  1. TRUMP HAS HAS GONE TOO FAR,THIS IS AGAINST THE INTERNATIONAL LAW ,THIS IS WAR,NEVER DOUBT IT !!ISRAEL STARTS ALL WARS ,EGYPT/SYRIA WAS ATTACKED ,AND THE US./UK./HELPED THEM WINNING IT !NEVER LET THEM LIE TO YOU ,THIS IS THE TRUTH !!

  2. Why does real news keep saying there was a civil war in Syria? This is a lie! Syria was attacked by the West there was no civil war!

  3. The Trump administration is inept and criminal. He is also a serial liar–shameful and pathetic. He only wants to make money for himself, he is the worst US president ever!

  4. PHYLLIS BENNIS IS THE MOST HONEST JEWESS EVER EXISTED …!!! SHE ALWAYS
    DEFENDED THE RIGHTS OF ALL DEPRIVED ,ESPECIALLY THE PALESTINIANS RIGHTS.

  5. I see what you are saying but I don't care about either of these nations.
    The middle east has been a mess for a while now with corrupt elements on all sides.
    Does the idea of fair play make sense for that region? It might be desirable (in an idealistic sense or as a decision making convenience), but after a certain line has been crossed …entirely improbable. I am not even sure what strategic calculations go into int policy there or what hidden sociological factors are at play.

  6. So that's why the Israeli lobby got Trump elected so he could give them the Golan heights. The six day war was well planed by Israel. The failed attempt to sink the USS Liberty was all part of it.

  7. Why Israel has to endure so much? It has very little land and needs the water. If water and other natural resources become more scarce in the future people will kill for them. It's illogical to follow "the Law" so strictly while other countries enjoy all the water and resources they want like if those were given by God instead of History. Canada should share its land with all the people in the 3rd world currently in a major population boom.

  8. And Bibi can recognise the occupied Syrian territories controlled by the US military as US territory.
    Maybe Putin can give the Galilee to the Syrians as compensation.

  9. A room full of “Dirtbags”. All of them have shit between their ears. Completely lawless behavior by the US.

  10. Thank you Phyllis Bennis for making the historical facts of the Golan known. Thank you for setting the record straight about the modern view of the illegality of an occupation of a territory captured in conflict no matter the outcome of that war. The archaic "might makes right" goes with everything else Zionist and imperialist.

  11. The 67 Six-Day War was not started by Israel. It was started when dictator Nasser of Egypt blocked the Suez canal and gulf of Aqaba which by international law is it was considered an act of War

  12. Trump is doing special favors for the millionaire/billionaire, zionist jews in America, in exchange for funding his 2020 campaign. It's as simple as that. Trump has no 'ideology' or foreign policy strategy. Sheldon Adelson will now fund his reelection.

  13. For all the attention that the Democrats and the media put into Russia gate with Trump. They should have used that energy with Trump and Israel. I guess you cant have collusion with an ally. With someone that controls your government such as Israel does. It is a moot subject. You get what you put out. Now you have Trump doing the happy dance and Israel doing what the F they want around the world. What is the real fact is you have Israeli people acting like the children of the promise and doing everything that the Torah proclaimed. But these people are Kabballah worshippers and have no affinity to the Scriptures. They are imposters. And time and prophecy will bear witness. So all you evangelicals,. Your thinking you know the scriptures will be your doom. This is prophecy being fulfilled. Only those and Israel now and those here in America following this will be on the wrong side of history.

  14. Well here we go again, as the US defies international law in regard to the fiasco of deeming ithe Golan Heights as part of Israel which means that China will perceive that it also is not obliged to respect international law. So the red dash line will be inked in as a solid line. Thanks again, Trump is such a fool.

  16. Did Congress recognize the annexation? Did other government organizations? Does the rest of the world recognize the annexation? Trump. It's a media stunt, his favorite kind. Twitter rules!
