3. Israel offered the Golan for peace years ago - but Syria wanted "waters edge"

so as to be able to choke Israel's water coming from the Golan. Israel wanted to keep a strip a few hundred yards wide deep along the shore.

So this is not about land - it is about being able to hurt Israel post the "peace" with Syria - a peace that will be broken by Syria rather quickly as they help the resident Hamas group in their objective to destroy the Jewish State of Israel.
