Israel will not miss a 'historic opportunity' to extend its sovereignty to parts of the West Bank, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday, calling the move one of his new government's top tasks.

Palestinians consider such a step as illegal annexation of occupied land they seek for a future state. Last week, they declared an end to security cooperation with Israel and its ally, the United States, in protest at the territorial plan. U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has called the matter complex and said it required coordination with Washington. Netanyahu’s new political partner, centrist Benny Gantz, has been equivocal about de facto annexation.

“We have a historic opportunity, which hasn’t existed since 1948, to apply sovereignty judiciously as a diplomatic...step in Judea and Samaria,” he said, referring to the year of Israel’s birth and using the biblical names for the West Bank.

it is expecting a RACIST n fascist .pM of q jews astate.

If they need to have America buy every dam jew on earth a hazmat suit so be it, they are going to rob those olive eating arabs till the last branch

Of course he won't. Trying to be as populist as possible now to deflect attention away from his corrupt activities trial.

Annexation? Natenyahu means the stealing of Palestinian lands.....a word used by U.S.,its media & Israeli surrogates both Republicans & Dems.Yes, in actual fact ...it is called stealing.

You can't have a Jewish state if you gobble up Palestinian land. Just give it a few decades and see what happens. Be content with what you have else your grandchildren may lose it all. The right thing to do also happens to be the smart thing to do.

No masks needed:

Have many Israelis been liberated from the concentration camps to annex foreign territory? .... or can only the old ones remember? (become less and less) With these demands and behavior Israel equates with Russia. - where is the will for peace, for peaceful coexistence?

And good for you Netanyahu, congratulations on a fifth term. May the Gods of ancient Egypt come in the night and strip you of your skin

free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

Netanyahu is just a wannabe Dictator like Trump Now UN & EU Must Kick Him Out & Sanction Him for trying to Take over Palestinia REMIND him there’s a Treaty! BBC InternationalCrimeCourt UNSecurityCouncil EUpress AngelaMerkel EmmanuelMacron

Netanyahu admits war crimes and Israeli Lebensraum.

And Palestinians will just idly let you do this? Blood will be on your hands on both sides of the fence for stoking the fire

How ironic. A group that constantly kvetches about a supposed genocide from 70+ years ago is totally ruthless & unapologetic in their own campaign of ethnic cleansing & genocide in the present day. Then Jews have the gall to turn around & lecture white people about tolerance!

Perhaps, Trump wants to see this get done before November!

Can we make CCP give everyone in the US a $2000 monthly universal income until the pandemic ends? '...any piece of information which could cast a bad light on the communist party, even if it's information about a health emergency, should be suppressed.'

This is no different than Nazi Germany annexing the Sudetenland in 1938.

Piece of 💩.

This how the Israelis keep stealing the Palestinian land ..

Wow. Quite the headline.

He will, however, no doubt miss the irony of this photo coupled with that statement.

Hopefully he gets annexed. Fuck that guy.

The 'peace process' has always been a dog and pony show to play for time while they slowly incorporate Palenstinian lands outside of their charter. There will always been another slight or threat to cancel them.

It's okay for the world to quietly see the slow extermination of the Palestinian people and yet the world wants us to always keep the tragedy of the events of WWII. Truly pathetic and hypocritical are the policies of the state of Israel and USA.

This man is an asshole.

Imperialist War Criminal right there.

how is it not a declaration of war to steal another countries land?

Big mistake. This puts Israelis at risk too from tensions due to this aggravating action

This guy is a criminal

Blatant robbery.

IsraeliPM is one of the most crooked, corrupted and manipulative PMs in the world?

Israel failed big time when they gave back the Sinai penisula to misri.... you couldn't be having this havoc

'Netanyahu has cited U.S President Donald Trump's plan for Israeli-Palestinian peace as underpinning de facto annexation.' Thanks Drumpf

global mafia !!actively support a Jewish return to the Land of Israel, along with the parallel idea that the Jews ought to be encouraged to become Christians as a means of fulfilling Biblical

Corrupt leader trying hard to hang on to the power... as corrupt as realDonaldTrump

Megalomaniac. Perhaps it was Gods joke on Hitler, to reincarnate him as a Jew. (Don't dare to say this is anti Semitic just because that word appears!)

Distract distract distract where have we seen this before

I love to see this drama... Just give some help to other side too and make it more entertaining. Because they have only stones.

Why?

The annexation word endlessly makes me thinking of the annexation of a big part of my country, France, by the Nazis! Does that word sound the same for you?

Giant killer of humanity, Hitler was right about you ,must have done something better than what he did to your generation.

exact reason ALL funding to him/them needs to stop.... why should we bank roll human rights violations?

'opportunity' -- LOL -- one that he knowingly created and now claims he wants to follow through on like it's some act of the deity or a birthday cake someone brought him? fucking nonsense.

Take every opportunity to create disunity for the sake of uniting the far right to prop up his failed coalition

He shouldn't miss visiting the jail also.
