    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pledged Tuesday to name a new town in Golan Heights after President Donald Trump in a gesture of gratitude for the United States' recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the region.


    The announcement came during Netanyahu's visit, alongside his wife and sons, to the nation's northern region, the Jerusalem Post reported.

    "I'm here on the beautiful Golan Heights. All Israelis were deeply moved when President Trump made his historic decision to recognize Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights," the prime minister said. "Therefore, after the Passover holiday, I intend to bring to the government a resolution calling for a new community on the Golan Heights named after President Donald J. Trump."

    The Golan Heights was always part of Israel historically. They have to own it in today's world or the Arabs will use it as an artillery platform to shell the residential communities below.
