U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, left, shakes hands with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, during their visit to Netanyahu's official residence in Jerusalem, Thursday March 21, 2019. Netanyahu has praised U.S. President Donald Trump's recognition of its control over the Golan Heights as a holiday "miracle."
The ministry also said Damascus is now more intent on liberating the Golan, “using every possible means.” Israel unilaterally annexed the Golan Heights in 1981. The U.N. Security Council resolution 497, issued after the annexation, refers to Israel as “the occupying power” and says Israel’s attempt to “impose its laws, jurisdiction and administration in the occupied Syrian Golan Heights is null and void and without international legal effect.”
That look says Bibi knows what saps his allies fundamentalist Christians, like Pompeo, really, really are.
Hey, lets go to war!
Who care God allow all things. Life go on so do Allah promise truth with those who allow Allah God to manifest and keep his promise for all those who are wicket.The righteous should seek refuge in Allah for those who believe. Only when he decide. No one know the future but HE.
This 'annexation' sets bad precedent.
Waaaaaa who cares what Syria commies think?
Abba Eban said, “The Arabs never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity.” They have had numerous opportunities to make peace with Israel, but instead have committed to its destruction. This stands as fact even for those who dislike Israeli policies.
Syria? OK...anybody else? We're listening...so far, crickets
And the 6000 year old war of 'religion' continues unabated. Pathetic, truly a pathetic spectacle from all views. Humanity does not deserve to survive. It should save the cosmos and perish.
who is trump to recognize israeli sovereignty over golan heights ? the land in question does not belong to the US or israel. it is crystal clear they are sowing seeds of war whether it comes tomorrow or 5 yrs later but why ? how does it serve humanity ?
That is the price Syria must pay for freedom and peace. Even though they never had a choice...
Just ignore him and crack on.
cryborg Who has major interests in Golan Heights? Look up Genie Energy.
How credible is UN neutrality in this Golan Heights nightmares waiting to prolonge the Wars the Middle East...when we only see the Zionist State flag next the UN_flag with no sight of The Syrian flag.!? I guess UN has acknowledged years ago what MrTrump has just Tweeted.!
2/ This only strengthens Netanyahu position just prior to Israel's election. Funny how Trump is even colluding w/ other countries to affect their elections. Must have learned by watching the best (Russia) at affecting elections of foreign countries & getting a taste.
Who would have thought that Syria would be upset that the US, which has no authority, wants to give a piece of Syria to Israel?
✅ Trump is a strong leader making a tough call. It’s time to end the madness and give it all to Israel - then in the best of spirit ensure Palestinians get a fresh start and a leg up somewhere else. To continue tit for tat another 50 years is stupidity.
United Nations Security Council resolution 497, adopted unanimously on 17 December 1981, declared that the Israeli Golan Heights Law, which effectively annexed the Golan Heights, is 'null & void & w/o international legal effect' & further calls on Israel to rescind its action.
So what?
Get use to it D's...this is how Winners roll- Tired Much?
Don’t they have their own issues over there?
MIGA!
..and the Democrats shout 'I stand with Assad!!'
