Hezbollah Attacks ‘Trump Heights’ in Occupied Golan Day After U.S. Election
Trump is seen as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's choice for president
Hezbollah fighters carried out a missile attack Wednesday on a section of the occupied Golan called “Trump Heights,” an illegal settlement constructed shortly after the pro-Israel extremist Trump administration recognized the Golan Heights as Israel’s.
IRNA reported that six explosions were heard in the vicinity of the stolen land. There were no reports of injuries.

Trump was the candidate of choice among the Jewish supremacists in the Israeli Knesset because, as president, he withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, moved the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, and recognized the Golan Heights as being part of Israel, despite international law.
Miriam Adelson’s late husband, Sheldon, a casino billionaire, gave Trump’s campaign $90 million in 2020 in exchange for a promise to move the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, reports said.
The widow was a major donor to Trump during the 2024 campaign. The New York Times called her a “political carbon copy of her husband: intensely pro-Israel, rabidly partisan, and a believer in the nobility of using her money, north of $30 billion, and her beauty empire to buy influence and shape the world.”
David Friedman, Trump’s former pro-Israel extremist ambassador to Israel, posted at the time: “It’s a great recognition of the president’s courageous decision to recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.”

Friedman said he aims to persuade Trump to support Israel’s annexation of the West Bank based on the U.S.’s “biblical” duty.
Friedman argues in his new book, “One Jewish State: The Last, Best Hope to Resolve the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict,” that Washington should support Israel’s annexation “based first and foremost on biblical prophecies and values.”
He told The Forward that he will share his annexation plan with Trump “at the appropriate time,” according to The Middle East Eye.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken struck an optimistic tone last week when describing the ceasefire negotiations to bring an end to the fighting between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon.
“Based on my recent trip to the region, and the work that’s ongoing right now, we have made good progress on those understandings,” he said, referring to a deal that would force
Hezbollah to uproot itself from near Israel’s northern border—and move at least 18 miles north, past the Litani River.
Blinken admitted that there is more work that needs to be done.
Hezbollah and Israel have been engaging in a slow-burning conflict since the Hamas attack on 7 October 2023. The Lebanese group said it will defend the Palestinians in Gaza and that there will be no business as usual in Israel as the mass killings persist. Israel managed to kill top Hezbollah leadership, but the group has remained steadfast in its mission.
Blinken said the focus of the negotiations has been on the UN Security Council’s 2006 resolution 1701, which has been called the “linchpin of peace between Israel and Lebanon for almost two decades.”
TRENDPOST: Like clockwork, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office made Blinken expose the Blinken Bullshit saying that there was no quick fix to the conflict.
