Ibrahim Said’s book sheds light on historical, geographical and economic importance of the Golan

Culture

In his book “The Golan between Reality and Options for Investigation,” Dr. Ibrahim Ahmed Saeed illustrates that the occupied Syrian Golan possesses exceptional natural and economic characteristics, in terms of its location, resources, heritage, and importance to Syria and the Arab cause in general.

The book indicated that the Golan is the first issue of the Syrians, and its liberation is their greatest concern, pointing out that the elimination of terrorism and the liberation of the rest of the Syrian lands is an option that is complemented by the return of the Golan by any means, as it is the southwestern part of the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic, which extends from the foothills of Mount Hermon to the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan River.

The book issued by the Arab Writers Union pointed out that the Arab tribes settled in the Golan in the past, including Canaanites and Arameans, and established multiple urban centers and several Arab kingdoms, such as the kingdom of “Gishur” and the state of the Ghassanids and others, in addition to the presence of fertile agricultural soils, and the availability of water with the distinguished geographical location between Lebanon, Jordan and  Palestine.

The 80-page book  indicated that the Pharaonic sources confirm that the Golan was part of the Amorite state thousands of years before Christ, and was subjected to the invasions and occupations that invaded Syria, and was recently affected by the results of the Sykes-Picot Agreement and French colonialism. The Golan was then an example of the Syrian popular and national resistance against the colonialists, rejecting the occupation and the Zionist gangs, and insisting on sticking to the Syrian land and identity.

According to the researcher, Dr. Saeed, the name Golan came in Arabic from the verb to roam, and the Golan comes to mean dust, and in Aramaic it means roaming or urbanization, indicating that the Golan is an ancient land thousands of years old.
