
context: Russia is already pumping tons of money into Iran (and likely a lot of other hostile nations) so uh... What incentive does Israel have to listen to Russia?
