For thus saith the Lord God; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.

From Ankara to Damascus to Jerusalem : Challenges and Opportunities

The post-Assad regime in Syria is now waking up from its dreams of unifying the war-torn, multi-ethnic country under its rule. Syria's neighbours are Turkey, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan and Israel, most of whom are either threatening or being threatened most of the time.

Due to various communities within Syria feeling vulnerable under this constant state of threat, they look for outside support, which may or may not coincide with the interests of regional powers such as Israel and Turkey.

What are the current opportunities and challenges facing Syria and its neighbours in this precarious period? Joining us for the analysis:
- Host : Jonathan Hessen : Senior Fellow, Hudson Institute and Host of TV7 Israel News
- Analyst : Amir Oren : TV7 Editor at Large and Host of Watchmen Talk
- BG (Res.) Yossi Kuperwasser : JISS President; former Head of Research Division, IDF, and DG of Israel Ministry of Strategic Affairs
- Prof. Russell Berman : Senior Advisor in the US State Dept; Director of the Middle East Project, Hoover Institute
