Mapping Error
The airfield is actually located at 32.744187 35.673466, which can be found by scrolling north a bit, and clicking on the magenta airplane intended to show Al-Al Airport, OS73. These are both the same airport, but the name was changed when the Golan Heights were placed under Israeli law.
Administered by Israel
Fiq airport is under Israeli civilian control and has an Israeli ICAO identifier, but is located in the Golan Heights area, which is disputed with Syria.

I tried updating the coordinates using "32 47 11 N" as per the Israeli navigation chart on Wikipedia (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/10/FiqAerodromeChart.jpg/685px-FiqAerodromeChart.jpg) , and things kind of blew up (Chrome on Linux).
