This is a momument in Northern Israel right near the Syrian border in an area called the Golian Heights. It is a mountain or hill once part of Syria. Syria surprise attacked Israel from here in 1974 and drove into Israel. After 7 days, the Israelis pushed them back and took this heavily fortified hill. We saw all the bumkers and walked thru them. It's like a gettysberg for Israel. Syria wants the land back, but Israel is not about to give it. It's high, Syria has repeatedly lobbed rockets and stuff from here at Israel.
