They treat it very differently than the West Bank and Gaza. Israel is willing to give up those territories, but not the Heights.

I just thought it was odd for CNN to go out of its way to call it out in such a huge map, when it is totally unrelated to the conflict. Seemed a bit anti-Israel.

No need for us to fight over this. Minor observation by me.

    - Yep. It is not like Gaza or the West Bank. It is part of Israel now. Thus, CNN's bias. - NedoftheHill - 2:27pm 10/1/24
      - It’s not recognized as such by much of the world. In other words it’s in dispute like what Putie [LINK] - Frank L - 2:30pm 10/1/24

- This evening's attack on Israel is only important for one reason, i.e., whether it becomes a pretext - Cole - 1:09pm 10/1/24
  - Obama will never sanction any attack on Iran in any form... and his folks are running the show. - Curly1918 - 1:37pm 10/1/24
    - So you think we should go to war with Iran over Israel? - Frank L - 2:21pm 10/1/24
      - I see no need for us to get involved. Israel need only attack Iran's oil exporting capabilities. - Curly1918 - 2:42pm 10/1/24
        Agree we should not get directly involved to protect Israel. Should we though if they are on the - Frank L - 2:45pm 10/1/24
