Amos 1:3, 6-7
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron.
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof.

The 3 transgressions of Syria can be thought of as the 1948, 1967 and 1973 Wars. This is Syria's 4th transgression against Israel.
Gilead is the name of the kidnapped soldier.
And, of course it mentions Gaza and the captive going to "Edom" which is moder day West Bank.
OH NOES!!!11
