About the Golan and Lebanon .. This is the last thing that was said Israel!

The Israeli newspaper “Jerusalem Post” published a new report in which it said that the northern Israeli regions bordering Lebanon and Syria must be blessed with security first in order to witness the required prosperity.

The report translated by “Lebanon 24” says that “two years have not passed since Israel has realized the price of ignoring threats on its borders, yet some people now talk about handing over strategic assets to Syria,” and added: “This idea is not only misleading, but also dangerous. Israel’s aspirations for peace and a prosperous economy cannot need the need for security. So, while Israel is comfortable with discussions of relations with Lebanon And Syria, peace and prosperity can only be achieved by guaranteeing security. For this reason, the intuitive matter must be clarified, which is that talking about the possibility of moving Mount Dove to Syria is very naive.
The report stated that “the Golan Heights is one of the most beautiful regions in Israel and the world.” He added: “Its unique volcanic anger, rich in archaeological sites, rivers and orchards, attracts local and international tourists alike. At the same time, the development of the Golan is linked to the border fence that extends for a distance of 100 km, which separates it, and Israel as a whole, from Syria.”
“The diplomatic efforts to normalize economic relations along the northern border of Israel, in the wake of regional transformations, can make a positive impact on the region. However, the idea of Israel abandoning the origins or strategic lands to achieve this normalization is a reckless idea. Any discussion about the waiver of the lands that Israel is currently controlled is completely separate from the security and humanitarian reality of Israel after the seventh of October. That black day is merely a shock, but rather a brutal reminder of the consequences of ignoring threats, confidence in the hollow promises, and allowing anti -forces to infiltrate the borders of Israel, “as he put it.
He added: “After the collapse of the regime of former Syrian President Bashar al -Assad, Israel was quick to take measures to ensure that the Syrian military origins did not occur in the hands of jihadi organizations or local groups. According to the lessons benefiting from the events that led to the current war, the Israeli army also established a buffer zone, thus providing a necessary depth between the Israeli population communities in the Golan and the Iranian -backed groups in Syria. The most important of these measures is to ensure Israeli control of the Sheikhoun mountain range, the strategy overlooking both Syria and northern Israel.
He continued: “We should be guided by these ideas now as well, so abandoning concrete strategic origins in the hope of peace will be a fatal mistake. Mount Dove, who was reported to be on the negotiating table, is not a bargaining paper. Like the rest of the Golan Heights, it is an integral part of the northern security cordon of Israel: strategic, security and national wealth. Allow Israel’s enemies to station there will open the door for Another infiltration, another massacre, and another disaster.
He added: “The people of Israel have woke up from illusions that threatened the lives of our children. We cannot bear their repetition. At the same time, the Israelis cannot bear the loss of hope in peace and prosperity. If, only if, Israel’s security requirements – that is, recognition of sovereignty over the Golan Heights, ensuring a permanent insulation area, and maintaining strategic depth – the door is open to new capabilities And exciting. ”
He continued: “When we face an option between the illusion of peace that threatens our children or realistic steps to secure their future, we have to choose security, and when we only guarantee it, we can discuss how to turn it into a better future.”
The report also claimed that “peace or normalization with Syria may achieve concrete economic benefits for the Golan and Galilee highlands.” He added: “Imagine new trade routes across the border. Common Natural. ”
He continued: “For the residents of the Golan, these developments may mean more job opportunities and investment, and a stronger local economy. As for Israel, it means converting the confrontation line into a bridge .. But, let’s be clear .. Nothing is possible if Israel’s security is threatened, without strategic depth, and without control over the highlands, and without a reliable insulation barrier, every economic promise becomes meaningless. Investor, no tourist, and no farms to flourish in the shadow of missiles and raids. ”
He continued: “The Israeli government must deal with any future negotiations with Syria out of clarity. Recognition of the sovereignty of Israel on the Golan Heights is not a matter of which Damascus may give us one day; rather, it is the basic starting point for any dialogue. The same applies to Israel’s continued control of other strategic resources; it is the minimum required to prevent another tragedy such as the October 7 attack.”
