suggest the shabaa farms<br/>
of which there are reportedly 14 in all that are<br/>
claimed in varying degrees by 3 countries<br/>
must occupy a definite & likely contiguous area on one<br/>
side or the other of either illb or ilsy or lbsy<br/>
depending on how anyone prefers to look at them all<br/>
<br/>
this best known map <br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.mapi.gov.il/maps/100/zft.jpg">http://www.mapi.gov.il/maps/100/zft.jpg</a><br/>
shows shabaa itself as a well defined locality a hair<br/>
southeast of grid intersection 306x220 <br/>
or about 3km nw of the southern terminus on mount<br/>
hermon of the defacto illbsy triline <br/>
aka illbun or illbsyuns<br/>
shown there as a trijunction of the magenta illb & the<br/>
slate blue ilun & the funny black lbun line<br/>
 <br/>
the map also shows this shabaa to lie about 15km ne of<br/>
the dejure illbsy tripoint<br/>
which is at the tip of the fingerlike proruption just<br/>
west of grid intersection 294x209<br/>
<br/>
it is possible that the 14 farms extend for 3km to<br/>
reach the triline<br/>
or even for 15km in the other direction also to reach<br/>
the dejure tripoint<br/>
<br/>
indeed this map suggests the farms may extend from the<br/>
triline to the tripoint & even beyond<br/>

<br/>
but can anyone find a good enough map or text<br/>
describing the farms themselves to tell if the parcel<br/>
of land they comprise actually abuts either the<br/>
triline or the tripoint<br/>
rather than just adjoining or approaching a portion of<br/>
the intervening boundary<br/>
<br/>
the topology of such a triarea interrelating with a<br/>
triline & or a tripoint might be quite interesting &<br/>
unusual<br/>
if this can indeed be positively established<br/>
