1. We'll remember these four states.....
David ,   Hartford USA   (03.26.19)
the next time some tyrant invades you and you come begging for us to fight your war.

Just think of the humanity, the decency of these four states: "We all stand by our conviction that even though Assad killed a half-million of his own people and forced several more million from their homes and turned them into refugees, we believe the Golan would be better off as part of Syria."

Time for the USA to remove itself from these countries. And if Iraq or Iran want to invade Kuwait or Qatar, so be it.
2. OF COURSE! WHAT ELSE IS NEW. THE A HOLE LEAGUE DOES NOT CARE
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (03.26.19)
About the livelihood of the Syrians in general. They just don’t want others to progress in life. Israel does not care and will move onto better future anyway. The land is in better care with Israel looking after it. All rMuslim countries are in mess in M.E.

3. The Gulf states, and any other country, in this case, must
Sjoerd van der Velde ,   Hoorn Holland   (03.26.19)
mind their own damned business. They have nothing to do with this. This also goes (even) for the United Nations.This is something between the United States and Israel
4. I reject Gulf states right to exist
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (03.26.19)
They are all provinces of the Arab empire included under the deceptive name of Arab League.
5. They reject because fake Philistines are Arabs too
Steve Benassi ,   Minneapolis USA   (03.26.19)
Arabs should dismantle all their illegal settlements on stolen Jewish lands.
6. WHERE IS ARAB SPRING WHEN YOU NEED ONE?
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (03.27.19)
Oil was the biggest curse given to M.E. Bunch of Morons with plenty of land and nothing to contribute to humanity. It is just sad.
7. THE GOLAN HEIGHTS NEVER BELONGED TO SYRIA !
FO ,   Belgium   (03.29.19)
If US President Trump decided to recognize the Golan Heights as Israeli territory, it is because he and the American Administration knew very well that the Golan Heights NEVER were part of Syrian real estate. This is the conclusion of an American Special Report made for the "Center for Security Policy" by 4 generals, 2 admirals, 4 acting, deputy, assistant Secretaries of Defense, and last but not least, the author of UNSC Resolution 242. The conclusion of this Report sounds: "A Mandate is a Trust, according to ART. 80 of the UN Charter. Israel's decision to impose its Laws on the Golan Heights on December 14, 1981, had eventually RIGHTED the WRONG that was committed by the British in March 1923... The Golan Heights as they are known TODAY were never part of Syrian real estate, but part of the Palestine Mandate." Reminder: The Mandate for Palestine was the territory voted unanimously by the League of Nations to become the independent Jewish state, a decision reaffirmed by Article 80 of the UN Charter. Now,
"In a letter seen by AFP, the Syrian mission to the United Nations asked the council presidency, held by France, to schedule an urgent meeting to "discuss the situation in the occupied Syrian Golan". France that had accepted in total knowledge, from Britain, in 1923, a stolen property from the Jewish people, the Golan Heights (see "the Mandate for Palestine") as compensation for having transferred Mossul and its oil fields from Syria under French Mandate to Iraq under british Mandate!
