Syria to issue ID cards to Golan residents
2007-10-24
DAMASCUS - Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has ordered ID cards to be granted to Syrians citizens living in the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights, the state news agency SANA reported on Tuesday. “The Syrian president has issued orders to grant Syrian ID cards to Syrian citizens of the occupied Golan Heights,” the official news agency reported.

The move aims to “ease the suffering” of the Druze people living on the Golan, caused by “harassment and Israeli human rights violations,” SANA added.
Funny, haven't heard the Druze complaining about their situation ...
More than 18,000 Syrians -- most of them Druze, a sect of Islam -- live on the Golan and have refused to take Israeli nationality.
