Israeli media is reporting that Israel’s Defense Minister Benny Gantz is promoting the construction of almost 5,000 new homes in West Bank settlements, which would be the first construction of its kind after a six-month freeze.
Reports say Gantz is expected to bring his plan to a construction committee next week, whose approval is necessary to move forward. Despite the freeze on settlement construction and the coronavirus pandemic, Israel has demolished a record number of Palestinian homes in the West Bank and East Jerusalem this year.
Gantz’s move is seen as an effort to gain favor from settler leaders, who are unhappy with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s recent decision to pause annexation of parts of the West Bank to normalize relations with the UAE. Netanyahu says that despite the deal, annexation is “still on the table,” but the settlers and hard-right members of the Knesset do not seem to have much faith in the prime minister.
Gantz and Netanyahu agreed to a power-sharing deal after three back to back elections gave neither politician a clear victory. Under the agreement, Gantz will serve as the defense minister until November 2021, when he will take over as prime minister.
Another round of elections before the power transfer is expected, as Netanyahu and Gantz are at odds over the state budget. If a budget is not approved, it means another round of elections could be held. The deadline for either a new election or budget approval has been pushed back to December 23rd.
Will the ethnic cleansing stop in the West Bank or look with envy at neighboring countries?
Heartless bastards.

Gantz is going to out-hardline Netanyahu. Never saw that coming. Bibi’s too soft on Lebensraum and the final solution to the Palestinian question.
Gantz/Netanyahu = Trump/Biden
They certainly learned well from the Nazi’s.
Israelis are not doing the same thing that the Nazis did. It’s Palestinian terrorists who are doing what the Nazis did. The Nazis were trying to exterminate the Jews. It’s Palestinian terrorists who are trying to exterminate the Jews. Palestinian terrorists are the new Nazis.
The Nazis were committing genocide. Israelis are defending themselves from genocide.
Jews were not firing unguided rockets at German population centers – a crime against humanity. Palestinian terrorists have fired thousands of unguided rockets at innocent Israelis. Jews were not setting German crops on fire – a war crime. Palestinian terrorists have set Israeli crops on fire with fire kites, fire balloons & fire birds. Jews were not paying people to kill Germans. The Palestinian Authority is paying people to murder Jews. The more Jews they kill, the more money they get. More money than judges or doctors. That’s racism! That’s genocide.
Show me the crematoria, the labor camps, the gas chambers in Israel. Show me the medical “experiments” performed on “Palestinians” by Israel, and show me the gold teeth extracted from the corpses’ mouths.
How are things at Tel Aviv University with the Covid19? Are you paid well?

They’re just not very good at it. It isn’t for a lack of trying.
and the world stands by without lifting a finger or raising a voice on behalf of the Palestinian people who are being robbed of their land and subjected to internationally condoned genocide by the Israeli Government under the protection of the mentally deranged psychopath Donald Trump………. How sad!!
