Congress Wants Recognition of Israeli Sovereignty over Golan Heights
(Washington Free Beacon) Adam Kredo - Congress is renewing efforts to press the Trump administration into recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights on Israel's northern border with Syria. The House's National Security Subcommittee will hold a hearing Tuesday to examine how recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the territory could bolster U.S. national security efforts to stem the flow of terrorists. Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) said: "U.S. recognition of the Golan Heights is overdue....As we've seen with the successful relocation of our American embassy to Jerusalem, when the U.S. leads with purpose and conviction, good things happen."
