Israel stakes claim to Golan after oil find

Israel stakes claim to Golan after oil find





Jonathan Cook, journalist



My latest for Middle East Eye:
Netanyahu sounded out Obama at their meeting this week on US recognition
of Israel's illegal annexation of the Golan. It may not have been
coincidental that an oil company announced last month it had found
"billions of barrels" of oil under the Israeli-occupied Syrian
territory.<
