So is this going to actually lead to anything? They were whining earlier this month and were saying they were going to secede, but then nothing happened.

Yeah, nothing's happened... but I believe that damned area is untenable

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_District_(Israel)

Ethnic: Arabs: 816,800 (53.5%) Jews: 647,500 (42.4%) Others: 63,500 (4.2%) In the Israeli census, no distinction is made between Arab citizens of Israel and Syrian inhabitants of the Golan Heights, many of whom are not citizens of Israel, but of Syria.

Yeah, unless you want some extra missles coming from Syria, I'm pretty sure the settlement is stuck at there...

This is where Margaliot is, where the article takes place: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Margaliot,+Israel/@33.2059316,35.5195983,12.89z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x151e97f4ae24feab:0x3e305839be131041!8m2!3d33.216474!4d35.544354!16zL20vMDdkX3p0?entry=ttu

I don’t think Syria is in a position to fire missiles at Israel unfortunately. And I think that’s one of the reasons why Palestinians aren’t very fond of Assad.

Still? Maldita... still, my point stands, I don't think Israel can stretch themselves further north... with Hezbollah rightfully targetting their settlers...
