. On Saturday, just three days before the vote, Mr. Netanyahu raised the prospect of an even more controversial move ahead, promising to annex Jewish settlement blocs in the occupied West Bank if he is returned to the prime minister’s office.
But peace efforts have been dormant for some time, and Mr. Trump, who received multiple standing ovations from the Republican Jewish Coalition on Saturday in Las Vegas for his actions toward Israel, has yet to reveal his own plan for resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Mr. Trump has not only taken Israel’s side over Jerusalem and Golan, he has also cut off U.S.
Mr. Gantz on Sunday dismissed Mr. Netanyahu’s annexation proposal as an “irresponsible” bid to win votes. Mr. Gantz said his own preference was to see an internationally backed peace process, rather than unilateral moves. More than 400,000 Israelis live in several dozen settlement blocs scattered around the West Bank, which is also home to 2.9 million Palestinians. B’Tselem, an Israeli human-rights group, estimates that Israeli settlements cover about 10 per cent of the territory of the West Bank.
It is just to win elections.
It’s unreachable with him at the helm and tRUMP in the WH! It will be a life of terrorism, arrests, murders and no peace for either side! All to win an election! SAD!
👎🏽🖕🏽👎🏽🖕🏽🤮🤢
