  1. Perhaps we should ask the UNGA. Oh, we have already. 191 nations consider the Golan Heights Syrian.

  2. What do you propose as the alternative? That emissaries from all over the world convene in your mum's back garden? We need a forum for communication, even if we can't agree on some matters.

  4.  @jamespattinson-so7fu  Arab? Iranian. Hint: Iranians aren't Arabs.

  5.  @philipejem3614  It's not that hard. Hezbollah "wants" war with Israel because Iran wants it for them. It's called a proxy war.

  6. It's called a democracy. You may want to try it for size. By the way, Germany considers the Golan Heights to be under Israeli occupation.

  7. You're putting words into their mouth. How not very intelligent.

  8.  @I_Lemaire  Let's see. Two countries maintain that the Golan Heights are part of Israel. 191 countries beg to differ.

  9.  @I_Lemaire  The Golan Druze in particular mostly refuse to accept Israeli citizenship, preferring to stay Syrian. That should tell you enough.

  10.  @I_Lemaire  They mostly don't serve in the IDF. And who's lying here? The Israeli authorities will readily admit that the majority of the Golan Druze haven't taken Israeli citizenship. You're beating a dead horse.

  11.  @I_Lemaire  Duh, we're specifically talking about the Golan Druze, dum-dum. "The Druze from the Golan Heights do not serve in the IDF, however.", The Israel Project, Religious Freedoms: Druze "Residents of Majdal Shams and the other Golan Druze villages are not drafted into the Israel Defense Forces.", Wikipedia, Druze in Israel Again, you're beating a dead horse.

  12.  @I_Lemaire  Let's see what Israel's Ministry of Interior, which actually issues Israeli passports, thinks of it: "Of the 21,000 Druze residents on the Golan, Interior Ministry figures show that some 4,300 are citizens of the State of Israel.", Shomrim - The Center for Media and Democracy, September 4, 2022. Have I made any claims about the Golan Druze favouring Assad? I'm merely noting that factual information suggests that the majority of the Golan Druze aren't pro-Israel. Don't do the straw man thing -- it's puerile -- as is upvoting your own comments.
