Peaceful negotiations with Jordan, Egypt and Syria would help settle things in Iraq and Iran thus helping Israel when the US withdraws from Iraq. Is this option (above) helpful to all parties?

Israel has already bargained away far too much land for peace. It was a stupid idea to start with, and it gets more insane every time it is proposed. If there still isn't peace after the pullout from Gaza and the attempted pullout from Judea and Samaria (which will still come to pass if the locals ever decide to conduct themselves like human beings) haven't done the trick, what makes you think the Golan will do so?

Will they or should they? This is probably one of the biggest issues that Syria has with Israel. Although it was part of biblical Israel it really should be returned to Syria since it was captured in 1967. This seems to be the view of the United Nations as well.
Now, it probably means much more to Syria than Israel since there really isn't a lot going on there these days anyhow. Israel has a working peace with Egypt currently, and they were in a similar situation with the Sinai peninsula.
In the interest of peace with its neighbors, I believe Israel shouldn't have more land than its people currently need since it was basically drawn in on top of other countries less than 100 years ago. Many people, including many Orthodox Jews feel that move was a big mistake, but since it can't be undone now, the best thing to do is to compromise.

Israel is prepared to barter for peace with Syria. top Minister initiate prolonged Israeli regulation to the Golan many years in the past. The Golan has Jewish connections, it became given by using mistake to Syria by using the former colonial powers, the Golan has super strategic fee for the defence of Israel, subsequently it would be a countrywide suicide to furnish it up for a Chamberlain sort of ineffective paper. it incredibly is incredibly worth to combat for it 2d time on the negotiating table!

No,it will not...I think Israel proved so many times that for it peace is not an option...
Yes,it would be helpful to all parties,but for this Israel should give back lands that it illegally occupies and as Israel showed this is not an option...
But I still think that the first step to stability in the Middle East would be for Israel to withdraw from all the occupied territories and go back to the borders from 1967.The creation of a Palestinian state is the first step for Israel to achieve peace...

no Israel should not withdraw from Golan heights because then it will be vulnerable to war from Syria. even if there is peace Syria will not honor it...just like the Palestinians don't honor any seize fires even after the disengagement from the lands next to Gaza.

That would be suicidal. Every part of Israel is reachable by the weapons Islam has if they have access to the Golan Heights. They would be destroyed in a decade.
That's why Islam wants it so.

No I think that is a bad idea and a peaceful negotiation is not possible.

Israeli leaders and the Israeli lobby are making a living out of war making in the Middle east.
