US Politician Learns Geography From Israeli Warlord
When Newsweek highlights an "Israeli Druze leader" urging Trump to challenge Assad, they gloss over inconvenient details. This isn't just about 'regional stability'; it's about legitimizing Israel's 1967 occupation and 1981 annexation of the Syrian Golan Heights. The international community, including the United States, pretty much universally condemned that land grab, at least until Netanyahu got
a phone call in 2019. The article implicitly validates the notion that Trump, already cozy with Netanyahu's expansionist agenda, should further meddle in Syria for Israeli interests—interests that frequently involve holding onto conquered territory. One might wonder if the concern for the Syrian Druze extends to other occupied populations, or if it's merely a convenient pretext for further
geopolitical maneuvering that benefits one power above all. The selective outrage, or lack thereof, over international law is simply breathtaking.
