It is the map of the entire State of Israel. You haven't looked at any offical Israeli maps recently. They include the Golan Heights as well. And no acknowledgement of the separation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Everybody in the Middle East plays games with maps.

I think you should continue to look for Diogenes... and maybe find out the difference between a physical and a political map.
The Israeli one you posted is of the first type, it shows the region's physical features, not its administrative division.
The Palestinian authority's maps posted by others are of the second type.
Pretty substantial difference, isn't it?

Every map I have seen here except the satellite map shows the Area the Jews have agreed to "trade" for peace. The Golan they have never traded, it is just shows designated as "the Golan", not Israel. Islamics lie, all the time.

Why do you consider the Golan Heights to be a part of Syria? What special claim to that land does Syria have, other than precedent? Syria launched a war for territory and it lost... so it lost some territory. Territory that had been used to launch Katyusha rocket artillery on Israel.
