On Tuesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu paid a rare visit to the occupied Golan Heights, peering across the nearby border into Syria and warning Israel’s enemies not to “test” its resolve.
Netanyahu was accompanied to a hilltop observation point, some three kilometres (two miles) from a 1974 ceasefire line, by his security cabinet. He has been cautioning against any attempt by Iran to deepen its military foothold in Syria or construct missile factories in neighboring Lebanon.
Netanyahu, very assertively told in broadcast remarks that, "We seek peace but are prepared for any scenario and I wouldn’t suggest to anyone that they test us.”
