(Ha'aretz) Zvi Hauser - Netanyahu's request that the U.S. recognize Israel's sovereignty in the Golan Heights is the appropriate strategic compensation for the nuclear agreement with Iran - to set a permanent buffer zone that cuts off Tehran on the outskirts of Quneitra, and not on the Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) shores. This is the only way to restrain Iran's conventional aggression potential on the other side of the Golan border. The Golan makes up only 1% of what was until recently Syria. The moderate Sunni axis states won't fight a move that means exacting a territorial price from the Shi'ite axis of evil. Above all, reality on the ground is stronger than past fixations. There is no horizon on the Golan Heights but the Israeli one for stability. The writer was Israel's cabinet secretary in 2009-2013. 2017-02-17 00:00:00Full Article
