    I guess the message is clear. Syrians should simply forget about getting the Golan Heights back. The international law applies only to certain countries. Some countries get away with literally anything.

    Israel will never give up Golan Heights, Benjamin Netanyahu vows

    Israeli leader says ‘time has come for international community to face reality’ over disputed region

    The Syrians don't have the time to focus on that issue right now, most of them are still surviving.

    What better time for the Israelis to make the announcement, and when Syria try's to reclaim the land, Israel will scream it is a victim of Syrian aggression!

    'To the victor the spoils' as far as I'm concerned, especially when the loser was the aggressor.

    Actually Israel was the aggressor, but never mind facts.

    Hope you still feel that way when someone walks in and kicks you out of your house, to the victor the spoils!

    It was Syria that attacked Israel. In any case the area should be given back to Syria at some point, after Assad is removed and the country is stable again though.

    If Assad is removed the country won't be 'stable again' because Islamic State et al will take it over! :wall:

    Yes, and that from a man who 'only wants peace'. Does he enjoy inviting even more conflict, one wonders?

    Not so. As it happens, last night I was watching a documentary about the rationale of pre-emptive strikes on Freeview channel Yesterday, and the Six-day War to which you refer was featured. Considering that tiny Israel was surrounded on all sides by Arab countries intent upon destroying it, it was a matter of survival, and the cumulative pre-emptive strikes were the only way to ensure it. When you're up against those kinds of odds 'all's fair in love and war'? So you see, your accusation is seriously flawed. Since you're always championing the underdog, perhaps you ought to reflect upon what would have happened to Israel and its populace at the hands of the vicious Arab bullies had it succumbed, and then ask yourself if (in this instance) you're not guilty of hypocrisy? Or worse?

    Actually, if you listened carefully (I watched it as well) it was clearly stated that Israel attacked first. It was the perception that an attack might be imminent which prompted Israel without any evidence of aggressive intent on the part of the Arabs. Yes, poor, tiny and nuclear armed Israel. What a pathetic victim-and always the aggressor.

    When is Britain returning Northern Ireland to the Irish? The Arabs started a war in 1967 in order to destroy Israel, but Israel won. Then the Arabs cried "foul" and wanted the land that was seized to be given back. Over the years Israel said it would give most back for recognition and peace, but the Arabs, of course, are bent on Israeli destruction, so it was rejected. Too bad! If the Arabs had won in 1967, where do you think Israel would be today?

    You have got to be kidding! I wonder how many times the British kicked people of other countries out of their homes so they could add the land to their "empire." Such hypocrites--- do as I say, but not as I do mentality.

    Well that's what a' pre-emptive strike' is all about isn't it? You know as well as I do that the combined Arab countries were building up for it, so I'm afraid I have to conclude that you're skewing the facts to fit a personal agenda, and that agenda is based upon anti-Semitism, which in turn proves my suspicion that you are a hypocrite. I'm disappointed - I thought you were made of better stuff. I don't want to prolong this discussion.

    No I don't know that the Arabs were building up to anything, and nothing to date has confirmed your assertion. You can think whatever you want; makes no difference to me whatsoever.

    The Irish, according to recent polls, are quite content with the status quo.

    And how could the Arabs have started the 1967 war when it was Israel who attacked first?

    The British did many things wrong, including allowing the colonisation of Palestine by largely European Jews, but you are just deflecting as Israeli apologists usually do.

    The fact is that Israel attacked first in the 1967 war.

    "got away with it" :)

    Lets expand your scope abit to what's going on in your world, here is a list of territorial disputes, the Golan is one of many unsolved disputes.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_territorial_disputes

    Israel will stay in the Golan wether international community to face reality or not, no getting away from that.

    That depends on the method they will use to get it back, targeting innocent civilians will not make us scream (not as well as your side screams anyway) but it will (*)(*)(*)(*) us off to a whole new round of UN condeminations.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Israsel attacked Egypt because it had Tank division in a place it shouldnt, It didnt attack Syria or Jordan.

    - - - Updated - - -

    Egypy, not Syria or Jordan but if you treat them all as same entity than Syria lost on account of Egyptian aggression, and vast vast stupidity.

    We only went throu it a 1000 times before but perhaps you forgot :

    Egypt closed the strains to Israeli ships
    Egypt banished the UN inspectors
    Egypt crossed the canal with Tank division on way to Israel
    Iraqi froces crossed Jordan to the WB, threatening to divide Israel in an invasion

    The stuppidity in the plan was in thinking Israeli will be too terrified to act and will just sit there waiting for an attack.

    Egypt had a tank division in Egypt. Why shouldn't it have been in Egypt?

    Perhaps you should look to your own threats, broken cease-fires, bombings and invasions of other nations. Or was that all 'defensive'?

    I agree that Israel has every right to the Golan Heights and the aggressor Syria needs to worry about it's terror problem.
