The book, “The Importance of the Golan Heights from the Perspective of Israel’s Security and Its Survival” was unveiled at a ceremony attended by advisers to the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the President, the ambassadors of Palestine and Syria, representatives of Islamic Resistance groups and a group of senior government officials. This book was published by the Abna al-Rasul Institute with the participation of the Political Office of the al-Nujaba Islamic Resistance Movement in Iran and the Committee for the Support of the Islamic Revolution of the Palestinian People.
Brigadier-General Dr. Hoseyn Dehqan, the advisor to the commander-in-chief in the defence industry, was another speaker at the ceremony. He praised the great position of the martyrs, founders and commanders of the Islamic Resistance and said, “The geography of the Golan Heights is related to Syria but its essence is related to Palestine. In fact, by occupying Arab lands such as the Golan Heights, Israel attempted to expand and establish a security belt in order to both impose its influence and domination on the Islamic world and to prevent others from reaching its vital points.”
Brigadier-General Dehqan emphasized that “Israel is an illegitimate regime without a nation and a motherland that has imposed its domination over the occupied territories by force of arms” and said, “The dear author has made a good effort to compile this book and has dealt with the main aspects of the importance of the Golan Heights and the view of the Zionist regime towards this region. The Golan Heights is of great geopolitical, political, economic, tourist, military interest and has vital resources for the occupying regime. In other words, the Israeli occupation of the Golan Heights perpetuates the regime.”
Referring to Syria’s historic stand on the front lines of the battle against Israel, he said, “Today, the warriors are proud of the Islamic Resistance that has achieved power that has humiliated the Zionist regime and the Israeli army, despite calling itself the fourth most powerful army in the world, has raised the hand of surrender against the Gaza Strip.
