It also approved a proposal to establish four new settlements on the Golan Heights within the next two weeks-a move that will make any future territorial negotiations with Syria considerably more difficult. The Cabinet issued a stern warning that "Israel will deem Syria responsible for any murderous activity perpetrated by terrorists coming from Syrian territory."
