Syria Policy Differences
The article argues that Gadi Eisenkot and Benjamin Netanyahu agree that the Golan Heights is Israeli territory and not open to negotiation, and that Mount Hermon and the buffer zone should remain under Israeli control. They also link Israel’s security to protecting the Druze in Sweida. Eisenkot, however, calls for negotiations to amend the 1974 Disengagement Agreement and makes the withdrawal of Turkish and Russian forces from Syria a condition. Netanyahu, by contrast, considers the agreement void and favors a demilitarized zone in southern Syria and a security belt, without calling for Russian forces to leave. The article concludes that their differences may be more about approach than substance, and asks whether Eisenkot would return to the 1974 agreement or continue Netanyahu’s policy of maintaining Israeli control and carrying out incursions.
