Israel readying to annex West Bank, implement two-state solution (both controlled by Israel)
In the next couple of weeks, Israel is planning to formally annex the West Bank, effectively taking that land from the Palestinian people who live there and absorbing it into Greater Israel.
A source told Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh that Israel has been so “fortified by bombs and funding” from the United States that it is now ready to expel the Palestinians not only from the West Bank but also from northern Gaza.
Some of the more religious members who “dominate” Netanyahu’s cabinet are flat-out calling for Israel to take both the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in their entirety in order to massively increase the size of Greater Israel.
“I was told this week by a well-informed Washington official that the Israeli leadership will formally annex the West Bank in the very near future – perhaps in two weeks – in the hope that the decisive step will end, once and for all, any talk of a two-state solution and will convince some in the skeptical Arab world to reconsider financing the planned reconstruction of Gaza,” Hersh wrote in an article.
(Related: Back in October, Netanyahu made it clear that he is not interested in any further negotiations for peace – Israel wants that land, period, and it plans to take it all by force.)
Trump to inherit brand-new Israel
All of this is scheduled to take place before President-elect Trump is installed in January while President Biden is still in office. That way there will already be a new “reality on the ground” in Israel by the time Trump is inaugurated.
Trump will basically be inheriting a whole new Israel whose borders will be much larger than they are currently by the time he makes his way into the Oval Office. This will expand upon what Trump did for Israel during his first term by recognizing Israel’s then-annexation of the Golan Heights, not to mention his moving of the U.S. embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
While Hamas is the Palestinian faction that rules in Gaza, it is the Fatah that currently controls the West Bank. And the Fatah is currently at odds with Hamas, which makes this annexation agenda even more contentious.
After the 1949 conflict that ultimately ended with the re-creation of Israel following many generations of it not existing, Egypt and Jordan annexed Gaza and the West Bank, respectively, though the newly formed Israeli state remained in control of most of the Mandate for Palestine territory.
In 1967, Israel recaptured both the West Bank and Gaza, which are both currently recognized under international law as occupied territories, meaning the people now in charge (Israel) are occupying land that the Mandate for Palestine says belongs to the Palestinian people.
Multiple United Nations (UN) resolutions are calling for an independent Palestinian state to be established in both the West Bank and Gaza.
“Trump will say nothing and Netanyahu knows it,” one commenter wrote. “Palestine is gone. The only problem is what to do with the remaining Palestinians? Where to allocate them?”
“Israel has killed more Palestinians than the number of people killed at the start of WW2,” wrote another – so far, about 44,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children, have died at the hands of Israel since Oct. 7, 2023.
“This is why our rulers will install Trump,” wrote another about how Trump’s reelection is about the best news Israel could have received as far as getting what they want in the Middle East. “He will condone it.”
“Hersh ‘leaks’ information that the U.S. wants revealed,” suggested another about what the other “side” could be planning. “Seems they are trying to spark a massive war before Biden leaves office.”
