    Is that is why the US was one of the major contributors to its foundation?

    In another thread someone pointed out that Dick Cheney (and others) is directly linked to an oil company (Genie energy) that is exploring oil reserves in the Golan Heights

    Because you stated this,
    But the UN is intended by globalists to be an intermediate step towards a world government
    when in fact it was created to stop wars through diplomacy and was formed with major contributions by the US. I countered your false rhetoric with the fact it was formed by the US, since you are well aware across numerous posts I support the UN to suggest I was hating on the US for creating something I agree with just shows what you are!

    Guarantee: American involvement in foreign wars will end the moment all the profit is taken out of war.

    You inserted the US into a topic where it was not needed

    I gave you the original goal of the UN

    But globalists have much more ambitious ideas for the UN

    Is profit the reason for all the wars around the world?

    Yep, but Israel won't use nukes on Syria in the situation outlined in the OP, I think.

    Yep ... in the conventional normal case not and in the conventional normal case, the Israelis are also conventionally so incredibly superior that the Syrians and their supporters have zero chances.
    But let them use poison gas against Israel ... then 1 week later the Israeli flag blows in Damascus or Syria becomes Ground Zero!

    A recap from Wiki, I see.

    However, I am not unaware of the background and it massively more complex than a brief and confirmation biased reading of Wiki suggests.

    Also, I watched the war unfold at the time. Israel's pre-emptive attack on Egypt came as a great surprise to one and all.

    Or actually not:

    Actually, Israel had prepared the ground for the 1967 war - which it started because it intended to occupy the lands it took in war including the Golan. These were the lands Israel desired in the Suez war of 1956 - aborted by America. Thereafter, Israel continually provoked its neighbours with military action to pressure them to start a war. failing that, it went for pre-emption having already secured the agreement of America to support it in that cynical attack.

    https://mondoweiss.net/2017/06/provoked-fighting-survival/

    The Israeli's knew for a fact that Egypt wasn't going to attack them and that they (the Egyptian's) had, at least, an arguable right to block the Straights of Tiran and that doing so was not, therefore, an Act of War.

    As Finkelstein reveals in another place and on another occasion (below) the six days war lasted six days (it was de facto done and dusted in a couple of hours) because it was an Israeli land grab. That's what the entire war was about. This has been outlined by no lesser authority than Moshe Dayan, the Israeli Minister of Defence during the 67' war:

    http://imemc.org/article/norman-fin...occupation-what-really-happened-in-june-1967/

    That it was and remains a land grab is clear and evident by the simple fact that the Golan is still held under an illegal occupation by Israel and that it has established dozens of settlements there as well as their plans to extract oil and water from that region (HERE).

    You guys can't even get Germany's tentacles out of your asses, I highly doubt you're going to do dick about the Golan Heights when the Israelis tell you to go **** yourselves.

    Perhaps recall that Britain is the reason we are dealing with this **** in the middle east in the first place as you people let Churchill get hammered and redraw the map based on his feelings rather than anything resembling the logical connections which would bind a nation together, not to mention it was you guys who put the Israeli's into record title of all that land in the first place.

    A bit of reality:

    If the US does declare the Golan Heights part of Israel, the Russian guards and posts protecting Israel from Hezbollah will undoubtably be removed. Russia is what's holding them back, and with Syria's S 300 now functioning, and Russian soldiers embedded with the Syrians, bombing Syria might be an expensive alternative for them.

    1) Syria did not sign the Golan over to Israel - and your quote certainly does not claim otherwise
    2) The UN is an arbiter of international Law and a source of international law - especially in relation to war - such as the UN Security council.

    No. Syria is not suicidal. Syria (read Assad) is in the right. It has now withstood several years of American-backed treachery mostly thanks to support from Russia, Iran, and off-and-on Turkey. With such effective support, Assad might be overly confident but he is not suicidal.

    A very interesting perspective. The outstanding thing about Putin is that he plans for every possibility and he holds his cards very close to his chest. Nobody knows how much he knows. The American leadership is fully aware of this and they are scared shytless.

    I have breaking news for you. The Russian guards and posts certainly protect something somewhere, but that something is not Israel.

    It literally blows my mind that so many people, even among those who see themselves as stalwart defenders of democracy and freedom, are willingly submitting to the authority of an unelected, fundamentally undemocratic body like the UN.
