US Mediates Syria-Israel Talks... About Stolen Land?
According to The New Arab, Israel and Syria are setting up a communication mechanism after US-mediated talks. Syria's official stated that 'strategic files' can't move forward without a binding timeline on Israel’s withdrawal from the Golan Heights. This isn't groundbreaking news—Israel has occupied the Syrian Golan since 1967, annexing it in 1981, a move widely condemned by the international
community but recognized by the Trump administration in 2019. One might wonder what a 'communication mechanism' entails when the fundamental 'mechanism' of international law regarding occupied territory is conspicuously absent from the headlines. The US, which brokered these 'talks,' continues to provide substantial military aid to Israel, totaling billions annually, enabling the very occupation
it now pretends to mediate. How many 'dialogues' does it take for a nation to acknowledge stealing land?
