From the Golan Heights


This is a photo taken looking eastward from the Golan Heights down into Syria. This was a region taken by Israel during at the end of the Six-Day war in 1967. The Golan Heights remain a territory under dispute between Syria and Israel. Look carefully at the center of this picture and you will see a cluster of white buildings. This is a UN peacekeeping force staioned here to monitor the border.
