The international community considers Israeli settlements in the Golan Heights illegal under international law, but the Israeli government disputes this.[2]

History

The gar'in that established Sha'al was formed in 1976 in protest at a UN resolution condemning Israel. They were initially based in an army base in Quneitra before moving to the site of Sha'al in 1980 at a time when the Golan Heights was a part of the Israeli Military Governorate. The name of the moshav is an Hebrew acronym of: ("שב עם לאדמתו")[3] "Shav Am LeAdmato." ("Returned the people to its land."). In 1981, the area of Golan was unilaterally annexed by Israel, abolishing military occupation system and imposing Israeli civil rule on the area.

gollark: Ah. Nobody knows that. Except lemmmy himself, and even then not really; it's due for a bit of an overhaul, but since it mostly works and lemmmy hadn't enough free time, it's not gotten one.
