Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has chosen a site in the Golan Heights to be named after President Trump.

Bloomberg reports a location has been identified by Netanyahu and he will ask the cabinet to approve it in the coming weeks.

The name for the new town has yet to be announced. The town will be named after Trump to honor him for officially recognizing Israeli control over the long-disputed territory between Israel and Syria.

Trump made the announcement in March, giving Israel a major victory in the region and angering neighboring Syria.

1. OK this is really from The Onion n/t

[madaboutharry]

2. This is all kinds of wrong.

All that Trump and Netanyahu have done for the peace process is act as agitators. It is a pity. I fear that any chance for a negotiated peace slipped away a long time ago.

3. One thing I never

took Netanyahu for is a brown noser. This is the epitome of brown nosing.

[highplainsdem]

12. He knows what Trump likes.

[Chipper Chat]

4. My suggestion for the town name is....

Syriasly tRump

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

26. My suggestion: tRumpsterFireville

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[Hoyt]

5. Almost everybody else in world is removing trump's name. . . . . .

[davepdx]

6. As long as it is a waste dump.

[GemDigger]

7. I was thinking a sewage treatment center. nt

8. Maybe Trump will be so happy to be finally loved he'll move there

Hey one can dream

[ancianita]

10. Better than Moscow. At least he can be extradited. My dream, too.

[Totally Tunsie]

9. tRumpie better enjoy the recognition Israel gives him because he damn sure

won't be getting any U.S. territory named for him.

Hmmm...I think Asshole, Israel, has a nice ring to it.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

16. Someone in the comments section of The Hill suggested

Golan Showers

[Totally Tunsie]

18. Perfect, and oh so clever!

[Judi Lynn]

27. Cool! Thanks. n/t

[BlueWI]

11. Weird.

Sad too.

[edbermac]

13. The first building just went up.

[PennyK]

14. I know what it'll be called

The Trump Dump!

[groundloop]

21. I was thinking 'The Tiny Dump'

[keithbvadu2]

15. Trump can send his C'ville Nazis over to celebrate with their 'ovens' comments.

17. No push back from Israeli citizens? We're taking down the name 'Trump' on all buildings in U.S.

[emmaverybo]

25. I hate to break it to you, but many Israelis think anti-Trumpism is anti-Israel.

[YOHABLO]

36. So would you like to back up that condescending statement with some facts? Did your own polling?

[Thomas Hurt]

19. would seem to me that this would just make it bigger target than others...(smh)

bibi might as well as have fellated Trump on national tv.

He is smart though, he knows how to feed Trump's pathology.

[democratisphere]

20. Borowitz? Onion? Alternative facts? Real fake news?

WTF. You mean this is really happening?

[TheCowsCameHome]

22. "Shithole" has already been taken. So sorry.

[johannsyah]

23. is Netanyahu drunk or something?

[Judi Lynn]

28. Welcome to D.U., johannsyah.

[emmaverybo]

24. I think this unholy alliance could get us into a terrible conflict with Iran. Both are unsavory

and corrupt men. Netanyahu lobbied for us to go in to Iraq. He has called Iran an existential threat to Israel and did all he could to try to undermine the agreement with them. Their connection is horrifying for our prospects for world peace.

[Scarsdale]

29. Hopefully a place befitting

our orange anus, such as the local DUMP.

[rockfordfile]

30. So he's naming after a Hitler wannabe

[LuvNewcastle]

31. He should out up a hotel in Megiddo.

That would be fitting.

[Vinca]

32. Hmmm. Pussygrabberville would sure be a catchy name for a town.

[JohnnyRingo]

33. I'd write it in pencil if I were him.

He might want to reconsider by the time the dust settles on investigations. It's like naming a street after Jussie Smollett right after he was assaulted or the Felicity Huffman public library.

[louis-t]

34. Maybe the asshole should move there.

Put up all the gold signs he wants.

[lagomorph777]

35. The Sewage Treatment Plant in Irbid.

...it only has a 2.6 star rating, according to Google.

[Josiesdad]

37. Well... if he is lucky they put the Trump coat of arms over the door of a two holer

But, more likely it is just something very symbolic... perhaps a blonde toupee at the bottom of a piss bucket?
